New contest submissions.
Just added 2 audio covers and our first story from the tour.
Thanks to Phil, Jameson & Jake.
Just a few more days to get those submissions in before we start the voting. Phil’s story submission has got him in a pretty good position to grab some free music. Anyone else want to chime in?
Also a big thanks to Jameson for sending over a version of ‘Home‘ from ultimate-guitar. We’ll post it for now and see if we get any other submissions in the near future.

Howdy! Name’s Shane, though everyone calls me Melvin
This past summer, I hitchiked with my 12-string guitar, playin guitar the whole way ^_^.
From Saint John New Brunswick along the coast to Bath Maine, where i stayed at mom’s for a few days, then continued to new york city! When I got there I met up with my friend
Chris(tina) Doka. Whom I had spent the previous new years with (just as friends).
So we did the usual rock band-ing and hanging around her home, bugging her brother and going out on the town a bit. We went to serendipity (some famous restaraunt as im told) and the museum of natural history, then took 2 days and went to washington! Anyway, while in New York we went to Coney Island for the Siren Festival (08′) and thats where I saw The Annuals live for the first time ( http://www.myspace.com/annuals ) and sorta fell in love with thier music. It was kinda just what I needed, I felt completly able to connect with thier songs and lyrics.
Like you really would have had to have been there, the energy was beyond electrifying, and not just from the crowd, like the players were ALL incredible….it felt like a whole bunch of ozzy ozbournes with instrumental TALENT were up there! I couldn’t believe it! And it was too awesome =)
After that I spent another couple days there and got on a bus back to mom’s in Bath Maine. And after staying there about a week I started on my way home. So I came North-West, towards ontario…Crossed the boarder and got to Niagra Falls, and visited my cousin and headed back home to Port Elgin.
This story isn’t as good without the sappy love thing thats gonna inspire me with songs and whatnot…so here goes…
I’v known Chris for 6 years, we’v met twice but talk on msn regularly. We met on a video-game (it was like a 1 in a 128573198 chance that we met >..<… Have a good day and thanks for reading
