I'm back in the saddle again...I'm baaaaack!!!
This will be my 6th year attempting FAWM. Each year, I've come away with songs that I like, so I'll keep doing it until I hate them all.
This year, I'm going to try to make everything ROCK as much as possible. Nothing makes me happier than some loud ass guitar.
I'm also going to try to focus on making weird sounds, intentionally using crappy mics for effect, random objects, field audio, etc. Lets go!
I love hearing what folks come up with, too.
New toys for hopeful inspiration/rocking: Fender Telecaster, 1974 Fender Vibrolux and a couple of other glorious tube amps, Fender P bass, Philicorda organ, harmonium, Danelectro 12 string.

I would LOVE to! What a cool freaking song!
I'm crazy busy this week, as it's tech week for the HS, but I'll see what I can do. If you shoot me an e-mail with the details and what you're thinking, I'll gladly take a look! 
sajoli86@gmail.com. Sweet! Thanks!

She's up: http://fawm.org/songs/6920/
I can't thank you enough. You gave it exactly what it needed.
@gerrybhoy Feb 22
Hi Tim, great, not sure what song you have in mind, all my stuffs on soundcloud
https://soundcloud.com/gerrybhoy
if its from FAWM it will be on there.
@gerrybhoy Feb 22
Hi Tim, it is in the dropbox, you should have an email inviting you to join.
@philnorman Feb 22
Will have a whole family's worth of "no" for you this evening...
@vomvorton Feb 22
I've emailed you some NO action! Let me know if it doesn't turn up or whatever.
@gerrybhoy Feb 22
Tim, I have a selection of no's for you, email me and I will upload them into dropbox and invite you to share.

@oddbod Feb 20
Cheers Tim, this was a good one.
@klaus Feb 19
I have added you on my watclist like two weeks ago but only now had the time for listen. Great job. Just love it.
@jennsings Feb 16
Currently all of my original songs need music. If you don't like anything I've posted, let me know what type of thing you'd like to do and I'll come up with something.
@oddbod Feb 15
Hi Tim, I've sent you a message on Facebook
@oddbod Feb 12
Might have something concrete by the end of the week that might well suit your vocals if you're still up for it. I'll let you know by Friday hopefully.
@oddbod Feb 6
Hi Tim, I'll punt something over to you as soon as I have something that could be suitable. I'm struggling finding time at the moment though, but I'll do my utmost.
@charliecheney Feb 5
Bracken me lad. Donna forget me.
Made a sorta pop-rocker with debs you might like.
http://fawm.org/songs/1967
You/Me write soon, okay? Yay. Okay.
@kidd Feb 5
God they sound good...I'm jealous! All i've got's a snare drum and a lot of neighbours!!!
@mccannrs Feb 5
No problem dude, it was sick!
@jennsings Feb 5
Hey! I just listened to all of your songs and want to say that I am excited to be paired with you! Great stuff! Yay!
@jennsings Feb 5
Not yet, but I will! 
@jennsings Feb 4
Howdy. It appears we are paired up for a collab. Thoughts?
@thetau Feb 2
In "Time" you got a good drum sound. I also checked out your listed site and the songs there sound good as well.
. I'm not only weak on drums, but have to resort to synth drum machines. I'm asking "maybe" I could steal some of your drummer skills for a track or two this FAWM??

@rickamorphis Feb 1
Doing this again? Good!
@steffan Jan 31
Yes sir. So very excitement time.
@evinwolverton Jan 31
I'm in for an 808 band. If I get to Andre 3000 falsetto all over something.
@tcelliott Jan 31
You got more "new toys for rocking" than I have total toys for rocking. A tele AND a vibrolux? Seriously, dude? You can't be serious. I look forward to hearing them.
@evinwolverton Jan 31
YYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH
@thetau Jan 31
OH! yea Glad to see you
Russ
@shoushane Jan 31
How do you like the 74 Vibrolux Reverb? Is it original or has it been blackfaced, other mods, or speaker change? I have a 74 Vibrolux Reverb too!
@charliecheney Jan 31
I love my Tele. Maybe I could co-write a lyric for you this year. This year looks to be a wild ride of trying anything for me, it'll be pretty eclectic at times I think. Letting it all fly, whatever pops up is fair game type of thing.
@mikeskliar Jan 31
Welcome back ...some great new "toys " there I see you have!
@philnorman Jan 31
I don't know what's with ya. Aaaaaaah.
@gerrybhoy Jan 31
Oh! Yes, one of my favourite songsters. Let's get Smithing.
@dustymason Jan 31
FAWM much and good
@vomvorton Jan 31
You're on! Let's get CRAZY.
@kristian Jan 31
that sure is alot of new gear!
have a great FAWM and I'll def look you up if I need some drums / bass or whatever!
@oddbod Jan 31
Hey there Tim, looking forward to hearing something new from you. Quality assured songs as per usual.
@max Jan 31
Happy FAWMing 2013!
