40 days to go?...like there's hundreds of members here that i figured would be lined up to get in, i've been watching things here on and off for some time now and only recently decided to focus a little more into the concept of this website, at the moment i'm in the process of working out how to sucessfully navigate my way around and hopefully in the next 30 days i'll bung something in here and see what the blazes happens, meanwhile back to the forum and observe all the good things i see here. S.S.
Well SS, maybe members are saving the best for last. 40 days is a long time and could be people are still working on producing something. Hard to say. But then again, maybe some newer members or players are intimidated?
I posted an entry but it wasn't with an expectation to win, not at my current level of playing. Are you kidding? I post clips here now and again and they breeze by and off the page without even a comment. Does that discourage me? Nope, I just keep plugging away. I already have 2 more videos ready to post next week...lol. But I entered anyway. But it was to be part of the forum and to be an active member. Join in the fun. Support.
Also, every little thing like this that I do, aids in my learning/journey. Quite often I may play a song and like it very much, feeling proud. Until I try to record it. Suddenly it is never right and I end up doing it again and again. I would suspect this might be common. What better way to practice? That sometimes turns into hours.
I would suggest people join in at least for that if not to support the fact that we are all members of a friendship and learning medium.
Then again, I'm fairly new here and they have done this BYOB a couple of times before. I suppose it all works out. ---------- Tommy

That was cool Tooka, i like it:o) I think you should experiment with some Dubstep and harp. I think that would break some new ground.
I've had Man flu with complications for the past week so i've not played any harp at all. This thread has should kick my arse back into woodshedding again. ----------

I just submitted my entry to the contest. I wish the best for my fellow forum friends.
Feel free to comment!
PD: Isaac, men. Now you add guitar to the mix. Wonderful! What will be the next thing you will do? Add some percussion to the loop? You are getting a "big band" sound! with only one man band.
I really dig it.
---------- With some latin flavour for you, chico!! :P
@CamiloHarper: Thanks man! Yeah, I'm going to add percussion/beatbox into the loop too, but I'm still perfecting my technique for putting it all together. My idea is to set up the backing loop with cigarbox guitar and harpboxing at the same time, then solo over it... BTW, I really LOVED your playing. Great 1st position major feel to it! And, actually, I thought the "out of focus" start was a video effect you applied, like you see in music videos all the time! I liked it!
@all: Man! I just looked at all the videos entered in so far, and I gotta say that this is going to be one TOUGH competition this time! I can't pick a favorite out of the current bunch, so this is gonna be real hard once more of 'em come in! BYBO3 is looking HOT this time! ---------- == I S A A C ==
Im sure ive just seen a video that Kyser put up on this thread but it seems to have disappeared by the time ive come to write this,Very weird.
I recorded my video yesterday only to find that my video camera is making a hissing noise when i upload the video onto my computer.
Ive tried my iphone camera but my amp sounds kinda muffled on it. Im either gona have to record it accoustically with the iphone or borrow another camera.
Im not happy, i took a day of work yesterday esspecially to do it, grrr!!!!

Here it is Ant... I hadnt uploaded it to YouTube... but Facebook... I remedied that. It isnt much but I wanted to participate in some fashion. I hope you all enjoy.
Things are hotting up on the BYBO3 website. The entries are rolling in and by looking at the standard already, I think there's going to be blood on the floor. ----------
Okay, I thought that as more entries came in, it would get easier for me to pick my favorites. But instead it's getting HARDER! This is going to be really difficult, but in the best sort of way! Keep 'em coming you guys! ---------- == I S A A C ==
