Ok, here's entry number one in the "First Annual Vikki /Black Fri. Thankgiving Song Challenge" . . . me thinks we're gonna have to shorten the name.I have another that really sucks so I'm holdin' out on that one. however, if I don't come up with something better I'll "man up" & post it.Here's mix one of "You can't Change The Channel On A Dream"(I think that titles gonna have to be shortened too). This probably sucks too but not as bad as the other turkey I have in the oven.I'm assuming the vox will have to come up & the bass guitar down because that seems to be standard with all of my first mixes. Let me know what you think!http://www.billgaunce.com/song/100

billWho ever said a quicky is a bad thing don't know nuthin!!!This rocks man.Great bass line and harp. Must be nice to have a voice that kicks butt:)Is that EZ drummer? If I only would have had that bridge:)Paul

You guys are killing me. I again gotta say, great job, you ought to be on stage, no shit.But how can you produce such clean, crisp, clear music unless you got a big old studio and a bunch of musicians man? I have enough trouble not tipping my wine glass over when i'm trynig to put a trash barrell demo down through my laptop with a single mic, a 35 year old yamaha accoustic guitar while sitting in my RV retired and traveling the country.You guys are amazig.And i gotta ditto the voice. I picture you to be in your late 20's-early 30's, tall, lean, black hair, kinda alternative looking but not in a detrimental way (in otherwords not an athlete) and doing this all by your self. How close am I?Cause i'm an old F^ckr, 57, retired, bad back, blown out knees, a big ol boy.lolDoc

Lastly, where is your website, you must have a bunch of good stuff or maybe even a cd?And feaker, tell me what exactly the bridge was. Yeah i know i'm a dumbass, i know. But this has come up and up and up and it's just not something i really know how to place. I'm not certain when they are using this term are they talking about a lyrical or musical bridge.Point out what it is so i can go back an read it or hear it, okay?Doc

thanks Paul, yes that EZ drummer. What Bridge????? Never got around to a bridge . . . Mmmm, does that mean I'm out of the challenge?Doc, we're the same age, & it's just me & a bunch of old gear. Thanks for the compliment!

You're the man, Bill.Good stuff. As always.

hey river city!!!are we twin brothers with different mothers?got the back, two knees that need replacing (they aren't touching them, i can walk just damned fine..) and feel most days like an old f-er myself....!and don't you know, that bill's picture back when he was YOUNG!!!!!!!!!the best,whoh, damn, need to listen to the tune now...sorry billy

and bill--damn good, as usual, you've met the challenge, as did paul! i didn't attempt it, can't finish nothing in a day or whatever the rule was, and too much happening right now...i understand how paul hears the chorus/bridge, as it is kinda "bridgy" on my only listen, but hey, two for one man...works just fine....great job again--the best,whps: did vicky post her tune, or was it just a general challenge, i read it, but didn't enter...

Still got a day left. Good one, Bill. No bridge, more of a pre-chorus, or what's sometimes called a 'lift'. Very modern. Are bridges passe, yet? Vocals sound more natural than the Petty/Dylan a las, no surprise. Tasty.

Thanks again everybody. Mojo, I think since we learned that the Taxi screeners listen "up to the bridge" we ought to just leave the bridge out. HA, that'll show 'em!
