***RE: The What Do You Play? Thread***
Just making this thread to see how many people would be interested in having a Screaming Bloody Murder guitar cover contest on Youtube. If it does go ahead, I would say we'd have the least bother using the track SBM, cos UMG wouldn't pull them down.
I've never organized anything like this before, is there anything I'd have to take into consideration if it gets a positive response and does go ahead?
Leave your name in here or in my inbox if you want in
Any suggestions would be most welcome, too
*EDIT*
Ok, so these are the people who have expressed an interest so far. Post back here to confirm and I'll set up some official rules and get it going.
Tomas
Samuel
Andrew
Jeremy
Luis
Fergal
SilverDolphin
Ivan
Mitchell
Two more people and we'd have ten if everyone confirms - come on people!

Re: SBM Guitar cover contest
I'd go with Skumfuk, since I don't know how to play any other

Re: SBM Guitar cover contest
Haha, I think SBM would be better suited, because most people would be able to rattle off Skumfuk with no mistakes. SBM is more varied and a small bit more difficult technicallygejmik wrote:I'd go with Skumfuk, since I don't know how to play any other
You should enter anyway!lisaNL wrote:This contest would be pretty cool, I wouldn't enter though zero chance I would win xD Anyway, will we be the judges or something?
And I don't know what to do about judges :/ Maybe some admins? Maybe we could get Tom to look at some of them?
Anybody have any ideas for how to judge it!?

Re: SBM Guitar cover contest
yeah, too bad I couldn't take a part then, that riff is just too difficult to me, I play for just 3 months. Holy Images of Lies sounds pretty easy though.fergal41 wrote:Haha, I think SBM would be better suited, because most people would be able to rattle off Skumfuk with no mistakes.

Re: SBM Guitar cover contest
Just pick some trustable people who know lots about guitars and who know the best how to play the songs.fergal41 wrote:gejmik wrote: Anybody have any ideas for how to judge it!?
You should also do a piano contest for Crash

Re: SBM Guitar cover contest
You could also let everyone decide for themselves what song they'll cover, as long it's a song that on SBM

Re: SBM Guitar cover contest
Indeed, it seems like a fairer way to do things and Gejmik could enter that waylisaNL wrote:You could also let everyone decide for themselves what song they'll cover, as long it's a song that on SBM
It would have to be formatted a certain way, so I'll give it some thought tonight. People, leave your suggestions here in the mean time!
Record your covers whenever you like, I'll give a weeks notice once we get enough names

Re: SBM Guitar cover contest
Sure I'll enter. I'll enter one of my covers. Would it be okay if it's blocked from everywhere but canada? or will I have to submit a different one

you can also say "every n00b could enter that way", I'm okay with that so far cause it's truefergal41 wrote:...and Gejmik could enter that way ...lisaNL wrote:You could also let everyone decide for themselves what song they'll cover, as long it's a song that on SBM

Re: SBM Guitar cover contest
I was learning the title track a few weeks ago now, still working on the solo. I'm a shit technical player though, we'll see how it pans out.

*Light bulb*
Oh yeah, we won't have a judging panel - I'll just set up a poll
*Literally took me eight hours to think of that*

Re: SBM Guitar cover contest
I'm sure I'm not, really. I learned a start of Sweet Child O' Mine, Motivation, Fat Lip and Skumfuk, a lill' part of SBM (chorus and intro) and a few riffs. But except that, I can't play anything. It's been 3 months I hope I'll get better in.. Let's say - a year.
And no, it's totally cool I didn't take it in a bad way .
