Are you ready to rock? Are you ready for a good time? Let's make some noise!!!
Today marks not an end to the FNGT, but marks a new chapter. There may be laughter and joy, or there may be tears and sorrow. For some, it could be both - and that's okay.
Let us huddle around the final embers that was the fire of Voat - but let us not go out silently. Let us leave this place with ruckus and merriment. Let us not just make enough noise to be heard 'round the fire, but let us make enough noise to be heard for miles around - so that others may appreciate our gifts.
Today it is the last guitar thread on Voat. If Voat goes down during the thread, look for us on Preview Voat
Like a Phoenix, we shall rise from the ashes and be enjoined anew on Poal.

Like normal, we'll go ahead and get you started! Ho ho ho! Merry Christmas!
You've waited a year for this. More than 300 hours. 189 stubs. As many as 6 guitar layers and 3 drum layers at a time. This is perhaps the most complex piece we've put together. We hope it was worth the wait!
We started planning last January and started putting this together in August. The 300 hours only includes recording and mixing time. It doesn't include the hundreds of hours we spent learning and rehearsing the work. To try to enumerate who played what with our usual notation would make a URL that exceeded the max 255 characters. So, it's from the usual suspects and some guests.
And, it's a fitting tribute to be the last Christmas guitar track we made for Voat. Without further ado…

As you listen, think back to the lovely times we've had and look forward to the lovely times we'll still have. Do not lament the passing of Voat, but rejoice in the moving to a new home. I have long since prepared a place for us there and this thread shall continue.
For the record, I am well pleased by this track. Well pleased indeed. Also, I want to add that it is with deliberate purpose that this song is as it is - it rewards those that wait. So, wait for it... The silence exists for a reason.
Rock on, goats! Rock on!

Thank you! I got signed up and saved the pol link. Can't believe it's been a year since I last heard your music! Taught me something, don't wait so long after disagreements to make amends. It's at least bad for my musical education! lol
The music you guys produce really is a gift. You guys take me on journeys! Thanks so much for the invite.
An entire year of music awaits me while I try to arrive on the New and let go of the Voat... damn hard, feels like I'm getting a divorce for crap sakes. Memories will have to hold me cause I will never forget this place. Santa is still an option but I doubt we will see the results today... Merry Christmas, my friend. We rocked the free speech! Without ever talking about politics! One hour left... be safe, be happy, be a goat and never give up. I'll be around to tell you how talented you are... mutual admiration society.

You know how to find me. My email is also [email protected] and that's checked fairly regularly.
We'll be taking the guitar thread to Poal, where we already have a place waiting and ready.
