eric...audio request idea... - Guitars101

hey eric...i thought up this idea...an "audio" request line...

good idea/bad idea?...

think about it...wouldn't it be neat to hear someone's lyrics read aloud by the author?...

...or listening to some of the cool foreign accents (mine included...eh) request a backing track...

...or perhaps hear a newby introduce themselves to the 10,000 plus members...

i don't know how it would affect your bandwidth or server space or any of that other internet stuff that i don't understand...

here's a sample of an audio request...let me know what you think - paul

Funny...I was thinking of an audio of people's different accents the other day...thought they could just post a hello in their sig as a low quality mp3. We're both genius'...we'll wait for the rest of the world to catch up! :LOL:

...exactly...wouldn't that be cool hearing an exotic accent...like someone from jersey (um...that's a joke....eh)...
....or...like...some...like....dude...from....like ...southern...like...california...

....i'm kinda partial to the southern drawl of texas and florida and the uk...

...i've noticed that there are members from all over the world...singapore...australia...finland...the united kingdom...this site is truly a global community...it's awesome...i love it...

...i wonder how difficult it must be for the members who don't speak english to enjoy the site...me....personally...i couldn't even imagine trying to read postings in another language and trying to translate everything into my native tongue...but i guess guitars and music are a universal language...

There's enough regional accents in the UK to last you a lifetime Jimi!!!! You'd need a translator for some of us!
