Welcome to Week SEVEN (Eleven) As the name states this week is a conundrum of convenience.
"Whiskey Tango Foxtrot does that mean @Iron1?" - the crowd droned with eyes pre-rolling at the anticipation of another bad dad joke.
In the days of yore, around the time of yesteryear, you know, back in the day - no not that day- pervert. Sheesh... anyway, back in the other day, for those of us who grew up in the mid-Atlantic states, 7-11 was a wonderful place.
Where else could you get a candy bar, Big Gulp, pack of cigarettes and magazines no one under the age of 18 was allowed to buy - all with a note from your mom (usually forged by your friend Billy) giving permission to grab all these things? Along with a 6-pack of beer.
Where am I going with all this and how is it relevant to the DO SOMETHING CHALLENGE you ask? All I know is you could make more music if you spent less time reading my insane ramblings and actually played your guitar/bass/drums/anal kazoo...
Ok, that's enough with the trip down memory lane, which is closed for road construction anyway. Here's what's happening so far:
Regular weekly/bi-weekly challenge:
TJontheRoad - 4
Whizzinby - 4
T Gobbs - 2
Sleezy E - 6
Iron1 - 9
Alex Kenivel - 10!!!!
@FuzzyAce - 3
@Piing - 1
@PLX - 3
@megametal7 - 2
@fretworn - 3
@Moondog Wily - 2
@duzie - 1
BahamaDada - 3
Gearzilla - 1
PLX - 4
@aldunk - 1
@scole - 1
@EveryoneElse - slackers
That's 60 pieces of music that didn't exist prior to this challenge season. Way to go!
The rest of TGF combined:
TGF Do Something Season Two BANDMATE CHAMPION:
@Sleezy E - 1
and
@Gearzilla - 1
Ok, time to get going with Week Seven (Eleven) - and maybe grab a Slurpee while you're at it.
Congrats to those who have participated already!
For all the rules, reasons why 7-11 Nachos are not a good source of nutrition even if you are homeless and starving, why you should really give all your gear to Do Something Challenge participants if you yourself are not going to Do Something, why the local police are still looking for me and my underage drinking buddies who never, ever sat behind a 7-11 downing Budweiser and then smashing the bottles against the wall every Friday night in the summer of 1985, why @Alex Kenivel believes with all his heart that all a musician ever needs is a 7-11 burrito to make "magical fruit music" and more, please refer to the Week One thread.

This picture really captions itself, doesn't it?
