  • How to Create the Perfect BTLS Approved Local Band Song

    Nice look to the new forum first of all, and thanks for building this spot for all things BTLS. For any aspiring musicians out there who have been paying attention, it might make sense for us to pool our thoughts here to identify the elements necessary to get your band approved.

    I'll start with the first and most obvious-The Hook. Even though its not included in any music school curriculum, any song submitted must have a hook to even stand a chance. Once you get past the fact that Bubba can't play a single note himself-yet is an expert on music (and we don't tell him how to do a radio show), we can begin to avoid some of the violations which have doomed other acts. If this idea has been brought up in another forum, please move it. I have the feeling that I'm not the only one thinking of this.

    No intro-violations.
    No making Bubba hit the dump button.
    Mix it properly.
    The real key is to impress in the first 5 seconds.
    etc. etc. etc.

      No song should be over 54 seconds in length. Bubba's total attention span

        Good ones Fish and SJ, I'd also add: Noodling on guitar violations. This thread can also apply to top 5 countdown.

          Noodling is a huge violation.

          Long Intro's are out.

          Also make your lyrics clear cause Bubba's hearing ain't what it used to be.

          Saxophones are a HUGE plus.

            Fixed. For accuracy.

              Easy band name. Example:

              Rain
              Steel warrior
              Stone hero

              No go:

              troglodyte frenzy
              floccinaucinihilipilification war...
