GOOD RIDDANCE

#

I vote either redundant or good riddance

tender canopy Jun 10, 2024, 12:20 PM

#

I’ve always wondered how we’d do good riddance if it won. Obviously have people send guitar and vocals but the strings would be a whole thing. Probably would ask people to submit string instruments if anyone could and then if they didn’t come in it would be midi by the mixer. Fun to think about

#

I imagine the number of people that play string instruments and can properly record them is a lot smaller than people that play the guitar and bass and stuff

lunar violet if you ever do jackass or smth will there be a saxophone

There would indeed, at least I'd ask for people to submit sax parts. Same case as what I said above about strings. Do you have the means to record sax at a high enough quality? No guarantee we do that song any time soon since it's up to the will of the people but something to keep in mind

lunar violet Jun 10, 2024, 10:25 PM

#

Now that i think about it the quality would be a problem although I’m sure I could find a way with the help of my other saxophone players that I know irl

If we get last ride in i can try recording my xylophone 😄😄😄 but i dont have a vibraphone unfortunately

Alright here we are finally

#

Time to see if we've learned anything about playing songs that are swung, we're doing Hitchin' a Ride

#

As usually please wait until there is a reddit post with instructions and a backing track before you record ANYTHING

Last ride in was robbed 😞

tender canopy Jun 11, 2024, 8:58 PM

Last ride in was second to last

#

Redundant barely lost this one, it was two points behind

Redundant was also tied for the most first place votes with...

We should definitely get the cover project orchestra going 🤣

#

Can I add a trombone part?

tender canopy Jun 11, 2024, 9:13 PM

#

I would love love love to get a strings player on this one. Not sure if horns makes a lot of sense but I could be convinced, send me ideas if you have any

#

Flat out replacing the violin with trombone would be crazy. Imagine the lead-in to the solo being a trombone going wubwubwubWUBWUBWUB

#

Sliding up with vibrato

#

I kinda wanna hear it

marble basin Jun 11, 2024, 9:15 PM

#

I'll have to get my bone from the hot ass attic and see what I can do. Not too much to where its convoluted but complimenting the rest of the composition

marble basin Jun 11, 2024, 9:16 PM

#

I was actually thinking the same thing

#

Haven't played trombone in 5 years, so this will be interesting

Billie Joe always dragging the song out to like 10 minutes live with the 1 2 1 2 3 4 stuff makes me think I’m tired of the song, then I go back and listen to it, I forget how much it rocks

marble basin Jun 11, 2024, 9:19 PM

#

Then he drags it out more by just letting the riff keep going while running around on stage yelling "HEEEEEEYOOOOOO!!!"
