BABY I'M A STAR: MY VERSION.

Here's what I did at the audition:

http://www.blindslim.com/...AR_VOX.mp3

But I pulled out the vocals and the main guitar.

And yes, I kicked that ass. I have to leave right now, but I'll update you later. No, no final word yet. They're sposed to call people over the weekend. If I don't hear anything, then that means I'm too good for them.

DUDE!
Great Job! You really made it all your own. Covering a P tune is damn near impossible, yet you have two down already.

I'm not sure what you CAN'T do, you made a Prince song sound like INXS. It just shows what's on your mind will come out in any music, I guess.

Kickass solo guitar and great job as usual.

TWO Prince song!?

Hellooooo? Adore? Sometimes It Snows In April? Kiss?

CRACKER!

Oh man, thanks for the compliment about the solo - it's poopsauce. Luckily, they cut me off before I got around to the solo.

Tried many flavours - but sooner or later, always go back to the Purple Kool-aid!

f*** man I just posted a blank message. First the bass line must go, cause man it is direct from INXS. I like the chickie thing your doing on the guitar, that should have been dominant in the mix rather than the distorted guitar. The bass line combined with the distorted sound has too many earial connotations. Were you doing that on purpose? I think you were.

anyhows, good job regardless

Yes I was doing it on purpose. I think. I dunno about the aerial conflicts or whatever... I know that the bass isn't following the chord progression, it's just doing it's own line, sort of like a house remix or something. It works for me, so, you know, that's my thing.

Yeah, we want to know more details about the audition. Who was there? What was the setup? Was there a bunch of posers milling around the place? Hutchence imitators? Autoerotic asphyxiation being represented? What's the deal? Did you bring the Variax and wear leather pants or assless chaps?
