    Hello fellow kids

     


     

    I have over 100 songs in progess in the ‘vault’ but this list is to mark which songs are my priorities.

     

    Currently I am charting vocals & keys with SomeOldGuys. You can read more about it here.

     

    Songs in progress:

     

    The Go-Go’s “Head Over Heels”

    Elvis Costello “Watching the Detectives”

    The Sheepdogs -= Discography =-

    The Chats “Temperature” “Pub Feed” “Bus Money”

    Badfinger “Come and Get It”

    Flight of the Conchords “Leggy Blonde”

     


     

    I should probably fix a few things.

     

    Fixes incoming:

     

    Thin Lizzy “Jailbreak” (Playstation stems issue)

    DVDA “Freedom Isn’t Free” (guitar chart)

    Great to see you are working on customs as well.

    A lot of unknown songs for me but it’ll be interesting to play them regardless. I’m also really curious how some parts of Popular will translate to Rock Band. Looking forward to it <img decoding=” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_smile.gif” />

     

    Good luck with your list.

    Looking forward to seeing Beat on the Brat, Transdermal Celebration, and Mongoloid!

     

    Are you planning on doing any more Ween? I’ve never listened to 12GCG (gotta get on that), but I’d love to work with you on anything from, say, Pure Guava or The Mollusk.

    I would love to do more Ween! Anything in particular ? Voodoo Lady really needs to be done. I will give PG and Mollusk another listen and see if anything grabs me. I’m really loving White Pepper’s “Exactly Where I’m At” these days.

    There are surprisingly a lot of Ween fans on this board. I have yet to meet one in real life.

    Yo!

    I see you’re interested in tinfoil! I’ll send you what TheWay123 and I have done so far if you want. Oh, and by the way, I’m the one who charted Another Sunday by I Mother Earth. Guitar only, not bass though.

    Nice list! “Making Plans for Nigel” would make an awesome addition to C3.

    Added: Devo, Ween, Misfits, Eagles of Death Metal.

    I’m glad I waited until I had a few songs ready, I think that makes more sense just because posting/publishing this stuff correctly takes quite some time as well. Other than that things are going great, I’m figuring out more and more stuff and each new song I start gets done that much more efficiently. Also I am grabbing some of the official harmonix files from my xbox, ripping into those in Reaper to see how the pro’s do it. Is that normal? It’s highly illuminating.

    I need to focus more on dryvox lipsynchs and venues, I’m just doing the bare basics on those fronts.

    “Poets” (Tragically Hip) “Transdermal Celebration” (Ween) and “Piss up a Rope” (Ween) are currently in testing. I’ve tempo mapped everything in the first section above and most have vocals & harmonies.

    I’m collaborating on Ween’s “Buckingham Green” “Mutilated Lips” and “The Blarney Stone” with Samyaza, “Tinfoil” with Froogmart & theway123, some Tragically Hip with Crazy Canuck.

    I would love to do more collaborating with people in this fine community, so far this has been really fun learning song authoring.

    Finally, I am working on one more update before the end of 2016.

    Thanks for the comments friends, I really appreciate them.

    Good call on checking how a proper song is done. <img decoding=” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_smile.gif”>

    Thanks Farottone.

    Negguy – I’ll PM you when they are ready so you won’t miss them. I just added “Hundredth Meridian” – Crazy Canuck did the drums and I found a Frets on Fire chart of guitar and bass, merged them. Easy peasy.

    I am trying hard to get one or two or three of them out for Christmas <img decoding=” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_smile.gif” /> Should be no problem at the rate I’m going.

    Removed: Devo – Jocko Homo
    Removed: Devo – Satisfaction

    Well this was a terrible idea, the songs alternates between three time signatures and while I feel it’s by no means impossible to tempo map, I need some more practice. I’ll revisit these in a few months when I’m looking for new ideas.

    Removed:

    EODM – I Love you all the time
    Ramones – Sheena is a Punk Rocker

    Another author has notified me that they are working on these, so I will collaborate with them on their projects instead.

    I have added four songs by Tenacious D, however I will keep them somewhat secret until they are ready. Three from the first album and one from their last. I am actually getting a lot of work done on my customs, so expect to see some soon.

    I’ve released 3 out of 4 of the Tenacious D songs I’m working on. The last one is quite challenging to author and will take another few weeks of testing.

    Three Ween songs are next up. Buckingham Green, Mutilated Lips, Transdermal Celebration.

    Once those are out, I promise to go back and fix all the reported issues with everything I’ve released to date, most of which are already done but untested. Sorry the fixes take so long, I’m trying to be as careful as possible and not introduce new issues as I go.

    At that point I will return to working on Tragically Hip and a few other surprises. I will admit that around Dec 10th I stopped work on the Hip to focus on “easier” material, particularly charting the guitar was giving me headaches. Now that I have 14 songs out I feel a bit more confident and have a plan in mind to get them playable. Most of them are 3/4 done but its that last 1/4 that is a real bitch.

    You can send me the RPP file for the last one if you want me to take a look, I’d be happy to help. <img decoding=” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_smile.gif” />
