[QUOTE=cjborton]I'm quite disappointed. Why is this thread not doing a cover for the competition? I would start one, but I'm already working on one for the Bodom thread. Perhaps a bit hypocritical on my part, but I expected this thread to be in the fight.[/QUOTE]

Wanna get one started?

Big Balls would be a fun cover to do.

Well, being as Metal Head said it was ok to be part of more than one thread's cover, I think I may (I'm already doing Bodom). Big Balls woul be funny, but the group vocals at the end may be hard to do. I play guitar and can take lead or rhythem.

I play bass, I've got the easy job :cool:

AC/DC's drums are easy enough that if we can't get a drummer, programming them wouldn't be too daunting of a task. Vocals may be hard to find.

Well, a Size 7 post worked in the Sabbath thread so...

[SIZE=7]Hey guys, wanna do a cover or two for this covers project? It'd be fun![/SIZE]

:)

I am so sick of this Brian bashing. He is NOT crap.

I prefer Bon's voice, its more entertaining.
Brain's is good, but it gets boring after awhile.

Of course I reckon Bon is better but Brian deserves much more credit than he gets.

[QUOTE=rippa32]uhhh Shot Down in Flames is about rejection.[/QUOTE]

So? Its just ironic that its called Shot down in Flames.

As for Brians voice, I think when they lost Bon they lost more than just a singer.

He was the rock and roll passion behind the band. I mean, his lyrics and style for the music was just unbelievably good. He's what made AC/DC that great passionate, entertaining rock and roll band.

When Brian joined, they lost that. Brian just writes lyrics. Some are really good inuendo tracks, and some have nice meanings, but Bon gave the band that edge.

[QUOTE=stevo_13]I used to listen to them sometimes but they have turned in to one of those bands that stupid 14 year olds say they listen tojust to be "cool". All these kids have like a million AC/DC shirts but they haven't heard any songs besides thunderstruck and tnt. They're just jumping on the f**king band wagon so they can seem cool. I feel sorry for these bands but its not like they aren't encouraging it by selling their t-shirts at every store in every mall all across north america.[/QUOTE]

so true

So true. Brian Johnson isn't fit to even speak Bon's name, let alone sing his songs.

Wat are anyones favourite AC/DC songs

[QUOTE=Rush--WorkingMan]Wat are anyones favourite AC/DC songs[/QUOTE]


i like all the classics like thunderstruck but i prefer most of Bon Scotts music. My favourite songs are high voltage, jailbreak and Long Way To The Top

[QUOTE=rock not roll]So true. Brian Johnson isn't fit to even speak Bon's name, let alone sing his songs.[/QUOTE]

Oh come on, he doesnt do a bad job of Whole Lotta Rosie. And he loves what he does so stop bashing him.

For the whole competition thing, uhh depending on the song I could do guitar. Consider me like a backup or something :p

So who's going to be in the cover comp. here?

I'm in, with my axe slinging skilz. I can do drums if needed too (programmed).

Groove, I can do bass if you want.

What do you guys use to record stuff to ur comp? (im a beginner)

My setup:
Guitar > PODxt > USB Port > Audacity (for recording) > Mixcraft (for mixing)

Brum, as soon as we pick a song I can get cracking on it. This, assuming that I do drums too and no one else wants to...Give me a list of about three songs you'd like to do. Then I'll pick one based on what I can play (solos matter here).

Okay thanks for the info but whats a PODxt. Okay now I sound like a n00b

A guitar effects processor, amp modeller, and USB direct recording device.

Hmm....Big Balls, Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap and...Highway to Hell?

As soon as we've made the choice I can get the bass parts recorded.

I dont mean to intrude seeing as it is your project you have going, but I advise against Big Balls, as it has no solo and maybe a song with a solo would be a good choice. But thats just me.

True...but it'd be good for entertainment value, something which some of the other threads may lack...

I might make another size 7 post over in Sabbath land soon.

lol might be an idea. Id do a song for you as Im a guitarist but I have no way of recording.

Rippa, I've been playing 6 years, to answer your question. Brum, I think we'll go with Deeds or Highway because of the reason Rippa mentioned as well as the group vocals at the end, which I'm guessing would be hard. If you're fine with either one of the two I'll take a look at them and let you know as soon I pick one. Sound good?

You got MSN or AIM? EDIT: NM, just stopped being a n00b and read profile :p

/me votes Deeds.

i know you all already have three songs listed there but why not do sin city?
