    Hoops, it is said that those gifted musically are also typically good at math!
    You my friend are the "proof in the pudding" to what has been said, you & @wille that is! smile
    Just so you know they must have used chocolate or banana pudding and NOT tapioca
    when that quote was first mentioned! yikes
  •  mattpierce 2 months ago
    Thanks for the comment Hoops!
    I always thought once a mathematician always a mathematician! smile
  •  avidfanman 2 months ago
    Hi there, thanks for your very kind words about my skirmish track "Falling", glad you liked it. Congrats on being a FAWM 2012 winner, and thanks for the Explore-The-Core challenge - that was fun!
  •  sentense 2 months ago
    I don't like to hear you're not well sad I want to hear that you feel great and healthy. Because you deserve it. *hug*
  •  mikedebenham 2 months ago
    Thanks for the lovely comment, Hoops. Made me a little nostalgic for the days when FAWM was like a small town and I could keep up with what people were doing during Feb. These days it feels like I have to catch a bus a few suburbs over just to see what you're up to. But I've bought a weekly ticket and will be back soon to bask in your music. Take care and get well soon, mate.

    Hi, hoops.

    Just to let you know I've upped a new demo for *30002 (Pleasure and Danger) - sorry to hear you're feeling lousy. Hope it's better soon.
  •  nancyrost 2 months ago
    Get well soon, Hoops!
  •  sapient 2 months ago
    YAKTHOR is the Canadian god of Coffee... wink

  •  dasbinky 2 months ago
    Any comparison to Mr. Bungle makes me weep with joy for days. Thank you, kind sir.
  •  taylortay 2 months ago
    I will try, I've been back at uni and lacking inspiration really! That will be my last song if I do get it done, but I did have a look at the chords earlier in the month, so I will give it another shot! I'm surprised you're keen to hear my take on it!
  •  skullcrush 2 months ago
    Elephants visiting a porcelain store is based on bulls in the china shop :'D But yes, I hope it's also fine as a merely nonsensical thing.
  •  dragondreams 2 months ago
    Erm??? wink
  •  kenficara 3 months ago
    Thanks, Hoop -- yes, I was the harmonica player in the bathroom. I don't know why they always put me there........:)
  •  dragondreams 3 months ago
    You have a potentially quite rude email... wink
  •  dragondreams 3 months ago
    How do you want it?

    As mp3 or wav? wink
  • johnnycashpoint 3 months ago
    Hello, my luv, it's a bit artw*nk, but if you had a moment to do this: http://fawm.org/forums/thread/3250/ then I would love you even more! x
  •  robs 3 months ago
    Thank you for the chords you used in 'The Florist's Waltz', it was very educational! smile
  •  debs 3 months ago
    No, Hoops! I'm glad you didn't - my head would have completely exploded! I kept it in 3/4 for the longest time, but it wasn't suiting my voice as well as it did yours.
  •  debs 3 months ago
    @helenseviltwin I haz your guitarz!
  •  helenseviltwin 3 months ago
    re: guitar tuning - unfortunately, my SG's neck seems to be coming off, and my other guitars are at Deb's, so tuning is dodgy and will remain so for a little while. Sorry sad
  •  calumcarlyle 3 months ago
    Hoops i am only just now hearing your Fawmer Foibles song for the first time! What a cracker! My hat's off to you.
  •  billysea 3 months ago
    Thank you Hoops
  •  taylortay 3 months ago
    Your turn in the Auntie Sin chain, Hoops! I'm in the terrible position of being between you and @wille so don't expect too much of it:

    Have a good FAWM Paul!
  •  cloudboy 3 months ago
    Ha! I was apprehensive of playing a kazoo solo but I felt it worked in the song. Thanks for the feedback and I look forward to hearing some hoops! Will it involve loops?
  •  mattpierce 3 months ago
    HOOPS! LOVE YA MAN!
  •  dustymason 3 months ago
    +1 for Ween...they're local boys
  •  fuzzy 3 months ago
    Saw your "Captain Beefheart" contribution on the Band Names thread and had to drop by to say hello. Anyone who listens to Beefheart is an automatic friend of mine!
  •  namjunerobot 3 months ago
    Greetings Sir!

  •  gslade 4 months ago
    Re:"Cheese Grater Society" - Pretty sure I didn't get around to this one during 5090 (oddly, I seem to always my favs of the year during 5090, not fawm..weird) - Anyway..what time signature was that?
  • benjaminnolan 4 months ago
    Your challenge this year is to come up with a definition for the word "spangleflumps" and then somehow work it into a song in such a way that it doesn't sound out of place. tongue

    Simples, non? big_smile
  •  sapient 4 months ago
    And a very Happy FAMW to you Mr Hoops.
  •  max 4 months ago
