so now the end is near.......
So it really does look like this forum is coming to an end very soon. I just wanted to say a big thank you to all the people who have contributed and helped me over the years - it really has been a lot of fun. Don't forget there are still ways you can post your music - there is the excellent Beyond My Daw (set up by the lovely Bapu) http://www.beyondmydaw.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?fid=3...and the new Bandlab forum which seems to pretty much mirror this site https://discuss.cakewalk.com/index.php?/forum/30-songs/ Hope to see you on the other side Happy New Year Daryl

A big +1 to that, I've really enjoyed this particular section of the forum.

I used to enjoy it.
The constant tactical bumping ruined it IMO. I'm hoping that the new one will be different.

I'm a little pessimistic about it, I have a feeling we'll be seeing a lot of threads with hardly any replies, similar to a few other song forums I've joined and quickly abandoned. Ever since I've been on here there's been a regular bunch of people who do most of the commenting, and they've dwindled to a handful now.

Yeah, that bugged me too. And I wish I could find a forum for acoustic singer-songwriters where people just post links to videos accompanying themselves on guitar, banjo, piano and such playing and singing live (whether in the studio or at a gig), where the focus is on the song and arrangement rather than studio productions. Real people playing real instruments. That's what I search for at YouTube.

I didn't post any songs and didn't comment much but was a frequent visitor and enjoyed listening. Thanks to all the contributors!

Did you ever try Songstuff? http://www.songstuff.com/It's a mighty big forum though. I quit posting there about 10 years ago because it got too big, but it does have a slew of subforums.

I think you might well be right, but I was trying to be optimistic.

Why is it that even though I agreed with you it seems like I did something wrong?

Agreeing with James is wrong? Ok, I guess I did do something wrong then. Guilty as charged. Maybe the monkey collective should write a song about that and see if you can get one more on the first page before the doors are closed?

I poke my nose in here at least once a week always. A lot of times I feel it best not to comment on the songs that are posted as I don't like saying nasty things to people who are honestly trying their best to create art. But I have often found some amazing recordings mostly seem to be from those who have been at this for a long time. This forum is a wonderful tool you can use to get honest no **** peer feedback on your handywork. The new forums Song forum I do think will carry on nicley for us.
It's cool when you think about what we can now do with our music. I certainly wouldn't have been sending any of you guys Cassettes :)

It's been a lot of fun over the years and I've learned a hell of a lot just from the feedback I received on here. A really good community and very few ever got too big for their britches. I look forward to finding you folks elsewhere!
