Well, if no one else throws their name in the hat, I'll take at least one guitar track... though it's a riff I've never learned. I definitely can't do the vocals though.... I'm not good at the harsh stuff. In fact, I wish Ginger would explain the trick to the screaming that he does so much of lately.

I should be good for a drum track too, if need be.


I'll give the vocals a crack but I can't promise anything. I'll let you know after a bit of practice...

I'm sure you've already got enough drummers, just skim reading, but I'm pretty tasty on the skins. Count me in.. I've got an electric kit - that actually sounds fairly decent - so that makes recording drums a bit easier.

I'll offer up my production skills rather than my lack of guitar skills

I can pull it all together on Logic and have enough bandwidth to upload songs etc to a dedicated server.

I'd love to do artwork for this! like a case inlay and cd label people could download and print off if this is available as mp3s to download and burn to cd. Either way I'd really like to handle the art design side of this, I'm a graphic design student and know my way around photoshop and illustrator, you can see my wildhearts 2007 tour poster on their myspace.

Looks like this

I'm totally in.

I'm a fucking ace singer and can play canny rhythm guitar too.

If there is a tribute album, do my Sick of Drugs or I Wanna Go Where The People Go remixes stand a chance of making it? (I'm guessing the cheese factor that they have the answer's no! lol)

Okay, excellent. It seems like this thing's really starting to pick up speed.

For the producer who stepped up. VERY good. Any internet collaborations that get done are going to take a shitload of work and organization. I can do a lot of stuff, but I know I'm pretty limited... and it's good to know there's someone else to pick up the slack.

For the drummer who stepped up. Also very good. We've had no drummers come forward yet, besides me and my samples. If you don't have a functional band, all I can suggest to you (and all of the other lone instrumentalists) is to try to talk to some other players about collaborating. A couple of questions, though: are you personally able to record your drums? And if so, will you be able to play along to a click-track to keep a consistent tempo? I'm thinking that you would have to be able to get an mp3 of a click track with maybe a rough guitar track on top and play along... would this be possible for you? Am I thinking about it the wrong way? I've recorded a lot of things, but never a live drummer.

For the fully-functionals... the people who either on their own or with their bands, will be able to produce full recordings completely on their own: EXCELLENT. Get recording, friends... and don't be afraid to go ahead and record a whole pile of songs. Nothing wrong with having something to pick and choose from.

For the artist. Very sweet. Very pro-looking poster. As far as I'm concerned you've clearly got what is required. Not really much else I can say on that.


All you bassists, singers, guitarists and drummers... get to chatting amongst each other about working on songs together. We've already got talk of a collab band for "Shut Your Fucking Mouth". How many players do we have lined up for that particular song? Like I said, I can take a guitar track, but if someone else wants it they can have it...

I've never seen any, though I'm sure there were people recording it - would love to see a copy if anyone has it! There is an audio boot of the night that has the playback listed on it though (search for "37 x" on http://www.snag.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/).

Slick bastards stole my idea several years before I ever even had the chance to have it.

Hell I'm in

Rhythm Guitarist (some Lead experience) / Possible Bassist / Backing Vocalist / Sax Player (You never know... )

Don't have a band, but am able to record :)

Alternativly, are there enough of us in the London area to get together and give it a old fashioned try? (You know, with the instruments all in the same room...)
