Re: A Grand Parade

They drew the shades today Not a cloud in the sky And they rolled me right up to the window Cause I’m a very important guy Can’t wait for the bands to come by They say that there’s a parade today Bu I can’t remember why And I’ve got a window seat For the Grand Parade With music and bright colors And...

Re: Rest In Peace

It was bitter sweet to log in today to see what the next song due date was and The Seamus Collective's win for "Morning on Bourbon" in the 15 years ago tab. I was part of that collective, and did not know Wayne as well as Ken and the rest, but he was incomparable in spreading joy through m...

Re: SpinTunes 18 Round 1 Challenge 'Color Me Impressed'

To Whom it concerns, regarding "Ultimate Gray": I had no idea what color to write about, so for alternative inspiration I went and looked up the Pantone color-of-the-year for 2021. There are two of them, but the first one listed was “Ultimate Gray,” and I thought, “I can work with that.” T...

Holy Crap! That was a good batch of songs. I have no idea how I'll be judging them. Lots of listening going to have to happen.

BTW - If you submitted a song to SpinTunes 16, YOU ARE A JUDGE! Please rank and send in your email.
Are finalists also judges?

Re: Nur Ein X - Round Two

Out.

Wrong week of my life to do this, and next week probably would have been, too.

Apologies to anyone eliminated last week who might have had a spot if I had anticipated this, but I guess that's the game.

Have a good fight, all - I'll try to write reviews.

Seems to me like if something got old after two times, it would be highly qualified for the idea of getting old fast, I mean, that's REALLY fast!

Re: Nur Ein X - Round One

Ok, I'm in.

My “Tambourine” is a broken beer bottle in a capri sun cardboard box
My “Washboard”/“Shaker” is an empty Lay’s chips bag I rustled between my hands like starting a fire
My “Go-Go bells” are tuned beer bottles (Guinness Blonde ale)
