| DSOTM Challenge Hello Guys, Gals, and Wheelbarrows, As most of you know, I am up to challenges (or am challenged, as some might say) like a dog is up to juniper trees. So the other day I got to thinking. "Man, Fletch, you have listened to Dark Side of the Moon so many times. If you sat down in a dark room by yourself, I wonder if you could sing all the lyrics, hum the melodies, whistle all of the guitar solos, and do most of the background talking outloud by memory?" SO I sat down and did just that. Knowing full well that the run time of DSOTM is 42min 52sec, I also grabbed a stop watch. I started the stop watch and began to beat my chest with a flat right hand. The idea was to see how close to 42min and 52 sec I could get just by memory. Well I am very pleased to say that my ending time was 42min 50sec.......2 seconds short. I challenge anyone to do the same. Anyone who can come within 2 seconds of the run time will recieve a free ride in my beautiful red balloon. I enjoy myself. ~Fletch, COS~

| Re: DSOTM Challenge well that was a bit hard and I got interrupted a few times (and had to start again). I got 42mins 12secs...I guess I sang a bit too fast somewhere...but I think I did great anyway. now we have to do this with all the other Floyd albums (and become insane that's it)

| Re: DSOTM Challenge hum I guess I cheated a bit then. I didn't sing the whole album out loud (would've gotten some weird looks for there were people in my house) I just sang it in my head, I could never do great gig myself...does that still count?

| Re: DSOTM Challenge As much as I envy Phileas Fogg I really don't think I would have the patience or concentration to do this challenge. I would like to see you do it to Ummagumma though!

| Re: DSOTM Challenge 42mins 52secs Exactly.... I am the champion... you should put the album on in the background it makes it much easier....

That's not really what we call 'challenge' so much as 'singing along.' Even Ashlee Simpson could do that.
