The LEGENDARY 12 Song Album Game!

[djmelbatoast]

This theme sucks.

[AD]

They do...

1. Bob Dylan - Gotta Serve Somebody (Steve Murphy Band)

2. The Grateful Dead - Franklin's Tower (Passenger)

Then wouldn't Passenger and Steve Murphy Band be the actual submissions?

Hmm... That is a sticky wicket. Are we deferring to MarcO still or did BradM successfully get all Robert's Rules on this?

Ain't Hurting Nobody is not on DD's new CD.

**** edited, see my next post below ****

Sorry, just clued in to this mess.

This theme could have been played out according to the rules as set out from the beginning but it's clear it's going to be difficult. I am sure that enough of the artists that played this past weekend at CTMF have released albums with tracks that could qualify for the theme, be they originals or covers (remember, "bootleg" style versions are not eligible here, and never have been). So, if the Steve Murphy Band has a CD (I don't know) and they played a song from it at CTMF, then that song can stay on the list. Listing a song they did but have never "released" is ineligible. But unless they only performed that one song for their set, there should be other options available.

It's also obvious that for this theme to continue some editing will have to be done to it to make sure it falls within the rules. Part of the challenge of the game as a whole is to make it through the most difficult themes so we can't just abandon the theme, or else we abandon the game as a whole.

I say: edit this list to what is applicable to theme. Then, rope in some of those dirty disgusting wookies who went to the festival to apply what's left of their brains to finish the task at hand properly, and then we can move on and pretend this never happened, like the career of the Disco Biscuits.

As for who gets to "change" the rules, I'd argue they haven't really changed much since the very beginning, they just needed some clarification from time to time. We're heading towards almost 300 themes now (!) and I don't recall having to correct much as of late, so we're doing good. But it would a nightmare to have everyone changing the rules as they see fit, just to suit their own themes or entries, so I - quite frankly - want the final say on these matters.

This theme can be finished, just fix it up and think a little harder about what those bands (who have released material) played!

Go, we're almost at #300!!!

I think we've resolved this.

i need a beer ...

.... and a lawyer ...

Alright then ...

I tend to agree with Alabama Man. A pattern of behaviour has been established that appears to set out an acquiescence by all involved to allow final arbitration to be done by MarcO, when all other avenues for resolution have been unsuccessful. In my submissions, I suggest that there is no evidence of any other system in place, and no rule to account for this particular situation, and on that basis, by default and established prior practice, MarcO should be deemed final arbiter of all such disputes.

ALL OF WHICH IS RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED, THIS 6th DAY OF SEPTEMBER 2007.

State-dependent learning!

State-dependent learning is a phenomenon of learning and recalling that is based upon the physiological and mental state of the organism.

Factors affecting state-dependent learning may include: environment, intoxication, emotional state, and sensory modality.

For example, people in a drunken state remember events when they were drunk, but they cannot remember when they are sober.

Thanks for stopping in Marc0. So to review what we have here:

270 Songs You heard at CTMF this past weekend

1. Bob Dylan - Gotta Serve Somebody(Steve Murphy Band)

2. The Grateful Dead - Franklin's Tower (Passenger)

3. United Steel Workers Of Montreal - Ask Me Stay (Dedicated to me!)

4. Fat Cats- Doobie Break

5. Diesel Dog - Ain't Hurtin' Nobody

#1 is not on Steve's disc. (unless he has two CDs now, in which case I don't know)

#2 I don't know

#3 is officially released by USWM

#4 I can't remember, its not on Fatties first CD

#5 Is not on either of Diesel Dog's CDs

[color:red][edit to add]

Of course, this sorta depends whether or not the song submitted must be officially released by the artist that played it at CTMF or just offically released period, by any artist. I think we're still in limbo on that ruling.

jeesh, im even more confused now ...

i need two beers ...

... pass on the lawyer this time ...

[StoneMtn]

Perfect. That means I can close this file and render to you my final bill.

You will receive it shortly.

STOP THE PRESSES!

Come to think of it, the theme being "Songs You heard at CTMF this past weekend", all you need is to make sure the song has had an official release, not necessarily by the band who performed it.

So the theoretical CD with this theme would have Bob Dylan doing "Gotta Serve Somebody", not Steve Murphy Band. Got it?

In this case, "Doobie Break", having never been released officially by anyone would have to go. And unless the DD song is a cover of an otherwise released song (it's not on either of their cd's apparently), it would have to go too.

Sorry, this one was confusing. I think the one remaining sticking point is that you would have had to have attended the festival in order to make an entry. If you weren't there, you couldn't have heard a band play any of the songs.

That leaves us with

I Just checked through the old itunes, and found Ain't Got None wasn't on their last one, but's actually on the Cherry Hits CD, so it's in.

[StoneMtn]

Does this theme mean songs we heard played live last weekend, or just heard at all?

That isn't even the song on the list, BR. Ain't Hurtin' Nobody is a John Prine song.. I think it's on Fair and Square.

This game has become quite complicated..
