The Overview
Anything goes 'cause none of us knows. Dejahere is going to start a challenge for members to accept or present a new theme. For example, she would start..ummmm
OK, Send a song challenge to one of the members. They would do a great job or just have fun with the song depending on how much of a challenge it would be.

Here is an example: Dejahere will name a song she knows is on SS and then pick a member she wants to challenge to sing it. This would just be for fun or maybe surprises....someone might ace the challenge! But, say Dejahere chooses Char. She'd type: I am challenging Char to sing: "It's Me Again Margaret" by Ray Stevens. LOL...Char could just laugh all the way through, sing it her way, or make a real effort. Then, once done, she could pass back the same song to me, to another member, or pick a new song and send it to anyone in the circle. The song might be a really good song and simply one Dejahere would like to hear another member sing. She might send Char, New York New York.
But, if another member comes up with an interesting theme they could pass on the song and put the idea up for a vote. It could be accepted and started right away or accepted an deferred for a specified time period or declined. Circle members would vote. Or every theme would last a week unless there were no new ideas.

DejaHere has to expand on the overview and a few specifics...just a few words. Really...smile

The song presented can be a challenge or a dare or a "I Will if You Will" type of theme. It can be anything. For example, the challenger could pick any song and/or any theme to present the member chosen. The challenge might be to sing "The Nights the Lights Went Out in Georgia" and make it funny. You might feel a member would sound great singing a certain song from a genre you like, or just one song you know they sing so beautifully, you want them to share it.

Benjiwolf is the forum moderator. I am helping him start this project, but there will be questions no doubt. PM benjiwolf. He will ask me, and I will decide! Joking...it depends on the question. LOL

I'm going to send notices to those individuals who already have access to the circle. The challenges will start believe tart after four members have officially joined. Once a challenge is accepted, unless more time is requested, two days from the time the challenge is made seems reasonable. Let benjiwolf know you encounter a problem and need more time.

Benjiwolf has tagged me to start. He will keep an updated list of members as people join so the challengers will have choices. If there are any members you would like to join us, please let benjiwolf know, and they will be added to the list.

The final recordings will be posted in the inner circle for those who have access to this club to listen. Comments regarding these final recording will be posted privately with the songs.

I will begin sending invites & notices as soon as the final kinks have been smoothed out. Hope to see you soon!

SO, Let's Rock 'n Roll!!!

Good morning everyone..... Today is the first day of "Fall" or "Autumn" which ever you prefer.... I'm challenging everyone in the forum to find a song about the season.

The song can be about the season, or have the words; Fall, Autumn, or Season. The preferred word can be in either the title of the song or one of the words in the lyrics of the song..... Happy hunting..... let's have some fun. Remember..... you need to present your song back here..... by singing and posting it so everyone can review your treasure hunting experience. Present your song in any fashion..... i.e. sing it your best, or make it funny, or silly. This is not a contest...

I reinterpreted Benjiwolf's challenge to suit my song search. Edgar Winter did a song called Autumn Breeze. I found Edgar but the wrong song. Somehow when I saw Johnny Winter's name, and a song I've been wanting to try, Winter was part of his challenge. I'm even gloating in the recording for finding the song so fast. Wow, how embarrassing. But, I will meet the challenge later. I also want to listen to all those beating me to the punch!

OK, Mr. Wolf, I got a twist. This link will take you to a duet. I am singing Neil Diamond's part in "You Don't Send Me Flower's" I challenge you to sing Barbra Streisand's part. You can bring it into your range. I know you can..smile Link: http://www.singsnap.com/snap/r/bfbd2694

Regarding My Silly Challenge to BenI am sorry for the second misunderstanding of the day. Ben had stressed to make sure it was in the proper voice range for the one challenged. I think he was a good sport, but it wasn't fair since he did not intend on a silly performance. Hopefully he will take it off. Good Luck to All. I'm soooo confused. Leslie

Reply by HarrietCGOLD

UPDATE ON CHALLENGES & AN ANSWER TO, "What are we doing? How do we do a gender bender challenge when, as of 2:13 PM EPT, we have but three male members and one is missing..LOL"

I think that is a valid question which I presented to the Mediator; you know him, Benjiwolf. His answer, "More members will be joining." I'm afraid we'll get a flat on HWY 67 if we don't keep something moving.

All members feel free to challenge the men we do have. If anyone can drag chitownjab, John, back in the following will be available: benjiwolf, bmcdonald, and John.

I would love to hear something from everyone over the next 48 hrs. My idea will follow shortly. Please my fellow founders, if you have an idea to fill in the gap here; please post it. As far as the idea that "Anything Goes", "Everything Still Goes"! Let us think.....Deja

thanks for the listens

Edited reply by Deja-BenjiwolfGOLD

Folks, most of you know I'm retired, but even in retirement, a person must keep themself actively occupied.
So, I've decided to make the world a better place by cross-breeding some animals. I'm looking for some suggestions from everyone to help my new business grow... If you can think of anything, please let me know. Right now, I'm cross-breeding homing pigeons with woodpeckers... so when they fly home, they can knock on the door. My next experiment will include crossing minks with kangaroos, so we can raise mink coats with pockets... Any additions or suggestions to this business is surely welcomed. Thanks, Ben
