The HR Tubercular Choir--an idea and a request

[Track Rat]

You ain't strappin' on nothin around me. My girlfriend tried that shit and it ain't gonna happen.

I can swing 5 octaves, but have a 'hole' in the transition between the 4th and 5th....

I can sometimes 'fake' it though, depends on the song!

[Lt. Bob]

I have a pretty wide range but I'd probably be most useful as a bass or baritone.
Can I use my BBTTE?

 

[HangDawg]

I'm in. I'll do verse, chorus, backups. Whatever. If we are gonna do mass vocals, we should maybe have a guitar solo with a little piece from different people. If there is a place for a lead that is.



BBTTE is mandatory!

 

[Lt. Bob]

we should maybe have a guitar solo with a little piece from different people.

Oh...excellent idea! Each guy do about 4 measures, then hand it off to the next guy.

 

[dafduc]

I'm in.

 

[HangDawg]

Oh...excellent idea! Each guy do about 4 measures, then hand it off to the next guy.

Of course, a keyboard or a sax lead would be cool too.

 

[Gidge]

we all know my vocals suck, but Im in.....look at it this way, my suckiness will make the rest sound that much better by comparison......

I'll give it a shot. great idea, crawdad. sounds like fun.

kt

 

[TripleM]

I'm up for it.

 

[Jagular]

ROFLMAO

Awesome idea...I'm gonna sing like Michael Jackson though

Oh and in case that wasn't clear... I'm in . Sounds like a hoot!!

Oh...and range...havent' measured in awhile...7 inches maybe

Seriously...a barlytenor . I can probably squeak out 4 octaves (don't hold me to that), but I have lost a lot of power on either end. Can fake baritone & tenor. Decent falsetto...so the BG's thing can happen too

 

[Chibi Nappa]

Ha! sure, I'll give this a shot.

 

[dafduc]

the BG's thing can happen too

There's a li - hi - hi - hight,
A certain kind of li - hi - hi - hight...

Thoughts so fasr

Well, the Tubercular Choir has 19 positions filled so far--good deal! I'm still hoping for fifty if possible! I've just started writing something--still a long way to go. I figured, with all those singers, its gotta be sort of a rock anthem (besides freebird, Chad!) When I get lyrics and a melody done, I'll post a simple demo, then we can search for the optimum key.

I like the idea of some solo trading too. I will try to incorporate a logical instrumental section.

To continue the spirit of the thing, I want to use other people besides myself to play bass, drums, keys, guitar, etc. I'l get a decent scratch track and erase my parts as better ones come in.

As for the rest, I'll co-ordinate the vocal tracks and get everything set up in a mixable fashion. Maybe somebody else wants to do the final mix? If I can get this song to happen, I'll be real happy.

 

[SLuiCe]

"...and MY AXE..."

You know...the part in Lord of the...never mind...


I'm in too, Al.

 

[HangDawg]

I would think mixing this will be a real challenge as well. All those different vocals, guitars, and whatnots. All with different levels of quality. Should be interesting. Glad I'm not doin it.

 

[mixmkr]

me too, por favor, senior!!!

 

[jcmm]

Can I just lip sync????



Awwww....shit
I'll find a way to do well................even if I have to sit on a thumbtack.



I'm in

 

[muzeman]

I'd be in for an acoustic/harmonica spot.
