who cares if its easier? i thought these contests were judged by how well the song was played, not how hard a time the people had recording it.

and aren;t there a few people here who say that whether a song is simple/complex/hard-to-play/easy is no indication of its musical value?

you're right, but id rather have a contest on talent. not how many times i can do the guitar part over then the vocal part to make it sound perfect. its like a contest of who can play live the best.

i just think it would be something different. last time we had a contest, 2 freaking people signed up. so it sucked. we didn't even get to do it. i don't want that again. but if a lot of people are goign to join, then we can do it whatever way you guys want, as long as i get to enter....dammit

Stop getting so defensive FJ. By 'easier' I think tico means that by multitracking, one can concentrate on nailing the guitar parts and then the vocal parts separately (yielding a better final product) without needing the talent to put the two together.

Are you aguing that someone who sings awesome and plays awesome, but can't do the two together is equally as talented as someone that can sing and play just as awesome as the first guy, but can do them together? That's a tough one to sell, dude...

I'd be up for a single-track challenge, but not everyone (including me) has the equipment to produce a good recording of it. I can get good sound from my guitar and then vocals each as separate tracks, but to record them together I'd be relegated to using the PC mic.

i dont think talent matters at all, i thought the votes where based on how well the song was pulled off. who cares how hard it was to accomplish?

Yeah, me neither. At least we determined that FJ can't sing and play at the same time...
