EDIT: SEE HERE

I know it's way too early to start another one of these things, but I just came up with an idea for another compilation and wanted to see what you all thought.

Since there are so many talented people on this board, I think it would be interesting to do something where we are able to write our own material.

The project would go like this: When someone signs up for the compilation they would give a theme of a song. This theme can be anything as long as it's fairly appropriate. It can be simple like "toasters" or oddly specific like "Charlie Sheen tap dancing on Mount Kilimanjaro." After everyone has signed up, the person organizing the compilation would put all of the song themes in a hat and randomly assign them to the members. Everyone would then proceed to write a song at least loosely related to the theme.

Just an idea.

This sounds cool. But please, no more Charlie Sheen.

Yes, totally, lets do this.

Yeah.

Nice idea.

Potential to be an utterly ridiculous album, though!

And/or strangely poignant.

EDIT: I'm just signing Blackliner up for this. On the record, can he officially be the first one to have RSVP'd?

Sounds intriguing, count me in.

I'd probably be keen. But shouldn't we wrap up the Simon Joyner project first?

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

Kirkeby Kritikk • Kvitter

I'd be positively rabid for it. Agreed that we need to get Room Temperature done though!

Also, how cool would it be to have a tMG forums ensemble gig someday? I salivate at the prospect (strange frothing / dribbling theme going on here).

I also have a team project for us,
Goatseys Unite! We have to steal the declaration of independence.

Seriously, lets start this. I am dying for a project.
