...a "transatlantic" covers CD... a handful of our favorites put together from opposite sides of the world.
Cuff and Jamie could head into the studio and lay down the rhythm, some drums and some bass to get us started... then send it over to me, I'll put down some vocals and guitar... then back again, so Cuff and Posh can dub over all my vocals and re-record all my guitar parts add more vocals and guitar, then maybe pass it back and forth a bit to get the arrangement and mix and stuff right.
Maybe do it Kiss-style with each of us taking lead vocal on our own picks. We could record a Kamikazes cover! I'd buy ten copies at least.
Aye... naw?
Dae it!
You had me at 'Kamikazes cover'.
Is this actually feasible?

Although I was 90% joking when I posted this topic... I think about doing something this every few months or so just to get "Wicked As" recorded in some shape or form. Bugs the shit out of me that we never did it while I was still there.
Answer yer PMs, fucko.
It bugs me too, I was just thinking about it the other day.
Those fucking mind ghosts again...
I have a vauge recollection of the dude out of the Wonderstuff doing something similar for an album.
...To begin the New Dawn you can't live for 'her', 'him', 'me' or I', only Us.
This is how I picture it.

Two minutes onwards.
Doesn't look that expensive. You got a webcam, Stu?
I really want to write and record some songs with someone from the internet without ever meeting them. I fail to see how it wouldn't be possible... We just exchange our ideas using Windows Sound Recorder and plain old writing them down in Microsoft Word documents, then once we've written the music we go to nearby studios and record our respective parts, and finally send them over the internet to each other (LOL SENDING OUR RESPECTIVE PARTS TO EACH OTHER OVER THE INTERNET, FAGZ) and get them all mixed together. POSSIBLY BY YET ANOTHER PERSON WE'VE NEVER MET BEFORE. And there we have it! A bunch of strangers make music together, for some reason. Campestral would go apeshit for this.
The idea of recording music transatlantically is cool as fuck; the fact that you guys have met before and actually wrote the songs in each other's company just makes it a hell of a lot easier. Do it. It's a good PR spin, if nothing else.
Just like how Tomahawk came together.
The Postal Service popularized the concept, but Minus 3 could take it to the next level.
The interval between birth and death is fractal. Any given moment is infinitely deep and rich, and therefore one lifetime is quite enough for me.
Minus could write songs with cucumbers up their arses and writing their own pieces seperately and it would still sound better than anything I've heard this year
Let's cover 'The Aforementioned Rap'.
Haha... "Minus3 Cover Our Favorite Glasgow Bands 2000 - 2004".
Yeah I got a webcam, second request today for me to set one up, the family back home want me to get it going for after the wein is born. I should go dig it up.
Hey check this out, did you guys know that other band called Minus3 split up too? Shame, they were better than us. They were nu-better.
The Aforementioned NEVER done a song called The Aforementioned Rap
