I think it's a pity this won't happen, but as The Kid said a few posts above I saw it coming as well...

Yeah I agree with what Nicolacci says. I just really hope I can get a new hi hat stand in soon, I've been begging my friend for him to sell his to me.

Why not just doing the remaining parts with the people who already did parts ? Would really suck if this project didn't come to an end, just like when TV shows ends after one season and no proper ending !

Well whatever you wanna do, I'm in. I ordered new hi hats (AAX stages) to arrive in the next few days and my snare doesn't sound so much like wank now ;)

But your wank sounds so good.

I'll second this.

And a nice big spank on my ass for forgetting to do this.
I will try to get some filming done on Wednesday or Thursday.
I will do as many parts as I can.
Promise, promise, promise.

Maybe we could do something like A Rite of Passage with less people? The stems are there which makes people recording their parts a lot easier, they can just take out their instrument and do it that way

Not to mention AROP is easy as shit compared to Metropolis

I really want to do this by my hi hats have been broke for a while and the parts I picked use them both open and closed :(

im resigning my cold feet to thinking this is not gonna see the light of day

and i think i mixed my metaphors just then

i sent about 40 PMs, and in a week have gotten about 5 replies. people who read this, dont take it the wrong way, im not offended or angry at all! i think the fault is mine because i bit more off someone else's sandwich than could be chewed.

maybe later we can do a smaller/better organised cover, but i think probably the plug will be pulled in the coming weeks (or ill just leave the thread here to gather dust)!

and if this doesnt happen, sorry to those who already put time and effort into getting their parts done and doing solos.. but ill have you know i still have your .zips and enjoy watching them occasionally

I think that for a first try this project should have been smaller with less people involved

yeah me too... i WILL send PMs today (sorry for not doing it before ) but i really doubt that people havent seen the thread since it gets bumped pretty often... i guess it was a bit too bold to try something so big!

let me explain my silence!

My snare drum sucks, my bottom hihat is cracked like a motherfucker, and I'm anxiously checking day by day when my college loan is gonna pop up in my bank account so I can replace!

I'm still in love with this idea, I'm just ashamed of my crappy sound and trying to do the best I can

Well, during the first 2 months of the project only 5 people recorded their parts.. So yeah, I'd be surprised if it takes less than a year at the current pace

I just noticed, doesn't the song go "The final is love, love is the dance of eternity" as opposed to "the third is love blah blah"?

Can't believe I missed this thread!

Are you still taking people? I'd love to contribute to this (drums).

yep head to the link posted above me, and pick a couple of parts youd like. since the people who signed up earlier have all gone on vacation, if you can get your stuff done in a week or so, you can probably do some more parts :D

Re:Hey forum! Let's cover Metropolis. Who's in??? (Nicolacci)
