So then we can count on your for a spoken word piece? Perhaps some R.E.M. or Tom Waits?

If I can figure out which of these leftovers I've used for the previous contest and which ones are still unheard, I think I'll put my hat in as well.

I'm going to be gone for about 10 day starting tomorrow. When I get back we'll start to formalize this thing. In the meantime recruit people!

I'm looking forward to this. Tom Waits' lower register cookie monster voice is my favourite Tom Waits voice.

It would be much more of a challenge if we have Stip choose our songs or at least the genre for us each round. One round could be Beatles the next could be Top 40 songs from the 80's. Stuff like that. Most of the time people choose such obscure songs they might as well be originals.

I'd be in. It'd probably be a crappy mic into garageband setup, but I can think of a few songs that could be fun.

I can't carry a tune to save my life. This is gonna be fun. Stip, use karaoke tracks and give us spoken word readings.
