Okay people, here you go. Keep in mind that this was totally random. I will be PMing everyone tomorrow with the name and mailing address of the person who you will be sending to. I guess there's no specific time limit for getting your mix mailed - just do it in a courteous amount of time, I guess. Let me know if you have any questions.

Maybe I can introduce Neuboy to some good music for a change...

This should prove to be interesting...

SNAP! I thought i was in on the action!

you must've forgotten to pm jamiecarroll...haha. sucker.

1 dr. woman, i hope i can give you an enjoyable cd. but be warned...i suck. i know that james riot will supply me with a wonderful tape. his music knowledge far surpasses mine.

an all caps THANK YOU to jamiecarroll for putting all this together.

i'll just steal deathscythe's tape from exliontamer to make me feel better about myself.

actually i'm getting a cd from lawnwrangler if you paid attention, damon. and no, you can't have it.

and in case you meant that you'd steal my cd that i send to elt from elt (that's confusing), you'd better not.

you mean deathscythe's tape from thelawnwrangler? damn, you can't get anything right.

don't fret, i'm sure more than a few people will be willing to share their tape with you.

*nevermind...darn speedy posters.

soma: since you and i have very similar music tastes, rest assured you'll be able to satisfy 1drwoman's ears. just don't put fiona apple on there. hahah.

btw, kudos to JC for not only planning, orchestrating and following through on this event, but also for displaying the roster in such an eye-appealing manner.

(Edited by deathscythe257 at 3:30 pm on Jun. 26, 2003)

haha, thanks for the tip. i'll be sure to leave fiona on the shelf.

Damo, I think that you were one of the people who PM'd me, but only said, "I want in on this." Your address, man, that's what I needed from you. That and your media of choice. I'm sorry.

But you know what? Stalker on Skates also missed the bus. Maybe you two can just make a mix for each other?

Thanks smee for giving out tips on my listening preferences! haha...I had already thought it would be funny if you (smee) and I ended up making cd's for each other, but I would gladly do it!

Sexy Sadie, I'll try not to let you down!

i ain't mad.

OK, last night I PM'd everyone with the info that you will need. Let me know if you have any questions.

i feel left out............is there any way i can join?

maybe you, damon, and sos can work something out, since you all seem to be left out...? pm each other.

i was also going to say "you can always get in on it next time." but is there going to be a next time? is this gonna be something we do every so often or is it just a one time thing?

sos - damon
damon - ghostflower
ghostflower - sos

how does this sound? or would we rather mix it up a bit?
pm me, slackers.

That's the way, SoS.

HSS, I don't know if this will be a one-time thing or not. I guess if everyone really likes it, we could do it again. Maybe like quarterly or something. Or maybe just every summer. I don't know.

(Edited by jamiecarroll at 11:42 am on Jun. 28, 2003)

i'm excited.
SOS be prepared!!!

i'm down

I decided after the fact that I would've liked to have been included. I couldn't get anything out in a timely fashion right now. (just ask ghostflower...)

I'm so excited! Also a little cowed by trying to find something for that Mistress of Music smee, but it'll be fun anyway. And I feel lucky to be the recipient of a tape from ray davies!!

yadadada........you were fast enough. the wait built the suspense!

i'm a little scared because i honestly don't think anyone likes the same stuff i like. are we supposed to find songs that we think our person would like, or should we put the ones we like on there in hopes of turning them on to something new?

Turning them on to something new. I'm just putting some of my favorite songs on there and working on mixing it good and that's it. Not a clue what James Riot likes.

I'm so proud of myself; i finished damon's mix today. I didn't put any blur on it, but i think he might like it anyway.

when everyone is done, i would LOVE to read a sample tracklisting. just an idea.

As a thank you to JamieCarroll for arranging this, I'm making a copy of my mix CD for him. I encourage others to do the same. I'm sure you'll be able to find him at just about any Features show.

even though i got left out because i never pay attention to anything, carligula gave me a cd without the game....and i can always count on richard dawson to supply some monotonous joy division, etc....mix cd's for me......i love you rob

in light of this discussion, i stumbled across another site & wanted to share:

http://www.tinymixtapes.com/features/amg.phtml

"Here's the deal: You send us a style, genre, word, phrase, or emotion, and if one of our mix tape robots fancies your suggestion, that crazy set of circuits will make a mix tape out of it-- well, at least the tracklisting for it."


they also have a link to this site: http://www.explodingdog.com/ in which you send a title and a dude draws a picture based on your title.

Thanks for the mix Cd, keith. You put alot of work into it. I played the De Novo Dahl song on my radio show. Did anyone else get theirs? I need to get my act together and send out mine for Bowl of Fire.

No problem. I hope you liked it. I am definitely enjoying my CD from Smee. Thanks again.

I wanna see full reviews!

Word has it that exliontamer's mix is on its way to me. I'm sure Neuboy's already thrown mine away.

hmm... it could be...

haha...dude, i think he means the mix cd that exliontamer made for him, rather than that which you made for exliontamer.

oh. I thought i'd sent it to the wrong address for a second...

that's what i get for being egocentric...

(Edited by deathscythe257 at 11:36 am on Jul. 17, 2003)

Just in case tlw reads this- your tape will not be there for another week or so due to severe procrastination. Sorry...

I got a mix tape from Sadie and it is amazing! It's one of those tapes that you can just listen to over and over again, and I love it.

Have most of ya'll gotten yours yet, or no?

Aw, that really does make my day.

I have yet to receive mine, but I understand people are busy, and I'm sure it will be worth the wait.

I got mine from exliontamer at the last Features show. I was not surprised whatsoever by the tracklisting (Wire, Gang of Four, Clash, Komeda, Devo, etc.), but I was pleasantly surprised at how great some of the songs were. For the most part, I've always considered this genre as a whole to be uninteresting, repetitive, monotonous, and style-over-substance. My viewpoint has been greatly changed now, though. I was hoping to one day get the chance to sit down and give it a proper review, so maybe I'll write more later.

Thanks again, elt.

damon, my disc for you got me to nashville and back a few weeks ago. you know you want it. anytime now.

will you be at the alleged exit/in show? by the way, was i supposed to make one for you or somebody else? i can't remember. i have one, but i don't remember its destination...

i think you were supposed to make it for me Damon......plus....i still have one for Stalker, i've just been too lazy to get it out...so i guess i'll drop by the post office tommorrow....

do you have my adress?

i don't know what you're talking about.

Will another round of this be coming up soon? I'd like to get involved.

Just wanted to publicly & belatedly thank raydavies for his outstanding piece of work. It's a really good mix of stuff I know & love and stuff that is completely new to me. Highlights: You and I- Silver Apples, Cindy Tells Me- Eno, Turtles Have Short Legs- Can. Muchas Gracias!!

Im very glad that you enjoyed it. I was worried that you may not have received it........but alas, you did......

um, i think i mentioned my love for the silver apples you and i on the message board a very long time ago.

Ah! Maybe that's where I had heard the name before. Because the name was familiar, but I definitely had never heard the song & when I looked them up on allmusic, it didn't ring any bells.

then, obviously, you win.

what's her prize?

this may be a delayed response, but am i supposed to give you my address? i guess it would make sense for me to do so. as son as i get one...

your soul.

That's good. She needs one.

my soul? i might be using it at some point. could i maybe lease it out to her for a bit? come on, we're all reasonable people here...

i'm wondering if exliontamer enjoyed the mix i made... probably not...

What if I traded you for some Alf pogs? Remeber Alf!?! Well, he's back-- in pog form!

Teddy Ruxpin and I went to school with a guy who had a pog maker in middle school. He made porno pogs and sold them to all the little perverted junior high guys. Every day he would come to school with a new batch of little pogs with pictures of vaginas, penises, and boobies. Hm, boobies.

He had a cool walk.

Wow....I just made X-Men pogs with my pog maker...

That could be the coolest band name ever.

I used mine to make Features Message board pogs. I used the pictures from people's avatars.



OK, not really.

are we going to do the mix tape exchange again? we really should have a second round........

Yeah, we can make that happen. When do ya'll want to do it?

asap

snap, i haven't even given ghost flower his tape yet!

I'm in favor of joining in this round, and I'd like to do it soon.

instead of a mix tape exchange

how about i tell you what bands and albums to check out

and then 6 months later you guys can talk about how much you're into them now!

oh wait....

I think i'll participate this time as well, and i'd like to start asap as well. I might have important school work to do in a few weeks...

Really, is it that hard to spell out "as soon as possible"? Sorry, but that just gets on my nerves.

man, keith toby keith is so great! thanks!

BTW, IMHO it is hard to spell out ASAP. ROTFLMAO!!! WTF?!?!?!?

a/S/L ?!?!?!?!

i dont mind "asap" but other ones like "ur" and "wat" or whatever when its missing one or two letters really bugs me. i mean comeee oooon.

i shall never do it again

NSI*



















*neither shall I

I don't see what 'ASAP', which has been an acceptable acronym for many years, has anything to do with internet abbreviations.
