Awesome. Someone just told me about this last week and I've been frantically hitting the refresh button to see my first challenge. Plus it's great to see Ben Kreiger on here, an old pal from the MP3.com days.

I look forward to participating :)

Well, welcome aboard. (Hopefully not 'a-bored'). If you haven't had a chance, why not introduce yourself in the "Introductions" thread on the boards (also, not 'bored).

Sorry... i'm tired...

I think I might be able to do this one! (long as I can stay sober this time...) Now that I'm free of the Nur Ein noose... ;)

edit: I went to your website & signed up but have yet to receive the confirmation email... and it won't let me log-in I guess without it...

Unfortunately not today. Work is either painfully slow or... well... painfully busy. Today is the later I'm sad to say.

I'm in, baby -- another one-hour wonder, but the lyrics need some work and it's in the wrong key. Damn you, ukulele tuning!

Ha. Yeah, just realized that I submitted a week early. I thought that I'd gotten it in just the nick of time. Well, maybe I'll be able to clean up my incredibly poor recording a little.

Took a break from my Lead Bass recording to work on this. I _think_ I've got a final mix, but I might re-record with a drummer.
