Hi everyone,
Here is the intro video. Summary follows.
Here in Hobart, we have a museum that runs a festival around the time of the winter solstice each year. One of the major themes of both the museum and the festival is death, so I wanted to make this season about death. A bit of research found that Alan Thornton has already hosted a death season, so I thought I'd make this one a bit different. I originally though about getting you all to play murder ballads, but I thought that might be a bit restrictive, so as long as somebody dies at some point in the song, I will be happy.
Rules:
- Somebody has to die at some point in the song
- Uke must be prominent
- Video must be newly recorded (but, if you record a tree song that also contains a death during the period when both seasons are active, I will accept it even if it has been posted to the tree season. The same applies for whatever the next season is.)
- Multitracking is OK
- Season starts at midnight on SATURDAY HST and finishes at midnight the following Sunday.
- 3-song limit
- Prize = local food items for the top 3 entries, which will depend on the customs rules of the country of residence of the winner.
Good luck guys, and keep in mind that Val's fantastic tree season still has a day or so to go, so please keep submitting tree songs.
