    Hmm, we should make an online collaboration project between all of us and become a supergroup!

    I still want to make a thread that's basically a cover "contest", where every week or so a new song is posted and everyone does their own cover, alone or as a group, in whatever style.

    Holy shit that's a great idea.

    I might make it now and just start with a song that I've already covered with my delicate homo-folk.

    Is Blackstreet's "No Diggity" a good place to start? I think it might be a bit out there.

    It's like an English class but for Irish, if that makes sense. We have to do poetry and essays and stories and shit like that.

    What language are the writings in? Out of curiosity? I mean, is it just stuff by Irish authors in general or does it all have to be in gaelic or whatever?

    Everything's in Irish. Everything.

    On the lower level paper some of the questions are asked in English, but with us it's all Irish.

    i think there is that kind of competitiveness in every hobby or occupation. the machismo element is more played up with electric guitar than, say, violin, i would imagine, but it's still there.
    Actually, I'd probably say it's at least the same degree of machismo, if not more. Macho dicks are gonna be macho dicks about what they do, whatever it is they do. And on top of that, believe it or not, some people who do classical music are incredibly conceited (not all of us, but they do exist).

    What? Musicians conceited? No way!

    I love the derision a lot of people who are mediocre guitarists or drummers give people who play Rock Band.

    EDIT: It's probably the same derision I used to give people who use game builders instead of learning a programming language.

    EDIT2: Except I'm not a mediocre programmer - I'm an awesome programmer.

    I don't care about the quality of the recording, I care about the sound.

    If I use GarageBand everything comes out sounding synth-y because my instrumentation is limited (I play keyboard and have no guitar or drum set).

    If I use Pro Tools I have a lot more control over the sound. I can attach patches to beats and overall it comes out sounding a lot less synthy.

    ahhh, that's a good point. i know the pain of synthy sound.

    not that being synthy is that much of a bad thing, but it certainly gives a feel to my recordings that I might not otherwise want

    edit: and it sounds like the 80s

    You should've just let me be the impartial judge, and person choosing all the songs to be covered. It would have been great.

    We could have changed the name to "The 80s Cover Contest."

    garageband?

    i honestly don't know what to tell you. Garageband is basically a dumbed down cubase that's easy to use and not unbelievably powerful. if you want something more full fledged, go with either cubase or pro tools.
