Honestly, I would prefer to do an original composition myself. However, I'm trying to keep this simple to start with and have decided that a cover song works better, simply because it gives everyone a common starting point. In order to generate sufficient participation, I've also decided that the song needs to be simple enough that it's not going to exclude some of our members who have maybe not been at this music thing as long or aren't quite as obsessive.
If I can get this to work out, original compositions will be included in the future.
Of course, if you can provide ftp space that would be great. Myspace is hardly the ideal, and was chosen solely due to availability.
I can't see roachboy getting involved in our initial endeavour. I think it would bore him. That said, he may now show up to prove me wrong.
We'll give this a couple more days to see what happens, then we'll get started. We have enough now to do something, but I was hoping for a slightly better turnout.
