**Cover Contest Assignments!!**

ShadowMom	Date: May 2, 2007 @ 7:29 AM Fraser covers Sween and Distilled1 covers Fraser (the artist formerly known as Ataxia). Now get busy!
DeadraveN	Date: May 2, 2007 @ 11:38 AM EE, gads.. ... if I give you all an extra week, due to the confusion, can you get done? I know there are several that say they are just days away from finishing.... and on that note, do any of the artists who have finished their tracks think it's uinfair if I extend the deadline a week? this is a democracy.. sort of...
Alwex	Date: May 2, 2007 @ 11:45 AM Would be perfect for us if we had this week on us to finish it, cause ive been really busy with my final exams these last weeks But im practically done with that now, so now i can focus on doing a nice cover for you all
moam	Date: May 2, 2007 @ 12:02 PM Its alright with me as long as everyone who hasn't done it yet and are asking for an extension actually finish it and get it up. I don't want to wait an extra week for nothing. And I know how busy it is for all you college students out there (me being one of them) but a month and a half is PLENTY of time. In a nutshell, I'm okay with it, but I'm kind of annoyed at the same time, just my
kingo	Date: May 2, 2007 @ 1:01 PM I agree with Moam. There is very much busy-busy all around. We managed to get our geographically-challenged asses all in one place despite the challenges of moving, jobs, three babies of members of the band (plus the babies who are in the band,) new equipment, busted old equipment, oversized penises, undersized clothes, amorphous decision points, mp3s that WEREN'T AVAILABLE FOR DOWNLOAD ONLY FOR STREAMING so we had to stream it into an audio program to record it just to be able to repeat it so we could learn it even though I already had it on my computer at home but that's not helping anything when we're all five hours away from my home (see point f.3 about "geographically challenged,"), exploding colons, a really weird dude named Mel who kept hanging around out front handing us leaflets, various car accidents, insurance that won't pay up, negative bank balances, trips to Europe (or some shit, I don't even know where Madhog goes most of the time,) throat problems, bad directions, angry spouses, and indigestion, so it seems to me that anyone unable to finish their track is JUST A POOPOO HEAD. And if we're going to offer an extension, what do the rest of us get in return? HMMM? WHAT'S IN IT FOR ME???? Next year maybe we should implement a policy of having the people who sign up all cover songs by artists who are in the contest AND completed their entry on time in the previous year. That way people who are actually doing this because they're so goddamned vain that they just have to hear their own music played by some poor schlub aren't denied the oppurtunity just because somebody couldn't get their goddamned homework done.

Israfel	Date: May 2, 2007 @ 2:06 PM I think he's just making up that "oversized penis" part...
Tattoomom	Date: May 2, 2007 @ 9:01 PM I guess Bill and I are with MOAM too...as scary of a thought as THAT is... We are also busy with life and we managed to get ours done ... so I say a week and no more...
jonspratt	Date: May 2, 2007 @ 10:26 PM I'm in university and I got mine done (almost) on time. Just like at school I can only really work on a tight deadline!! But yeah, I say extend it. If I had known we had another week I probably wouldn't have done mine yet either.....
victorsskull	Date: May 2, 2007 @ 11:27 PM ok Im going to admit I bombed on this one and I am sorry
JanTosh	Date: May 2, 2007 @ 11:41 PM what a fun idea! now I just have to listen to them all
GeneHilbert	Date: May 3, 2007 @ 12:20 AM I too must apologize for my inability to have this done on time. It does appear things are becoming a little more stable and my schedule a little less hectic so hopefully I have it done soon.
Alstroph	Date: May 3, 2007 @ 9:22 AM A week would be perfect. Is that going to happen?
DeadraveN	Date: May 3, 2007 @ 12:06 PM okay, a week it is.. and that's all. If it's not done by Tuesday the 8th, it won't be eligible to win. I'll even allow all day tuesday for the covers to go up, then I'll post a list on wednesday. now hurry up!!
hate9wicket	Date: May 3, 2007 @ 12:53 PM Yay! Ok Mr. D Raven, now that you're done here, I'd like you to go settle a custody battle between two women and a baby, you might want to find your flintstone. Ehhh, I might tweak mine a bit since I've got a couple days,
Distilled1	Date: May 3, 2007 @ 2:54 PM well if mine isnt up by the 8th im still puting it up I didn't do it to win anyway... and I aint no quiter!!!! but im out of town till Tuesday in 2 hours... do have the giutar w/ and the laptop so I can tweak some ideas to add
DeadraveN	Date: May 3, 2007 @ 3:20 PM respect to Distilled1
Mojosnake	Date: May 4, 2007 @ 2:13 AM and to think i rush a day before to get something crappy together steve was the only thing that saved it well i didnt want to win either i just wanted to play with the cool kids too
shutyatrap	Date: May 4, 2007 @ 6:26 PM I just wanted to belt out a song and I'm pretty glad I did. Mojo's work wasn't crap in my opinion! Excellent piece to allow me to try to create something original. Not always easy to do when its a cover contest!
MickeyBreezy	Date: May 4, 2007 @ 8:39 PM first of all, i would like to apologize for not making the original deadline. i wont bore you with excuses for my poor punctuality, but rather just say thank you for the extension, i really appreciated it, as im sure everyone who was late does. and now for what you've been waiting for... i covered "the low down" by bluenevus and bass over forty the original- http://bluenevus.dmusic.com/music/comments/318305 my cover- http://mickeybreezy.dmusic.com/music/comments/352491 i would like to remind all of you that i am a rapper, not a singer, so during the portions where i "sing" if you could manage to not laugh, that would be fantastic
PrincessTast...	Date: May 5, 2007 @ 9:15 AM Don't feel bad, I'm a much worse singer. Like a dying llama. Not to be confused with the Dalai Llama, who CAN sing. But that's not me. Good job by the way!
ShadowMom	Date: May 7, 2007 @ 10:01 PM Tuesday is the last day.... no more whining! The list goes up Wednesday (stop whining, ) and the voting will begin. And how long does the voting last, you might ask? I certainly would like to know.
DeadraveN	Date: May 7, 2007 @ 10:03 PM until I say "stop"
ShadowMom	Date: May 7, 2007 @ 10:13 PM Or until I get tired of counting...
Tattoomom	Date: May 7, 2007 @ 10:44 PM No...definately we need a time frame....otherwise DeadraveN will just have S-Mom counting till the crows come home...
ShadowMom	Date: May 7, 2007 @ 10:49 PM You think so? You don't know me.... One day, I'll just go, "Okay-- that's it! No more! Shredder time!"
Israfel	Date: May 7, 2007 @ 10:50 PM Whoever gets the most votes in the next 5 minutes wins! Quick...everyone send Shadowmom a note NOW!

moam	Date: May 8, 2007 @ 1:14 PM ...And for those of you who "needed more time" but STILL haven't submitted a fucking track, I will bitch slap you for all eternity
moam	Date: May 8, 2007 @ 1:15 PM I'm sure Kingo would love to join me in that task

DeadraveN	Date: May 8, 2007 @ 5:09 PM And moam's bitchslaps hurt! 10 hours left to post!!! (ish... if you can sneak them up before I log on tomorrow morning, I might let it slide)
moam	Date: May 8, 2007 @ 5:15 PM So Raven, how many people have yet to post a contest entry?
DeadraveN	Date: May 8, 2007 @ 5:19 PM don't ask me to do math. but there's plenty... For artists who participated, but did not get covered, I will beg, plead, bribe, and threaten to try to get someone to cover a track of yours... not for the contest, but just for fun.
moam	Date: May 8, 2007 @ 5:57 PM If I can see a list of artists who didn't get covered...who knows...I might have a lot of free time this summer! For those of you who got all excited but didn't do shit...or if you asked for an extension but just wasted all of our time...fuck you...seriously.
HenriRoger	Date: May 8, 2007 @ 6:12 PM Wow , I'm lucky I did it on time .
Tattoomom	Date: May 8, 2007 @ 6:42 PM Don't hold back now MOAM...just tell us how you really feel!
moam	Date: May 8, 2007 @ 6:44 PM I would tell you how I REALLY feel, but that would involve showers again, so I'll just leave that portion buried
Jazzmary2U	Date: May 8, 2007 @ 7:56 PM WHEW... made it! Hope the links work! jazzmary cover of funk junk victorskull originalThanks, victorskull for the good stuff to work with!
Jazzmary2U	Date: May 9, 2007 @ 1:20 PM Next time, can we do this during late July - early August, maybe? There is an awful lot going on here in the USA in May/June, june for us gigging musicians.. parties, graduations, gala fundraisers, weddings, etc.. a lot on the plate!! Was fun to do, tho..

The way I see it though, if you don't have the time to participate, don't participate.
PrincessTast...	Date: May 9, 2007 @ 3:04 PM At least I got some vocs up! You wouldn't bitchslap a face like this would you!?!?
moam	Date: May 9, 2007 @ 5:43 PM slap slap So it takes more than a month to make some vox?
ShadowMom	Date: May 9, 2007 @ 9:32 PM Oh come on now! Sometimes things beyond our control happen. This is for fun. Let's keep it that way. And no slap unless I do it And the problem, in my opinion, with July and August is vacations-- a lot of people leave for weeks. That could end up being the worst time to do it. Just a thought. Or two.

Or two. Oh I know where you're coming from But people had a month and a half basically to plan around everything It's not that hard to get a track done in even a week I just find it annoying But I'll leave it alone. Though if I see any excuses in why people couldn't get their track done in a month and a half, I will comment again Just cause its a MOAM thing to do
ShadowMom	Date: May 10, 2007 @ 12:06 AM
Israfel	Date: May 10, 2007 @ 12:08 AM Ain't nothin' but a MOAM thang!
moam	Date: May 10, 2007 @ 1:17 AM damn right
Alstroph	Date: May 10, 2007 @ 9:27 AM Even though Flying Apparatus missed both dates we WILL still be posting a cover.
PrincessTast...	Date: May 10, 2007 @ 9:36 AM Moam, I am never speaking to you again.
