Larry. Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Not sure if we should go outside Muse - at least we know everyone here likes them I fucking hate Muse. Also, there must be Biffy... and I think the final round should be a fairly unheard of song that has no tabs on the internet so that we get a chance to see peoples interpretation skills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave. Posted June 10, 2012 Author Share Posted June 10, 2012 But obviously we have to take other instruments into account again Well the main ones we have to take into account are Guitar, Bass, Drums, Piano and vocals. We'll sort something out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimboMansonMB-1 Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 One Direction covers Seriously. Here are some thoughts based on the last one: 1. Definitely do an anonymous Soundcloud entry system. Eliminates stupidity and favoritism 2. Someone else brought up the issue of "I like this song better, so I'll vote for that person." I know everyone likes their freedom (except North Koreans), but why not have everyone do the same song per round so it's actually a fair comparison? If we're eliminating the favoritism factor of videos, let's also eliminate the favoritism factor based on song choice. 3. I like the idea of bringing in more variety in band choices. Maybe some Foo Fighters or Biffy? They seem to be big, plus I'd enjoy voting on some The Captain covers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshyBarth Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 I'd love to do a Cover of Map of the Problematique :hint: And I'd be up for a bit of Foo Fighters/Biffy Clyro/QOTSA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will_ Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Personally I think there should be a choice of 4 other bands apart from mooz, Foos/Biffy/QOTSA/TCV Or replace one of them with Radiohead. TCV I honestly think should be there, they've got some challenging stuff and there's loads of room for improv, it'd be a good way to show off skillz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TCV I honestly think should be there, they've got some challenging stuff and there's loads of room for improv, it'd be a good way to show off skillz I don't know, I reckon we should have a set choice for a Muse song, and then be able to choose our own song from another band. And yes I know that it may encourage favouritism based on song choice, but it'd be much less restrictive, and we could always just encourage people to vote based on the skill of the cover, not the song.

JoshyBarth Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 You could always alternate Round 1 - Muse Round 2 - TCV Round 3 - Muse Round 4 - GSK Band Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But choosing our own would open up a huge can of worms, most people would have different stuff so it'd just be harder to vote. I like the idea of a set Muse choice and a set other band choice per round. But we need to find a way to make people vote purely for the playing/singing and not because of the songs...

Just have a single song each round - and say that we have 6 rounds? 3 Muse, 3 other bands, alternate each week Then they would have to vote based on the playing/singing You could even have a "free" round where people can do any song they want, if they think that they weren't able to do a song that they wanted - just incase Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But not choosing our own would open up a small can of bears, if you will. Because some people here don't listen to or particularly like TCV or QOTSA etc E.G.

Neil. Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 We just vote don't we? You should be the Soundcloud poster! Yeah use soundcloud. All entries uploaded as user1 /user 2 etc. no names I could be the soundcloud poster. Something like people email me their entries, and I post up the files. Should we have some sort of a constant for everyone, like a drumtrack? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't know about the Drum Track - People might be able to come up with different arrangements of a song But we should see what everyone else says Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil. Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Suggestion: Round 1 - Any track from Showbiz Round 2 - Any track from Newton Abbott Round 3 - Any track by a selection of bands (Biffy, Foos, QOTSA, Dead Weather) Round 4 - ????? Final - PROFIT!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
