Oh, BTW, can you tell by looking at my Avatar that its a rubber punching dummy and not a human? He plays the guitar slightly better than I do..

Lol. I thought it was a burn victim.

LOL!

Honestly, I picked it up on craigslist for cheap for my daughter to kick the crap out of. It sits in the laundry room and it scares the shit out of my wife every time she goes in to do the laundry. I hear a scream every week or so.

The night I first got it, I called my daughter and told her to bring a hat, sunglasses, and a t-shirt outside, so we dressed him up and brought him into the living room. I called my wife and said "Honey, come here and meet my friend Bob.". We had his bottom half behind a chair to help make it more real. She came around the corner and stared at him for about 4 seconds before she started laughing.

She said, At first I was embarrassed about how messy the house was, but then I saw bob didn’t have any arms and I thought, why am I embarrassed, he is the one without arms.. Then she realized he wasn’t real.

you can't tell from the photo, but I photoshopped a burning cigerette in his mouth.

Now he just sits in the laundry room with sheet over his head so as not scare my wife. Still with the baseball hat on, so he looks one of the castaways from the episode where they all dressed as ghosts on Gilligan's Island.

I know, it’s an incurable affliction.

IaNaLB... A lot of those terms are pretty basic legalese that anyone who accepts user-written music is going to have to cover their bases. They need to specify that, yes, you are granting them license to use your song for the contest and all related promotion.

This one goes pretty far though, what with using terms like "perpetual" "irrevocable" "fully-sublicensable" and "transferable". At least they specify "non-exclusive", so you can go sell your song to other jerks too.

I ended up deciding to write something for other contest on that site. Syrian Dance track.
Doesn't seem to be any restrictions (at least for entering), and the winner gets some software, and the top three end up on benefit album with some Euro artists.

Sorry for my newbie question, but is there a way to see all the contestants?

Contestants or Contests? Contests yes, just go to the main page and filter on Music (unless you want to see photography, etc.)

Contestants, I have no idea. Probably not until the voting begins.
