HEY, JOHN WON'T READ THIS THREAD thumbs down (forum covers project)

I honestly just don't know if we'll be able to do both - just doesn't seem like a lot of traffic around here at the moment. And yeah, I'd rather all of one than some of each. If it has to be one, which album would people prefer?




Me personally at this point I think I'd rather first make sure to cover AHWT with another whole thing being devoted to Tallahassee elsewhere - Mr. Glass' post was just a real forehead-smacking moment for me if you can't tell.

Seriously, let's just do AHWT. I support this 110%.

Behind the switch to AHWT as well; nothing's stopping me from doing a cover of "Chevy in Flames" on my own. winking smiley

Sounds good. Rather than waiting for everyone who selected a specific song to read the forum, I'm going to e-mail those people directly, update them, and ask them if they have a preference regarding AHWT.

Thanks, everyone.

Nigel and I can do "Source Decay", or a random one if need be! I'm sure you'll send the e-mail out soonly and I'll respond there, too. SO EXCITED FOR THIS.

I wonder if including the AHWT outtakes will make this an even more awesome and complete project?

that could be a nice little bonus, and open it up to more people, huh?

by the way guys, All Hail West Texas' birthday is this sunday.

Fun fact, it's the only full length album that's been released only on compact disc.

Heeeeeeeey Nutopia.

With the talk of emails (though now I read that you're only emailing people who selected Tallahassee songs) I'm wondering if my email went through. For the record, I'm still down for any song on AHWT.

Unless I can cover a song from WTO. But I'll have to make up new music, since it was never released. And new lyrics. And a title. But other than that, it'll be just like the original.

hey,

i've got you on the list. in retrospect, i probably should have been sending e-mail confirmations to everyone.

according to what i've got so far, all we need is one more person to sign up and we've got enough to do the track listing of the album.

attn: myopic mirror, i sent the e-mail out before you posted that; should have received it by that time. already had someone grab 'source decay' (popular request), so right now you're in the 'random assignment' list

in retrospect, after having identified the fact that i should have e-mailed people with confirmations, i should have made some sort of follow-up effort to actually confirm the people i've received e-mails from.

the following forum members are on the list: simonfox (who is the only other person i need to hear back from concerning the switch to AHWT), dtrom4, applesauce, shlack, betamax, Zopilote Steel, fivekidsdown429, nils., myopic mirror, SaveMeASeat, Redlandsman87, VagabondKing, and justin23000, Mr Glass.

IF ANYONE ELSE IS INTERESTED IN PARTICIPATING, PLEASE E-MAIL ME ASAP.

thanks!

Aw, so we're not going with the random collaboration idea? I like that idea.

Also, in Stockholm, Sweden currently, but wouldn't mind contributing to this (even if there's no collaborating), not sure if I'll be able to send any e-mails before I'm back in Norway sometime after Monday.


Why's everyone in this thread a f***ing Mountain Goats fan?!

WACO. you guys!! I just remembered Waco counts for this project.

Chris, if nobody has claimed it, can me and Ian (myopic mirror) do Waco? Pretty please with a mini-website on top?

Evil, the possibility of a collab might still be on.

It's something i'd be interested in, but i'd like to see what song i get first. I have a few solo ideas floating around that i might wish to exploit first, before setting it up for a cross-europe collab.

I am new, but AHWT is my favorite Mountain Goats album, and I need in if there is room.

Edit:
emailed!
