    As I logged on one Monday night as drunk as drunk could be,
    I saw a ban in my inbox, where my freedom of speech should be
    Well, I called pm'd dev and I said to him: "Will you kindly tell to me
    Who made that ban in my inbox where my freedom of speech should be?

    "Ah, re-reg, re-reg, you silly old fool, still you can not see
    there is no freedom of speech on boards, it's a privately owned website and
    the admins are entitled to enforce what ever rules they like to protect themselves."


    it's a work in progress.

    I'd buy this especially if it's crap just so it'd get more airtime.

    Yeah but if two of us combine we can use peer pressure to make him hand the song over!

    Well, I kinda thought the song had to be about boards, or representative of it at least.

    Anyway, you guys aren't implying I'm a one hit wonder, are you?

    'Cos that'd be kinda cool.

    See I dunno. I guess once we get the submission for the lyrics we can decide then.

    Lets write the most sexually explicit lyrics ever for a pop song, then release it as a childrens charity single. We'll be number 1 and splashed all over the Daily Mail within a week :D

    *shakes head in sadness*

    What is it about the letters DJ? :pac:


    Boney, I think there's a lot of interest already, from all different kind of angles ... the next step might be to think about how it could be progressed ... even maybe have a look back over the thread, try and pull together some of the best ideas / thoughts / options which need to be thought about and decided??

    Just a thought ... :)

    Yup.

    You basically need an organisey guy, a musicy writey guy, and a soundy enginerry guy, before you can go ahead.

    lol

    could put out like a viral marketing campaign for a few months before hand, get people who dont have a clue about boards wondering, and serve as a call to arms for those that do, but dont know about the project; Could go for the Gabbo factor

    *warning, image attached was done in paint in 3 minutes, but you get the idea.

    I'm in for this. I'm a guitarist/Sax player/Songwriter. People could throw together ideas of a general rhythm/lyrics up on youtube by a certain date and we could have a vote off maybe?

    -Funk

    EDIT: Should probably keep the basic rhythm simple for people to learn off and then when everything starts to come together start posting up lessons on how to play it perfectly for people to learn it.

    I'm throwing around some ideas at the moment. Have yet to write anything but the ideas are there. Might not be suitable for a "Feed the World" type effort though.

    It would help if we knew what kind of music you were into. Maybe write a little paragraph describing your tastes? It doesn't have to be that long; a sentence mabye or, better yet, a single word.

    I would like that, but it would be the admin's decision. Perhaps I should put a request on the Forums .. er .. forum.

    Edit:

    Song construction wise there's no point doing lyrics til we have the structure settled a bit.

    I would suggest a nice simple chorus which would allow something synth-ey and vaguley feed- the -world ish to be played over it.

    Ooh ooh ooh.. I could be the organisey type!

    Alternatively, by that stage I should be a fairly competent drummer...


    In any case, this all sounds fantastic and I want in!
