Where Have They All Gone?

Quote

I'm still waiting for the "new" version of "Rebel Rebel"...

Yeah, but what would I call the post topic? Would it be:

Ziggy Stardust does EV! ,
The Thin White Duke does EV!" , or perhaps
"Aladdin Sane does EV!"

Damn his infuriating androgynous aliases!!

Maybe I could do a Bon Jovi cover entitled "Livin' On Gadzair". No hang on, that's EVO...

As regards CD buying, you're right about using MP3s to test them out before hand. I mean, hearing 5 second clips on Amazon doesn't really help that much. Then again, I bought the Black Rebel (Hey, I might be onto something here) Motorcycle Club album this week on impulse and got lucky 🙂

Maybe not is more accurate. I record songs that I write, with very few exceptions. Plus, I don't like Where Have all the Flowers Gone to begin with.

Pikeman says nothing, but gently shoves BariSaxGuy5 into a room with the Backstreet Boys, padlocks the door, and walks away whistling

Alright, fine. Actually, I don't think it (my version) is very good anyway... I posted it to... to... well, I'm not sure why actually, but I just wanted to keep this board alive.

Oh yeah, welcome back, Pikeman! If you're staying, that is...

Yeah, sorry, turned into a bit of a cryptic nerd there! What I meant to say was I posted 'My Confederation' (a rather poor EV-related cover of The Who's 'My Generation' - Pete Townshend would be turning in his grave. That is, <ahem>, if he were dead, of course) over a month ago, which gave Pikeman the inspiration to produce Game Of Your Life, making the genre even more terrifying by actually recording it...

So it was me who originally founded this abomination 🙂

I expect to be handed over to the proper authorities in the very near future.

Now everyone, that's Game of Your Life, solice for all your Nova woes. Some people call it genius. Some people call it a great cover. Some people call it terrifying. What do you think?

Be careful, you seem to be developing as massive of an ego as I have, just by association. Fear. 😉

Sorry, I just don't think you've been in the community as long as we have (or register dates reflect "the shift", all three of us have been here MUCH longer than that). You at least still have an excuse to be here, we geezers don't. 😛

Indeed. In fact, I haven't played EV in nigh on six years.

It's going quite well, thank you for asking. The only thing delaying it is real life, as I'm just now finishing moving. That put many things on hold.

It'll be out there soon enough. 🙂

Except for playing with my girlfriend's pilot (that didn't sound right), I haven't either, in a bit less time (probably 4 years).

I like to break EV out every once in a while.. EVO lasted about 3 hours on my cpu though 😉

You can call me any one of my 10 commonly used nicknames. Pikeman, pike, pikey, piked00d, One Sexy Bitch, Lucifer, esox lucius, Mr. Wright, timmy, or timmy-reep. Any of these will work. So will my real name, for that matter.

That did sound quite strange.

I didn't play EV after late 1996 and I downloaded EVO sometime in 1999 at which point I actively joined the boards and stopped lurking. I got bored with EVO after about three months and stopped playing it as well and am eagerly awaiting, much like many others on these boards, the release of NOVA; though I refuse to go to the NOVA board to find out anything about it.
