Fuzz Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 We're giving away a limited edition 'American Idiot' vinyl by doing a cover contest. Between now and March 15th record an cover of American Idiot and send it in. GDC will pick the top 10 entries, which will then go up on GDA to vote for the winner. More details can be found over at GDA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GenXIdiot Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Does this cover have to be a solo, or can the entrant arrange and perform on the cover and have guest artists (e.g.) family members perform as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

21guns&novacaine Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I like the bit on GDA about publicly shaming theives. On a serious note, what would you guys advise using for uploading MP3's? Like soundcloud? And what devices would you use for the actual recording process? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sara_gd Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 This is tempting!!! But so little time... Also trying to think about arrangements, the musical versions come to my mind and I can't ignore them plus we have the kerrang covers... its going to be hard to do something original! Good challenge haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
