This months host is Slicer :)

The theme for February is 'The 2 Minute Acoustic Track', all songs must be played on Acoustic or Semi-Acoustic (an electric emulating an acoustic at a push), be a maximum of 2 minutes long, with no vocals, and the song must of been made for this comp, no previously made pieces of music.

As we've got this month started of early, you'll all have an extra bit of time to complete your entrys, the closing date will be the 18th of February, so thats nearly a whole month, and the poll with run for 7 days after then.

Best of luck to everyone, look forward to hearing your entrys, and again thank you to Slicer for hosting this months comp :thumb:

Does "no previously made music" mean original piece only, or not previously posted?

Not previously posted or created before the comp, originals and covers are fine, we just don't want ppl pulling out 5 year works of art for the occation :lol:

Come to think of it, thats about the average time it takes me to finish an original :brickwall: :lol:

well, I'd better LMAO and join in at some other fuckers expense. :lol: No, I don't think I will cos I don't get it.

On a far more interesting point, two minute acoustic sounds fun if I can stop from LMAO.

A few questions regarding the guidelines:

1. Can it have other instruments in it (i.e. bass, drums)?
2. Can it be multi-track (i.e. 2 acoustic guitar tracks or harmonies, etc.)?
3. Can I repost my entry 4 or more times over the coming year in the
general covers/originals section ? :notme:

I think we need an "in jokes" thread.

I have some questions:

Does it matter if your guitar isn't in tune ?
Does it matter if your guitar still only has 11 strings on it because you refuse to pay the extortionate fee to get the 12th tuning peg repaired ?
Does it matter if it isn't particularly any good ?

:lol:

:lol:

1. Not at all, aslong as its under 2 mins :D
2. Also not a problem, but i'd make sure you return that 12 Stringer to the guitar shop you loaned it from before they notice its broke :notme:
3. I've sumitted an entry, does that answer your question :lol:

Under 2 minutes ? That's a piece of piss !
I have been in disguise ever since the loan and the guitar has too, so we never get discovered
Not particularly - you are a good player !

Playing a two note song would qualify as under two minutes yes ? I may struggle with the dealine though...
I go by many aliases.
If I manage to get the acoustic out of the loft, I'll see what I can come up with. Heh heh heh. It will be fun-ny
