I've got a really good idea for this challenge now. Found a key I think I can sing it, hoping to flesh it out in the next few days.

I've got my song arranged. Procedural part is about 60% coded. It's still gonna be a bit for mine, I'm afraid

I'll be at least a week on mine too. Basically, I'll need an evening to work on the drums/arrangement and bassline. The guitars are just smashing out power chords (probably). Then I just need a free afternoon for vocals. End of next week is achievable.

I'm gonna do one but I'm gonna cheat and do one I do every gig because it'll be quick and easy ..... I already have drumbs and bass programmed

Fun!!

Mine may also require some. I haven't decided. I wanted my brother to throw down some banjo and back ups for mine but after asking two times i can get a hint he's not interested.

I have a banjo, and although I can't play it like a banjo to save my life, I'd be willing to add some banjo-played-like-a-guitar if that'd help :)

I think an interesting future challenge might be something that uses percussion "instruments" that aren't actual drums or percussion instruments or VSTi drums etc. Stuff you have lying around the house that you have to hit with things, and record...

Fuck yea dude. I may take you up on that!! I think it calls for banjo in that part. most wouldn't but i think it could be cool. I'll let you know when i get to that point.

I don't think I'd ever listened beyond the first verse. Great stuff, and great rendition of it @Manslick!
