I'm quite interested in one of these, but I'm wondering how it compares to the B3, anyone done a comparison?

dissappointed I can't make this (again)

I'm still hoping to get an entry in this month, altho' other things seem to be conspiring against me been working on the same basic idea for a while but can't quite get it to the stage I'm happy with

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1355149453' post='1894610'] I insist on having the drummer on my right, because I like to hear what the hi-hat is doing. [/quote] same here

more recent examples include The Cherry Poppin' Daddies and Big Bad Voodoo Daddy (all of Bilbo's suggestions must be pretenders because they don't have 'Daddy' in the band name )

[quote name='Lord Sausage' timestamp='1354914316' post='1892081'] So here it is, my entry for this months competition. There is a description of the idea and process on the soundcloud page. It has some structure and some elements of aleatoric composition. No harmony and counterpoint this month, tho there are some vocals. It will be interesting to see what you think! [url="https://soundcloud.com/dreaded-ted/degeneration-of-the-penis"]https://soundcloud.c...on-of-the-penis[/url] [/quote] yep, like that, it's a great start to this months comp. My contribution is progressing, I'll hopefully get chance to significantly move things along with it on Sunday; mine won't be festive either

[quote name='Skol303' timestamp='1354619748' post='1888085'] Still, nothing that some mangled electronica can't squash [/quote] damn right

[quote name='charic' timestamp='1354619866' post='1888091'] Difficult as I can't sing [/quote] didn't stop me last month

after just get back from seeing Gary Numan, I've been inspired to have a rethink. I've decided to scrap the story of the elves spiking Santas drink and go for something darker and more industrial

I'll chip in my 2p, I much prefer the less formal feel of the old style market place. The new one has more of a 'corporate' vibe and seems very rigid.

I'm in, got a few vocal ideas already, I'm thinking xmas cheese with a twist. This, combined with putting up the decorations with the family today, has me almost feeling festive

hahaha, I'd seen this before, good choice Skol

congratulations Skol, it was a bit of a roller-coaster ride, but I'm glad the anticipated result before the poll meltdown was repeated. Enjoy your custom bass (and the design and build process) Looking forward to an equally inspiring picture for next month.

That's a tough break for the front runners, esp Skol. I've duplicated my vote, but I'm happy to go with any fair alternative solution. Has Pual from 13 guitars been consulted?

[quote name='silddx' timestamp='1354056776' post='1881620'] He was whacking everyone and if by raising my concerns about people's voting habits I have caused some sort of issue with the competition, and he doesn't get the prize he deserves (assuming he would have won), I will never forgive myself [/quote] I think Skol was far enough ahead to be deemed to have won if the poll doesn't get reinstated in time. I also think it would be a good thing for the competition, and subsequent months, to continue on schedule despite any technical setbacks we encounter edited because I've had a bottle of wine and aren't functioning as well as I would normally be expected to...

with respect to the poll, I'm fairly sure I had 40 out of 78 votes not

[quote name='silddx' timestamp='1354053228' post='1881544'] steve, I am praying that's not the case. I sort of wish I'd not said anything now [/quote] I'm sure it's not the case mate, and for what it's worth, I agree with everything you said - it needed saying, altho' I don't know how we'd address the situation. It's a symptom of the age I guess

surely the dissappearance of the poll can't be related to silddx' post?

[quote name='nugget' timestamp='1353858487' post='1879032'] Got some more done so thought I'd better put some more pix up. There is still a lot of sanding to do so ignore the rough edges etc [/quote] really like this, the inlays on the board look fantastic

[quote name='Elvis Valentine' timestamp='1354039593' post='1881305'] Hey folks, can someone do me a favour and check if the link to my tune goes to the vocal mix or not. The address is right but when i click on it it takes me to the instrumental which is really annoying as its the vocal mix that is the entry. Thanks in advance my lovelies. I've still not cast my vote. Its toooo hard. [/quote] it doesn't appear to m8

[quote name='Skol303' timestamp='1354036471' post='1881256'] Aww, Steve! It's the beard, isn't it? My missus has been wanting me to get rid of it for ages... ok, I'll just grab my Marigolds and be right over... [/quote] nope, love beards, just got a lot of washing up

[quote name='Skol303' timestamp='1354035000' post='1881224'] If I knew where you lived, I'd come round and give you a sloppy kiss! Or do the washing up. Your choice [/quote] erm... washing up lease, I'll pm my address
