You must also enter another song, by an artist of your choice (except GNR), please state the artist, song and album if you can. Again this can be of any software, instrument etc, same rules apply.All entries must be in by the 6th of February 12:00 GMT.Any queries or suggestions, post them here.Judges:Markyboy101The SandmanSsiscoolTottenham HotspurSykPowerage5Dirty Deeds Edited January 7, 2009 by markyboy101 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

final_touches Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Does anyone have the chords for the song? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Binge_And_Slash Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 If anyone gets me a tab/chords for this song I will do the greatest version ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marky Posted January 8, 2009 Author Share Posted January 8, 2009 I dont have tabs, but I know its based around Dm and Bb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P.A. Guns Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Yeah, is a half-step down? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tkkyj Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Marky,Are all the songs going to be from Chinese Democracy?What do you think about revealing what all of the songs will be? I think it would be useful because I am most likely not going to have as much time as I would like to work on these, and if there is some song that I obviously will suck at, then I can duck that one in favor of concentrating on another...Is the judging going to be "what sounds like a reproduction of the original recording?" or "which sounds like the best reinterpretation of the song?"Thanks! I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to enter or not yet, so anything you can do to pump up the contest will keep me interested Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tater Totts Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Well I dont know about Marky but surely we should try and get things rolling a bit faster by having a date by which entries should be completed by? Say the end of the month? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demon Wolf Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 I'm just gonna make my cover over one single chord. It's faster than trying to figure out the damn thing. It's usually easy for me, but somehow my mind starts to melt when I try to figure out Sorry.So Dminor all the way it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
