i can't believe you guys didn't mention the undercard match where a Hippo took on (and subsequently squeaked by) a dim-witted grimpoteuthis in a game of chess.....

:)

well done

Love Cthulhu? you bet!

He was at my wedding!

I am the one that sounds like Kermit...Erich is a professional speaker, I am just an illustrator...
WK, boy, did we miss that one. Next time?

Dear Fellow Tonmoers,

I must humbly beseech you to forgive me for what I have spawned. Groan, what have I unleashed upon the earth? :goofysca: If I but knew how to make amends!

That was a really fun cast to listen to. I had it going in my office when a co-worked popped in and gave me the craziest look.

War of the Worlds meets Cthulhu. Wells and Lovecraft would be so proud.

I was so proud of greg's delivery when he came to "mud mounds".

LOL...I'm sure they would have grinned. Doing it all at once (sound effects were added later by Rebecca) was fun...sort of a nod to the early 30's radio shows, although the constant change of vocal tone was difficult. Erich's "Colton Upton-Moore" had to be seen to be believed !

Such eldritch whimsy!

If you want to hear more music from my band, there are free listens of "Yog-Sothoth", "20 Minutes of Oxygen" (a good one to start with), and "KABLAM!" at http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=9166598

and you can hear "The Math Song" (one of our most popular) and "Dies ist Unverschamtheit" here http://www.newmusiccanada.com/genres/artist.cfm?Band_Id=5820

As an added bonus, here's a link to the Real Ghostbuster episode, The Collect Call of Cathulhu:

enjoy!

Keep up the good work, T!

Boy. And people don't remember that good old animation. Yikes. And I am not too comfortable having my diety come off like some giant clumsy oaf banging around with dirty toenails !

Maybe I can talk the lads into letting you have an exclusive premiere of "A Marine Biologist" (when it gets recorded later this year).

Well, not exactly a episode related question:

Tony, what program do you use the record and edit these recordings?

tonmo
Sep 17th, 2006, 11:56am
Audacity (http://audacity.sourceforge.net/). It's open source / freeware!
