I can't wait to see it!
I just finished my artwork and my playlist... and the mix is ready on my laptop to be transferred to disc. Now I just need to get some discs so I can make the mixes. :) I'm kind of pleased with how everything turned out.
Yay!! I'm so looking forward to everyone's shebangs.
I expect nothing less from you, dear Clark.
Oof. Artwork. Don't expect much. I think I hit a creative high with my last one and even that was fuzzy and black and white.
Jackie, my shebang is all set (sort of) but I am not goodread savvy & I can't figure out how to send you a message so I can get your address so I can send you my cd's. Help!
No problem, and good job!I will message you with the info, Janet.
Why do I still not know the theme? Was the theme "whatever you want" i the end? I've got tomorrow to work on it.
Just about done with mine. Liner notes, track listing to be completed.
Jackie, can you go ahead and e-mail me your address? Thanks!

I saw Gretchen's at Jackie's place the other night. It's really cool. Made me wish I had participated.
No, Sarah, I do liner notes. They're not required. I do liner notes because I'm obsessive like that.
Sally wrote: "The theme was clowns."Clowns?
Uh oh...you watch out, or I'll send you a clown mix all of your own just to prove I can.
Gus, now I remember your notes from last spring... good stuff. Maybe I'll be inspired to do something similar.
My shebangs are ready to mail out... I'm considering including liner notes, myself just because. However, I'm leaning towards no liner notes cuz I'm trying to not be so anal-retentive about stuff and that would seem to fit right into the anal-retentive trait that I'm trying so hard to fight.

Heidi, do you remember in which thread last summer I told all about my mom's sex life?

Punchy yes.

I'm going to start a band called the Ass Clowns, by the way...
Misha, I know you were kidding, but, still...

Misha, there'd better be some Sleater-Kinney, that's all I'm sayin'.
That's an awesome theme. I'm looking forward to it!

Interesting. The first song on my disc is "Loppo, the Children's Happy Clown" by Shock Therapy.
But there's no theme overall.

That's it? For months now I've been hearing about how everyone is privy to intimate details about Sally's mom and that's it?! Man I'm torn between delight at finally being let in on it and disappointment that it wasn't something more sordid. I had it all built up in my mind.

Sweet! I haven't even heard of most of those! I love new music!! I love Shebangs!!
I'm still a firm believer that most of the best songs ever written have been written about girls. What else is there really?
Songs about boys.the day you gave me a son / babyface
alexander the great / iron maiden
what's the frequency, kenneth? / r.e.m.
uncle jonny / the killers
Sally's Pigeons / Cyndi Lauper (yes, Sally was a guy in this case)
...and I know certain things have been said about the Beatles over here on TC, but how could you forget Bungalow Bill?

In my world, girls have always been the major component of the human condition.

I like your answer better than mine, Misha.
I'm so quick to go to the list.

THAT is a great song.
"I went to a party last Saturday night,
I didn't get laid, I got in a fight...
Uh huh, it ain't no big thing"
Genius, right?
And the video:

Forget everything I said about videos being the scourge of Western civilization.

I don't do karaoke but I've always wanted to do that song. Is it on any of the guitar hero/band hero things? It should be.

My son has two versions of Guitar Hero, but sadly it's on neither. No Joan Jett either. :(

I think Joan Jett is crammed onto the end of one of the band-specific ones, like Aerosmith or Van Halen.I've played Bad Reputation on one of them - maybe Rock Band? - at a friend's house. Fun drums for a non-drummer!

I'm glad to hear that you were looking forward to hearing about my mom's sex life, but saddened that this isn't enough. Is there anything else you'd like to know?
I once found out that one of the reasons for the demise of my parents' marriage, or the end of their sex life, was that my dad wanted blow jobs and my mom hated giving them.
This was before I was sure what exactly a blow job was.
They eat EVERYTHING."
Sounds like a 15 yr old boy!
