[edit] Previewing Edits

Hey there Mr.klaw. Just wanted to let you know that you can use the "show preview" button when making changes to your page, before you save it. That will help cut down on the number of edits, which we have to patrol.

Thanks! --Duke33 14:48, 2 August 2006 (UTC)



Woah, you live at Bowdoin? I have a friend from Massachusetts going there, though she's studying in INDIA right now. That's crazy. -Ecks


How'd you manage to get on college radio? Are you attending the college?

--Desck (P.S. I also play accordion. Rock on!)

[edit] Space Suit

Thanks a lot, I'm glad you like it ^_^ And yes, I'll send you the notes and chords for Space Suit. I just hope you can read sheet music :P -Spiraling Shape

Here you go. (It sucks, I know, I'm sorry T_T) This is only the notes, I didn't bother to try and figure out the rhythm (too hard for me to put it on paper). Just play along with the song. Also, the arrangement on the album is different (the accordion doesn't play that little riff along with the guitar, etc.), this is just what I play. It goes: [A]x2, [B], [A]x2, [B], [A]x2, [C], and hold out the last chord. ([A] = everything until [B].) Again, just play along with the song until you get it. Hope this helps :D -Spiraling Shape

Hi Mick. I should be able to do the "Hotel Dective In The Future" commentary thing. Dan

[edit] Space Suit chords

I'm not completely sure about most of these, but since you requested, here you go. If I'm able to verify most of them, I'll put them on the Accordionists Unite page.

The first few bars are A, and when the guitar starts changing things up, it goes to G and switches around a bit with G5 (D). Return to A, then another G/D.

When the accordion comes in. A, G, F#m, A4 (D), A, G, C, Bb, B.

That's the best I can do. Repeat that, then play A A A A A A B B B B B B C C C C C C A

That looks confusing, but it's hard to write out in not-sheet-music - especially since it's an instrumental song so you've got no reference points. Anyway, as long as you know where the chords change, this should help you.

- J2

Note: Just found out that the A chord at the beginning sounds better if you add a B (the note) to it.

wait, crap, just noticed someone else made sheet music.

[edit] Two things

Hello, there. Just a few pointers- 1) What Duke wrote above about previewing edits before saving them still applies, you made quite a few (eight) edits in a row to Talk:Trivia today, and, 2) to insert a signature after your messages you only have to click the button_sig.png button above or type --~~~~. It writes out everything (including the time and date) for you. -CapitalQ / @ / 23:38, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

Don't apologize for editing, we happily welcome all beneficial contributions. Just try to use the Preview button a bit more in the future. -CapitalQ / @ / 00:40, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hey Mick

I'm at school right now in J1, my dad can probably hook you up with a good kind of keyboard, he'll just need to know your price range. Later Dan Go NY Yankees!!!

[edit] Hey MR. Mick Klaw

[edit] TMBG Photos

Any reason you have the same photo uploaded three times in different sizes? You can change how large an image is on a page without having to upload different sized versions (use [[Image:Filename.jpg|XXXpx]], where XXX is the amount of pixels wide you want the image to be). Would it be okay with you for me to delete "Small" and "Smaller" and leave the one on your user page? -CapitalQ / @ / 01:10, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

The man in the They Might Be Dead shirt was actually TDK, I sat two seats to the right of him and was wearing a Beatles hoodie with the TMBG Songs shirt underneath. -CapitalQ / @ / 02:20, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Mesopotamians

woo hoo, mythology! do you really remember these lyrics from yesterday evening? - Whirrrlwind (Woosh!) 17:21, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Aww, no. I haven't been there. I'm envying everyone who was. I'm still hoping for the first Vienna show since 1994. Just asking. - Whirrrlwind (Woosh!) 22:03, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

I didn't mean to imply I was there. I'm just admiring your memory skills :D. Just forgot a word. My first message has now been modified to imply what I wanted to say. - Whirrrlwind (Woosh!) 16:15, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The Else

It's really good. Yeah, it really is. Listen to it. Now! --Dan 20:09, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Good day

Full period passes are no longer allowed unless one has REAL work to do. Lame. Lame. Lame.

[edit] Ack!

A physical, non-advance copy? How the hell did you manage that? Any bonus goodies? :D -CapitalQ / @ / 01:16, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

I forgot for a second that you have that WBOR show. ;) -CapitalQ / @ / 01:18, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

Which album art is top-notch? If you mean the front cover, we have that already in 1400px+. Is there other, exclusive art in the promo? Disc art, maybe? We'd definitely appreciate any new art, especially if it's scanned well. :) -CapitalQ / @ / 19:10, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
Can you check the lyrics booklet against TMBW's lyrics, and make corrections where necessary? Specifically Bee Of The Bird Of The Moth and Feign Amnesia. -CapitalQ / @ / 19:46, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

Did that come with the bonus disc? Jade

[edit] Hey, what's up?

Ha, you're the square root of a negitive number years old? Isn't that i? :-)

Whoo! Another accordionist! It seems that there are an abundance of us at TMBW.

Wait... where did you get a copy of The Else? -Gannabel

Ah, ok. I get it. But you don't have the bonus disk, right?
Ah, I see. Personaly, I'm a little scared that I won't get the bonus disk for whatever reason. I preordered The Else from Amazon, and it said there was only one disk, but the description also said that it came with a bonus disk. -Gannabel

[edit] Klaw

Welcome to the Jungle, Mick.

[edit] hey

Gleason continues to impress. He's deserving of a facebook group, I think. --Dan 14:51, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
