Doctor J Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Likewise. There's such an impressive diversity between all the music submitted, considering the inspiration came from the same pair of pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Level peggings with Lenny..! How can I explain to the few friends I have left..? Is there a 'slush fund' I'm unaware of..? Poor ol' Rikki, too; he seemed such a nice chap. I'll check with Skol; there's surely some mix-up here. Maybe it's my headphones..? No, they don't appear to be contaminated. An elaborate BC joke..? Aha..! Yes; that's it, surely..! Come on, lads, the best are the shortest. Give over; you've 'ad yer laff. Put the voting back as it should be. Lads..? Lads..? Anyone..? Ooo errr...

Leonard Smalls Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Mwahahahaha! My dastardly plan is coming to fruition! Soon we will rename this forum FreeJazzChat, where all talk of bourgeois melody or of shackling our creativity by the imposition of reactionary time signatures will be banned! Now where's my white cat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dad3353 Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Pull away, young lad; pull away. Early daze yet; there is still time to avert the catastrophe and restore balance and order to our Universe. The Forces of Write will win through, Chaos will be banished back to the Deep Dark from whence it sprung. Maybe not this time, maybe not in my time, but True Tempo will out, and reign Master of all in the fullness of time. Enjoy the spoils whilst you may; the victory is ours in the Long Game. In the mean time, here's a little light music ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VBlFHuCzPgY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rikki1984 Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 About an hour after this poll opened 3 people had voted and I had received 3 votes. I promptly handed in my resignation to my boss in anticipation of the fame and fortune that undoubtedly comes with winning this competition. Now that 8 more people have voted and I've not received a single other vote I've had to come crawling back to my boss and beg for my job back - that wasn't pleasant!

SubsonicSimpleton Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Really enjoyed listening to all the entries, thanks to all for sharing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dad3353 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 My humble apologies to Lenny for the horrendous punctuation error (now corrected...); I there's no excuse for the distraction that allowed this to occur. Of course, I wish him the very best of luck in taking, for now, the top spot in this month's Challenge; a success richly deserved and long overdue. ([i]Rich indeed. It certainly is rich when one is totally unable to come across a 'through gritted teeth' emoticon when one needs one. I'll just have to make one myself, I suppose. Oh well, at least it will be useful on many occasions in the very near future, there's at least that small comfort[/i]...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
