Spring 12 Shebang
Yay! More shebangs!I've been thinking of doing a TC-inspired shebang for a while now and have already gathered most of the raw materials so I think that's the theme I'm going for.
I just can't hang with the whole theme thing. I'm all over the map.

I may have to lea..."There's the new album, you could have discovered that, right? Or a good cover you've recently discovered.
I want to be in your Shebang, Smetch, mostly because I adore you and would do anything you asked.I'm nervous though. What if my mix CD is lame? What if I add a song I think is clever and no one realizes I'm being funny? Is that what the liner notes are for?
The stress!! Hope my hair doesn't fall out again and you can be sure that if it does, I'll add some strands to ever shebang envelope to remind you all of my sacrifice.

Possible embarrassment over having a lame mix is quickly overridden by the excitement of "HOLY CRAP! I have TWELVE new AWESOME CDs!!!" Trust me on this.
Around when were you thinking of for a deadline, Gretchen? I'd like to take part but realistically couldn't do much until early April. Your themes sound like fun.

Don't be nervous! YAY!

So if it was like April 10th you're in Jonathan?
Wait...is there a theme? A non-theme? Everybody picks their own theme and has to explain it in liner notes? I'm confused.
All of the above. You can either pick one of the themes Smetchie suggested, come up with one of your own, or make a cool mix with songs you think go together. Liner notes are not demanded but encouraged.
God damn. Can I do this one as a participant and send you EVERYONE's from the last go-round for you to distribute?
I once jumped ship on an abandoned Shebang and Barb, i think, saved me.

Who is this? Sally?
Yes! You can! I was going to suggest it actually!

I'm still not done listening to the last set!
And I'm working hard to keep my head above water in general right now, so I'd rather not risk holding anything up.
You just don't have to send me any back this time. Distribute my copies out to someone else. Or someone pass them on to RA for me.






Shebang anyone? I'll host. (it's my first time, though so be gentle with me.) I've been jonesing for new music for several weeks now and I can't take it anymore. I've found some on my own, and some from scanning the other music threads in TC but I need piles of it.
I've got a couple theme ideas. I'll definitely do one of these but I'm not sure which yet. I would love it if you choose to do a theme with me but if you just can't be tied down that's cool, too.
Sinners and Saints
Love is Stronger than the Law will Allow (that's actually Janet's theme idea but I like it. The shebang nearly composed itself in my head when she mentioned it.)
Spring 12 (Either actually new, favorite band's new songs, or just newly discovered by you.)
