For Theme Thusdays

[GORT]

Mossy suggested I should have a thread posted for MOONies to lookup the curently running themes on Thursday. So here it is, hope this is a convenience for you all.
This is all new to me (my first thread)

so it looks like today 8/3/06 we shall do songs that are 2m30s or shorter
we need as many moonies to place reqs as possible so we don't get fillers from SAM

[MrMagoo]

Virgin no more!

Is this also where we could/should suggest themes? Us left coasters appreciate a chance along with all the peeplz to the right.

When you in the US still sleep, we in Europe will define the Theme...

[mossy]

Or while the Europeans are sleeping, the US people could decide the theme for the next day

How about a 3 for Thursdays, where we play a request and then two more of the same artist?

....................arrrrrrrrggggggggg !!!!!!, What lotus fears, I must agree.

Here would be a great Place to post the Theme and Date. With the Shoutbox now only going Back from time of sign on, We can no longer see the early Morning Shouts. I love the interaction from Moonies that this brings.

..so whats next Thursday??????????

I like the font page idea

Someone suggested on Thursday that we have a "no song over 2:30" theme for a day. I thought that was a great idea since there are several short songs I have never heard on the Moon that fall in that category.

vax/kw.... I feel like I've stepped into an ad campaign for cadbury's.

Yay! Someone remembered one of my theme idea!

[sharcnorris]

Well this worked fine, The theme for 8/3 appears to be:

Mythical Nuts and Fruits that Last less then 2:30.....Wheres Paul Lynn when you need him

[Beowulfs_Kin]

Today is 8/3 -- how about nuts and fruits, mythical or not, for today's theme?

Next Thursday, no song over 2:30.

That sounds like a couple of interesting weeks to me.

[MrMagoo]

Theme suggestion for this Thu 8/3: mythical locations - Avalon, The Shire, Valhalla, etc - and Ditch 9 of Dante's 8th Circle for the fruit & nut crew.

ok the theme for 8/3/06 is songs under 2m30s

10 random theme ideas off the top of my head:

1) songs over 2:30 ;-)
2) interesting percussion
3) good vocals
4) instrumentals
5) songs with AT LEAST one non-standard rock instrument (guitar, bass, drums, keyboard)
6) math/science
7) colors
8) animals
9) transportation (car, boat, running, flying, etc)
10) earth, air, fire, and/or water

Ok

1. Songs over 30:00
2. Starts with Q, X, or Z
3. Guest stars (when one famous musician guests, such as Jon on "Lizard," Fripp on "Bird of Heaven," or Hodgeson on "Walls")
4. Titles ten words or longer
5. Title tracks only
6. Album openers only
7. Album closers only
8. Songs of specific length (such as 9:00 songs - songs between 9:00 and 9:59)
9. Songs with dramatic time shifts, or with two or more time signatures (such as "Sound Chaser," "Magnum Opus," "Money," or [gag]"Supper's Ready")
10. Song with "people" names (such as "Harold Land," "Mr. Wilson," "Matthew - The Man," or "Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast")
