i am going to regret this (and may need help) but can i claim that song til further notice?
Sure, but as noted, no limitations -- if people want to do their own take on that, feel free. I figure people should post what you want to do when you've figured out the song and I'll keep a running list. And remember, do originals too if you want! No reason not to!
― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 13 October 2011 22:01 (twelve years ago) link
Ok, tbh I'm already regretting posting that, so we'll see if I can manage to get anything at all done by Nov. 15

Huh. Seems weird. Oh well, I did say no limitations so hey.

well if it's too weird/crepey, i will do something else and let the 9 whiney's whining be merely a figment of my imagination.

Ah, was thinking it was time for a new 'no restrictions' compilation.
This would be ILX vol 6 wouldn't it? Or have we sacked the 'count'...
Anyroad, I have to be in this. I'm in.

Really enjoying this still, especially as I get closer to being on vacation! Tom D., your tracks are really great I must say, right up my alley. I would listen to those in any context. Do you record other stuff? I mean everything on this is good/fun/rocking and many combinations of all of those things, but those tracks and the Elf With Wound song I could listen to on repeat without any complaints.
― grandavis, Thursday, 19 December 2013 22:55 (ten years ago) link
