Ok, first thing's first. What the fuck happened to this board? Must be the energy crisis, maybe we ran out of gas or something. Anyway, to try and bring some life back into his hellhole, I am gonna try and steal a play from the other music board I frequent.
Would anyone here be interested in compiling a user made Tim Tribute album? Like, y'know, we could pick out Tim songs we liked, play them however the hell we like and throw them all together? I know there are players here, other than the PezzMan, we got nothing to show.
If anyone is interested just post here if you WILL be able to participate. Don't post some witty bullshit about how you can't play Tim's music. Just maybe a yeah, and the song (or songs) you'd like to attempt. I'll give it a bit of time and see what everyone thinks.
Thanks to anyone who's down. You're pretty awesome. |

Even after 13 years of playing I'm still not good enough to even lick the dirt off of TR's boots... but I'd throw my cards in for Letting Go... my favorite song-- ever. |

Silky, we all know you got skillz, thanks for responding! Letting Go is a fave of mine too, I'll have to email you my top TR rendition...I forget the date curretly.
Anyway, the point it is doesnt have to be perfect, just to show everyone how much Tim's music means to us.I'd like to get at least 8 different renditions, but preferably 10, so if anyone wanted to do 2 that'd be cool, and if not, if it's OK with Pezzman, I'd like to use a couple of the wonderful TR renditions he's done for us.
Post on! I'll surely do one myself, but I'd like to see what everyone else chooses, it may make me learn a new one! (Though I'll probably do 'Hug'...teehee) |

Great Idea Hopeful. I'll start looking over the tabs that you have posted. Any ideas for a good song to start with? Obviously, I completely agree with Silky in that I'm not worthy to lick the dirt off his boots. I could SHINE them, but I am not worthy...I am not worthy..... |

I can do one Tim song, To Touch Yearning. Just let me do that one, because it's all I can do. |

Cool idea Jared. Not an incredibly technical song, but it's always just about been my favorite - Souls - I've been thinking about doing my own version of that one anyway. |

I dunno, I sat down for about 45 minutes and ran through some shit, I may do a medley. TR did High In The West>Arroyo>Letting Go at my house, which was stunning, some of his songs blend so well. Kottke style.
Let's get a few more! |

I need to ponder what I can attempt to degurgitate that hasn't been claimed. YAMS maybe. It'd be fun to do something weird. |

Yeah, only YAMS if you plan on doing a ripping good improv...in 'Bm: the saddest of all keys.' Something crazy would be good too! Try 'Frantic.' AHAHA I'll def honor multiple entries though! We know you got skillz, JTR. |

I think I'll take the more electric route. Maybe I'll lay down a cover of Bowl of the Alter or Beneath the Surface. Of course, my own cover of Skeleton Walls would be an excuse to finally buy that 7 string. |

i'd offer to do something like to touch yearning, although i'm still not 100% ok with covering tim reynolds songs, simply because i always fail to do them proper justice. |

Taking the time to learn them is justice, Dan. We'd definitely like to hear a contribution from you...the more improv the better. The beauty of Tim's music is, with a lot of it, you can go wherever the hell you want.
That is 2 To Touch Yearning's tho, if you can think of another one great, if not, 2 TTY's it is. Variations acceptable!
Let's try and get one more here! You guitar players know who you is! |

sup everyone....i may be able to drop a few tunes.Vantage point(my personal fav.) i can play i few others with the same in mind...just trying to imitate this stuff is all the justice i can do them.
but i am decent at Valley of Flowers,High in the West,Is Anybody Here,As Far As We can See,Torch of Uncertainty,Turn it into Love,....and a few others.if there is anything i can add ,please let me know how i can.
Tim is the greatest guitar player i have ever witnessed.so i have been trying to learn as much of his shit as i can, in hopes that it will only help my playing ability,even if i can never meet his skill level.i love the challenge.

I'm working on trying to do a full band cover of an acoustic song; maybe You Are My Sanity, if no one gets to it first
If anyone needs drum or bass parts, drop me a line and I'll hook it up. I can do programmed drums and regular acoustic as well. |

hey all, new to the board, im actually tim's nephew so some of the songs he's taught me personally (not that i can touch most of 'em!) but i love the idea here with the different tributes. i've had the same idea and would be willing to throw in something. my first thoughts are maybe the band versions of "over it" or "leelines". maybe even 'century sister' or 'smile'. I play(ed) in a dave matthews tribute band and basically i play my uncle's parts in the band so i picked up on a lot of things. let me know, and its cool to FINALLY be on here. peace |

Wow, nice. Welcome aBOARD, Scott. Great to have you. Tim showed me a couple bits of Metamorphosis after the show he did at my place, but I was fairly gone at that point. Learned a lot from my countless Tim DVDs and seeing him live.
So I'll put together a tentative setlist and get a deadline set in the next day or 2. Thanks a lot guys, this is gonna be sweet!
Dan, Rheginos would be dope as I think Nick's only TR cover is To Touch Yearning.
Start practicing everyone! Details soon! |

K, guys. I'll set the deadline as Sunday, June 15 to have all entries either emailed, sendspaced, yousendit-ed, or what the hell ever to me.
I'll thank in advance everyone participating, and remember: HAVE FUN WITH IT. Tim will for sure hear this, so put your hearts and souls into it.
I'd like everyone who's doing a track just to send me a simple email ASAP with their board name and what song(s) they will be submitting.

What do you mean put it up? Just mail it to me.
It also seems that no one really has the time or has put forth the effort to get this done by July 1st, so I'll move it up to August 1st in the hope that we can really do something special here that Tim will appreciate.
AUGUST 1st! Let's do it. |

A few have emailed me some tracks, but I'm just gonna keep this open until everyone else gets their stuff in. Give me a couple days to get around to getting what I have leveled and arranged, and to all who have sent emails, I will respond soon.

I'm working on mine with what time I get between school and work. Like I said in my email, laying down drums, guitars, vocals and bass has proved very time consuming, especially for a perfectionist like me. I'm happy with what I have so far though! |

My Bowl of the Altar cover is about 75% finished...but I kind of stopped working on it, and other music projects, all together since other stuff kept coming up. I still want to finish it though. |

No, Nick, you weren't.
I got 6 submissions total from 4 of you. I have 2 of my own, that doesn't exactly a tribute make, maybe if a few more people follow through with their recordings, I'll post the compilation...
So far: Impermanence, High in the West, Imaginary Time, You Are My Sanity, Souls, and To Touch Yearning have all been mailed to me. I'd like to get 4 more, and include my 2 to put it all together. |

Well, if there's some time before all the submissions are in, let me redo my take on Imaginary Time. I was listening to it, and the delay settings I had were a little too much and it's just throwing off everything.
Let's keep this project moving. I'm excited to hear everyone's takes on TR's pieces. |
