Bob - your voice has never sounded better I swear you've morphed into an animated character. Does Katie know this? Andrew - you are such a good sport riding this sleigh through the ether. Great bass work and excellent lyrics - stunning production and more fun than a barrel of short cords. Check out my latest song called fig field

| five_extra_arms said 909 days ago (December 22nd, 2010) | |

Actually Singing? Who? ME? You must have my screeching confused with Andrews smooth layer of vocal bliss. After he bumped his head, he asked if I wanted to sing lead, (didn't anyone warn him?) so I huffed and I puffed and I had a great fall. Vibrato? More like Vibraslap!

Ha Ha We hoped people would get a good laugh out of this one. Andrew came up with the funniest lyrics. I was most impressed with him. And another thing, he might look like a professional musician on the outside, but deep within, he's a raving lunatic. Fact. Check out my latest song called She Was Nowhere

Andrew and Bob, For your homework you must calculate the total value of the package after all twelve days (minus the human interest gifts of course). Of course I just want one of the twelve Garage Band 11 CD's. Check out my latest song called E Lucevan Le Stelle
|
| alackbass said 909 days ago (December 22nd, 2010) | |
|
Thanks Stephen But as you heard there was only one GarageBand 11 CD! We'll see about getting you one of the six Monster cables. Thanks for being one of the ten+ fans a smiling. We appreciate it! Check out my latest song called Close to the Bone by Jerry Quinn
|
| sschedra said 909 days ago (December 22nd, 2010) | |
|
It cumulative . . . On each of the twelve days you get all the gifts again PLUS the additional days gift. So after twelve days of gifting you would have 12 Garage Band 11 CD's, 22 Ribbon Mics, 30 VST's, etc, etc. So why hoard all the wealth. After all, it is far better to give than receive . . . (LOL). Very Merry Christmas and thanks for a year of growth and friendship, Stephen Check out my latest song called E Lucevan Le Stelle

Truly A piece of Christmas awesomeness. You know you've got a winning concept when it gets stuck in someone's head before they've even heard it. I was looking at MJ on my phone last night before I went to sleep and saw this. I was dreaming, "Fiiiive Extrrraaa Arrrms,"all night. You guys rule. This is a big part of what Christmas is all about, community and happiness. Thanks for the download. I'll bust this out every year from now on. :) Check out my latest song called Merton's Prayer (work-in-progress with Jim Bouchard)
