Record your own acoustic set for the internet!

[Cherax]

A brief history: last month, I made a video of myself playing some pony songs, both covers and originals, acoustically in my backyard. It was super fun! This month, Le Soldat Pony made a video of himself playing some pony songs, both covers and originals, in front of some books. It's awesome!, and it got me thinking: just how many people can I persuade to hop on board with this potential trend? So, a call to arms was put out, which I am here extending to the fine people of MLR.

There are no rules, and there is no deadline. Just record yourself playing some pony songs, be they your own, or covers of ones you really like, on any instrument you like, and upload it to Youtube. That's all! I'll try to organise any / all of them in a playlist, so please message me here or on YT if you do this.

Have fun~! ヽ(*・ω・)ﾉ♪

Can I use a Rhodes? It sounds earthy.

[S.P.P]

Sounds fun! Might take a half hour out of my day to do this some time. :3

[Jokeblue]

Brilliant! I can do this! I will do this :3

It's not quite pony, but would covering Tarby's "Burnout" count?

Can and absolutely should, baby.

Well now I'm gonna have to finish learning Rainbow Factory...

[Jokeblue]

I'm gonna have to see if I can actually pull off this thing you humans call 'singing'...

Summer on trumpet, here we go.

My acoustic broke a while ago :<

[Jokeblue]

I just restrung my acoustics the other day, they sound terrific! I may be able to do an acoustic cover of The Most Talented Flyers now :3

[AyaneFukumi]

I'll keep this in mind :3

Would vocal samples be okay?

Well, it's supposed to be an acoustic performance - but I'm kinda intrigued to see what you had in mind...

Do drumcovers count?
Like haveing the orginal track in the backbround + drumming?
I've been waiting for an excuse to try one of those

Dood do one anyway

Would a 30 mim set be too much? I'm worried about the awkwardness between songs.

Haha, not quite. While that is a performance, I'm looking for the kind that you might see a front(wo)man do at an acoustic solo show. You can imagine how drum covers wouldn't make much sense in that context. (But hey, if you've been meaning to do one, you should still do one on your own time!)

Soldat and I both had a lot of awkwardness between songs, but that's half the fun! Do as much as you'd like - maybe five hours would be pushing it, but 30m would be fine.
