Goddamn maths again!

Thanks for that Rostasi. As I recall, the songs were submitted as below:

Dog song by Black Heart Procession was from bob
When the raven calls by Jex Thoth was from Carpe I think
Don't go by Hothouse Flowers was from me
Pets eat their masters by Jello Biafra was from Rostasi
Too many puppies by Primus was from Plankton
Lullaby of Birdland by Ella Fitzgerald was from Devious

which leaves just
Wayne's pet youngin' by Ween
and
Knuckles the dog who helps people by Killdozer

to be claimed. I'm sorry but my inbox is 94% full and I had to delete all PMs so I don't know who submitted these. Let me know and I'll add yez.

On another note, no, seven (eight including mine) is not great, not when you consider how hard I had to push to get those tracks. Some submitted songs right away, I don't deny that. But seven out of everyone here, especially considering I offered to drop the theme, and we still only got seven? I don't consider that a good response. Not for all the work that ends up being put into this.

You all know I'm mad busy. My own choice of course. But unless this picks up in popularity I would not be prepared to keep doing it. It's easy to say "oh go on", but I didn't see anyone else taking this on. I've tried and got what I consider a very weak response, though again thanks to those who did respond. But considering how many asked why had the mixtape stopped, and seemed to be interested, the response was pretty minimal in my view.

As I say, perhaps when people download the tape and begin commenting more people might get the interest to actually contribute next time (if there is a next time) but if not I'm not going to cry myself to sleep about it. I've more to do than to try to resurrect something that the majority of you seem happy to leave dead.

Anyway, that's my rant. Listen to the tape and see what you think. You all know the drill. Depending on the amount of/lack of comments and the general interest or lack of, I'll make my decision as to whether or not I want to bother doing this again.

One more time: thanks to those who contributed. Hope you all enjoy.
