@Agent Joe: It tends to do that at times (allthough I haven't had it for that long, so maybe it's just me being incompetent about it).
Just for the record, I used some static "Aah"'s and "Ooh"'s in my track
@Benjamin: Nah, sorry. Had a "music" teacher who taught me "music" for a few years (need I say, replace "music" with "jazz").
Man, one event in spectacular almost drove me out of my boots; there was a free-entrance jazz concert going on not to far from the musical (jazz) education hall. Our jazzfreak foir teacher decided that instead of having our standard music (jazz) theory class, the class should attend that event instead.
So, for about three hours, I listened to a "small" big band (I think it were only eight or so people) harass their instruments in what was apparently nothing but constant improvisation (what I meant to say was, it was all the same song... seemingly at least; you couldn't really tell since nothing was ever heard twice).
Also, I could add that the guys playing looked so hilariously satisfied the whole time...
Well, after finally escaping the concert (oh no, it didn't nearly end after just three hours) I had got enough jazz until today
(And yes, I still had to go through two and a half more years with that jazzy cat's jazz theory classes.
@Gargoyle: Whoa, I sense that you're actually quite pissed by your last sentences?
Well, allthough I may actually not be known as the best at keeping deadlines (most of the time I get done in time, but just barely after doing most of the work in the last few days), but seriously, how could I have anticipated this?
The demise hadn't even happened (and frankly, wasn't expected either) when the contest began, so I had no idea to predict this.
Sure, I could perhaps have gotten it done a week before the ending time, but as I just explained, I tend to get things done in the last moment. Moreover, my way of writing music is by inspiration, a thing you can hardly force, so I doubt I could have gotten very far with the track, even should I have brought "work" down there.
I guess I'll conclude my explanation there...
On the matter of riding with things, I'm quite used to that as well. For instance, I've been riding my trusty Zündapp back in the days with a complete set of a table and four chairs tied to the gas tank (and myself) as well as driving a few miles with a 6 foot long mortar (the fireworks kind, not a weapon)
This time, however, I travelled with my mother and grandmother (no, not the norweigan guy) in a quite small car. We also needed room to bring some stuff back home, so even shouldn't the earlier reasons have applied, I wouldn't have been able to.
And as you said,
Quote: "...wanted the contest leader stating his opinion."
Apparently, he decided to postpone the deadline. If he wouldn't had, I would of course have accepted that (as I think I said in my earlier post).
Maybe it's me who sounds pissed this time *laughs*
I just thought that I should explain this in better detail though, since I didn't like (my imagination of) your tone at the "when I get a deadline, I intend to meet it" part.
Anyways, no hard feelings and my track is already done, so everything should be fine
