@kineticturtle, e-mailed! Thanks Matt!

@BP, I wanted to play my bootleg of "Hibernate", but I didn't want to steal any thunder from the SECRET MIDNIGHT RELEASE OF THE SUPER SECRET "HIBERN8 4EVR" SINGLE THAT IS HAPPENING TONIGHT!!! Oh wait, that's not really happening, and thinking about how it is not really happening makes me sad. I work out?

@Datafix, I am not sure but I think you can stream WMFO from your phone? If you go to http://www.wmfo.org/ there might be a streaming option or something, I don't really know because I only use walkie talkies.

I've known about that list for a while, you guys probably haven't heard of it yet.

I don't want to crowd up this thread with a playlist, but I played "Earth That Was", "The Exploding Threat", and "Failed Pedestrian Dreams" on my radio show this week. Not that many people are listening from 5:00 to 6:00 AM here in Boston, but I've been digging it!

Nice!

Is Lizzie's guitar a Hello Kitty strat minus the pickguard? If so, that's awesome.

Hadn't seen anyone post this yet, but it's awesome and you should see it.

Thankfully the organizers were generous enough to give us 29 days this year for the challenge.

I've done this the past 3 years, and I usually come up with a few things I like. One cool part of RPM is the listening party in March. Every album submitted is put out on a few tables for people to peruse, then they play a video that makes you think it was important, and then everyone goes to a different venue (at least in Portsmouth, NH) for genre-specific listening parties where they play one song from every album.

I like these timed challenges too, and while I don't always complete them I always consider it a success because even if I only made a few new things... hey, I made a few new things!

FINALLY, a tromboner!

Looking forward to this!

Cars stink, and boats are too mainstream. I take the subway because it's still underground.

Tempo ranges from 30 to 1920 BPM.

This has got to be a typo, right?
