I've been kicking around some of these ideas for a couple of years. Finally decided to see if anyone else would be interested in such an exercise because, well, I'm bored.

I'm just going to throw out a mish mash of ideas and get some feedback and suggestions and we'll go from there..

So...it would be a song draft. Ideally, I would like to see a combination of some of these ideas and categories:

1. Participants vote on a set number of prolific artists to have as categories. For example The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin end up being 3 of the categories (I'd actually like to see 10 or more). Each participant drafts a favorite from their catalog.

2. Songs for specific genres...not sure how detailed we could get with the categories...rock, country, rap, r & b, metal etc. This part could really use some ideas to further it.

3. Live performance, lyrics only (favorite song lyrically), instrumental (?), wildcards, covers etc are all additional category possibilities.

I feel like I had more ideas but I'm drawing a blank. If I think of them I will edit the post.

So...who's interested and who has some spiffy ideas to throw in the pot? Feel free to share in this thread or PM me!
