... who's in? As you may know, I host a couple of live open mics around town, and they're a great way for people to get their feet wet playing live and sharing their music. I'd love to create a virtual open mic. It would work like this: 1. You record a song - either video or audio-only, but video is more fun  2. Upload it to an online repository like YouTube or Soundclick. 3. On Sunday, a special thread is created, and you post a link in that thread to your recording, along w/ some info such as lyrics, what that tune means to you, what gear you used, etc... So, who's interested in the concept? |

I've been recording and posting those here on the forums for some time now  One question: original content only or covers of already created tunes are fine as well? |

original and covers, as long as proper ownership of the song is specified in the post.

The pressure is on now. Lets see I have to go to the Barber, have my wife do my make up, and find some one to play and sing for me and then I am ready.
Sounds like a lot of fun. Great idea.
RK can wear his hansom-man mask with a smile, I can hardly wait.

Could be a lot of fun, folks, and the best way to get better is to play and share your music, live and via recording! |

I think it's a good idea, but there should be a limit to one song per person per week, so we don't all get flooded with 25 songs from one guy. Just a thought...

BTW, you don't have to sing. It could be an instrumental or a jam |
