I thought it would be relatively cool to start a show that was like an American idol/X factor type of show called All Around The World where our board members could create up and coming stars who could compete at each show (doesn't matter what genre) and we could also vote on what up and comers we want to stay all the way to we get to the end and a winner will be announced and they will receive a recording contract. It kind of gives the star a backstory and some exposure so chances of charting higher are easily seen. Before I get into more details - do you guys think this is a good idea, or no? And any questions I'll take now. After that's done hopefully I could give out the sign up form and some could help me with the process of this whole thing and we could make it fun. So....what do you people think? Hopefully we can get up to or more then 10 signees and us people on the board can sign up with up to 2 superstars on the show.

OOC: Yeah, this would be a really fun thing to do. If you're actually going to do this, I'd love to be a part of it.
Kid Anything- Indie/Britpop/Shoegaze; influenced by Sigur Ros, XXYYXX, Kanye West, Blur, Oasis

(Bringing together an eclectic group of influences, Ulysses' songs are sung with carefree abandon by Nick Junk)

Nick Junk - Vocals, Mojo



Infinite- Alternative/Experimental Rock; influenced by Muse, Radiohead, and The Beatles

(Known best for their experimental music and their frontman's eccentric behavior, the band disbanded after Eric Quillington's death to pursue solo careers or, in Matt Robert's case, peace of mind. Infinite released four albums over the course of their career; Blue Nebula, Midnight Skies, Insomnia, and Dancing about Architecture.)

Eric Quillington (Deceased) - Lead Vocals, Lead Guitar, Piano, Primary Lyricist
Matt Roberts - Bass

"When asked 'how do you write?' I invariably answer, 'one word at a time', and this answer is invariably dismissed. But that's all it is. It sounds too simple to be true, but consider the Great Wall of China, if you will: one stone at a time, man. That's all. One stone at a time. But I've read you can see that motherfucker from space without a telescope."

- Stephen King

OOC: I agree with Daniel but it's better to at least try it and it seems like this Malory person has a solid idea of how to do this and get things going. I'll help out anyway I can, Not sure what help I'll be but just PM me if you need help.

OOC: If this gets off the ground, I'll for sure support it, but, as is being made clear from some of the more senior members, these kind of things rarely work, usually because people (not only the creator, but the contestants too) fail to really commit to the show/event/etc. As I said, if this seems to shape up into something strong, I'll be behind supporting it 100%.

OOC: I agree. It's kind of like Animal Fest in my opinion; it had some great ideas behind it, and alot of terrific people were involved with it. But, when it came to the actual day, only a couple of people posted. (I'm guilty for it, too, I'm not trying to sound all high and mighty.) I really hope people actually get involved with it, because I kind of have rough ideas for the person I'd use for it.

I and whoever is up to help will try our best to make this work out. If not, its a failed attempt but it'll still be good to try it out! I'll be doing the rules and the apps right now and anything else.
