Subject: Artistry 2 Round 1 (Alice Cooper) Enter by 7/9/13

Written By: ThaConqueror on 06/25/13 at 6:30 pm

It's time for Artistry 2: Artistry Harder everybody! And which lucky artist has been chosen (by Matthias' playlist) to be the star of the first round?

Alice Cooper! TBH, I don't know much about this guy, but that's me being not that into metal. Who cares, let's roll!

Youtube search for "Alice Cooper"

Artistry Rules For Newcomers:
- If one wishes to enter (entry in all rounds is not compulsory), entry must be written (or selected from back catalog) within two weeks of the posting of the entry thread
- Voting runs during the same two-week period as the next entry thread, so organise your time wisely
- All participants must comment on all entrants and vote by the deadline.  Failure to vote will forfeit all points from that round, but it won't disqualify you from participating in the next round
- Voting will take place by replying to the appropriate voting thread
- If a person withdraws from an Artistry Round prior to the end of a round, all entrants who voted for that person's entry will be permitted to pick one new song to earn a bonus point, all other songs will be realigned accordingly.  There will be no penalty on those who don't change their vote.
- Once a vote is posted, it cannot be changed UNLESS rule 3 applies OR there was a double-vote by accident.
- Late entries will be accepted until the 1st vote has been posted.
- The deadline is a strict deadline, the moment the date has reached the day after the deadline, no votes will count, this is to reduce last minute voting, or sympathy/favoritism towards different entrants.

I think that covers everything Artistry-specific. Good luck, everyone!

I've chosen my song: "Clones (We're All)". Most likely title is "Phones (We Call)", so stay tuned!

YES! And so it has begun...and it has begun with my favorite artist! This is going to be great (btw TCOP, I love "Clones (We're All)"...can't wait to read your take on it.)
EDIT: I wrote this a couple days ago, and I feel it is a better option than any of the Alice parodies that I have previously written...so I changed my mind.

Honestly, Unlike Conqueror, I know who Alice Cooper is and I'm stoked for this round. I need to decide whether I want to parody "No More Mr. Nice Guy", "Poison", "Welcome To My Nightmare" or one of his many other awesome hits.

In related news check out this link of Alice Cooper on The Muppets!!!

TCOP, could you please paste the standard rules at the first post for those who have possibly just joined us?

What, the rules that usually go in the voting thread? Or did I forget something incredibly important, meaning that I'm a bigger idiot than I usually say I am?

I think that the rules from the voting thread, modified slightly, would be sufficient just this once for those who may be here for the first time. I would do it myself but I am at work right now and The Man may be watching me...  :-X

I think the first rule of Artistry Club is that you TALK ABOUT ARTISTRY CLUB. The second rule is that you MUST TALK ABOUT ARTISTRY CLUB. And the third rule should be that if this is your first time at Artistry Club then you must write a parody!

Nice job on the opening post, TCOP. That is what I was going for. Karma for you.

Abbott pointed out that I had a couple of pacing mishaps in my parody so I'm deleting that one and posting a new one for tomorrow. I want to start Artistry out strong and that means no pacing errors!

Apparently no update today. I submitted Sunday night. I call for an extension as needed for all.

It's the 8th dude. No extension is needed seeing Chucky should probably update the site tomorrow. If he doesn't then the extension should be needed. Right now it's all good.
Plus you really want to call for an extension on the first round? Kinda lame! lol  ;)

Took me forever to come up with this. I was rough because I'm not a big Alice Cooper fan.
