Already finished it, less than a minute after you guys posted the link. I won't spoil the surprise as to what I'm performing, but I will tell you all this: if I win, I have something even bigger planned for performance at the masquerade.

I'll give you a very very vague hint: How many of you remember a little-known British band from the '80s with the initials E.L.O.?

Submitted! I have a quick question about check in/start times: in the rules, I read that check-in is from 2-5:30pm and prelims start at 6pm, however, on the confirmation page I got when I signed up just now, it said that check in is from 3-6:30pm. Which one is accurate? Thank you!

I didn't know what the "check only if karaoke version" boxes were for, so I assumed that they meant that the song you had already had no vocals and, therefore, did not need any vocals removed. Could someone correct me if I'm wrong?

This one event is the main highlight of my entire YEAR. I cannot tell you how many hours every day I spend practicing for this...though for some reason it annoys my mom/landlord to no end. (Yeah I'm 27 and still live at home, its VERY VERY COMPLICATED, so please don't ask lol)

If you just have fun with it, it's a lot easier to avoid stage fright.  That's what I have learned from choir. :D

Post by: princesskitty18 on May 03, 2011, 10:38:41 PM
this is wat i think
when the list is posted of who is in the contest, we should all kinda sound off on our real names
and meet up in person for the contest and cheer for each other!
moral support!!
because i kno for a fact that none of my friends are goin friday night so ill need all the support i can get :D

They wouldn't let me pre-record before hand.  I was so frustrated.  I understand their reasoning, but I love that song and I was like.  I FINALLY CAN SING IT WITH ENOUGH POWER THANK YOU CHOIR.

Also, I was afraid my dress-rehearsal would run too long and I'd miss sign ups. :b

Well, they say practice makes perfect. I practice obsessively (mostly in the shower). XD I annoy everyone around me because, according to them, I never stop singing.

I've just gotten lucky because my neighbors like my singing AND the walls are thick in some rooms.  :b  Otherwise I'd be in deep poop, because most people in apartments don't get to sing as much and as loudly as I do without having a problem. XD

Maybe I can get some tips from you guys whenever we meet up. And lol, I think I've annoyed my parents for the past 10 years to the point where they don't care if I sing in public or not anymore xD.

That's true.  Most anime songs are sung by tenors with very large ranges.  It makes things tough if you're a baritone or a bass.

i agree, this is why i had inquired about the pitch change issue. However, i didn't want to take chances so my final choices were male.

It's also hard for sopranos, because even most female songs have some sort of low part. For a while, I considered singing Last night, Good night because of the high part, but I decided it was a bit too slow.

@Kzuna: I wondered the same.  There are a few songs that if they were just a smidge lower or higher would be right in my ideal range for singing.

Submitted! I have a quick question about check in/start times: in the rules, I read that check-in is from 2-5:30pm and prelims start at 6pm, however, on the confirmation page I got when I signed up just now, it said that check in is from 3-6:30pm. Which one is accurate? Thank you!

It is 2pm to 5:30PM. The confirmation page has now been corrected.

I just got back from work!
I submitted my form in already *crosses fingers* I hope I get in.

I chickened out last year ;__;

I'm also totally down with meeting people because I have no EXP in singing in front of a live audience, and all the training I've done is karaoke! XD
Given I get in of course, I hope I get in!

@GaleWolf, thanks for dealing with us! ^_^;; And answering all our questions!

Okay, right now there are about 5 spots remaining.

Two more entries have been rejected. One for no name (singer from San Jose), one for no songs listed (singer from Mountain View).

I'm going to be away from a computer for most of tomorrow and Thursday, so unless the 5 spots are claimed early in the morning, the signup page will stay up through at least Thursday night, even if all 40 spots are filled before then.

Oh and during the check in time period you will have a chance to practice on stage. Hopefully this is of help to the first timers.

And finally, thanks for all the thanks. Good luck everyone and may you all sing your hearts out!

/sigh. I totally didn't know sign ups opened 10pm last night. Between work I kept checking the forums for updates too. T^T

I didn't get to sign up till 8am this morning /cry. I hope there's still a spot left. I was even late to work signing up for it lol. If I got a spot it will totally be worth it though lol. X3

EDIT: SO THAT'S why I didn't know when the sign up times were. I was consistently checking the original "Karaoke Contest Rules" & "Karaoke Contest Sign up Times & Reminders" thread. Those were never updated with the new sign up info. I didn't know ANOTHER new and separate thread was created with the revised sign up time so I missed it. Damn my common sense and logic. I never thought to check for a new thread being created for it AGAIN since there were already 2 threads, it didn't make sense to me that there would be another one. grrrr. My bad. =_=

Signups are now closed.

As I mentioned before, only the first valid 40 entries are assured of a spot in the contest. There were well over 40. We'll sort this out and post the list of confirmed singers by Monday.

Post by: princesskitty18 on May 08, 2011, 08:58:42 PM
hey everyone!!
i posted a thing about everyone gettin together before the contest
so heres some more info about it

since sign ups are between 2-5:30
lets say meet around 5:30 in front of the karaoke room
that way it gives everyone time to check in and rehearse and practice and watnot

if we're gonna post on here who we all are and our real names
then there we can all meet up, say hi, give each other good luck hugs and words of well-wishing
if u wanna make sure that ppl remember u, wear one of those name tags that say "Hi. My name is _____" hahaha
that seems so elementary school-ish
then we all sit together when we go up
way for companionship? i think so :D

yay? nay?
i really want to meet fellow karaoke-ers who have done this and even the newbies!
new ppl are always fun :)

let me kno wat everyone thinks plz :)
i really wanna meet ppl since im gonna be by myself that night :(

Do we post our real names here?

Also since I will bring my camera (cause its fanime!) would people mind if we also took like a
Group Picture?

I'd also like to meet new people cause this is my first time (if I get in) at doing karaoke.

EDIT: also what do people normally wear? Is it ok to be casual like? Or dress like you are going on an interview for a job?

I will go by my nickname is Connie, but I accidently put on the fanime karaoke Rayna, is that still changeable?
So everyone please call me Connie.

I will not be cosplaying, I will dress comfortably, thats for sure and I will at least look decent and presentable.
I was just planning to dress as if I was going to school. Because I get really nervous wearing even semi-formal stuff.
I sweat bullets -___-;;;;

I'll probably go by my nickname, which is Eiri ^^", and I'm most likely going to be cosplaying as a " live action " version of Shuichi Shindo from Gravitation that day :3. As for meeting around 5:30, it sounds like a plan to me and I think doing a group picture for all the participants would be fun ^___^ <3 always nice to make new friends >w<

mr.jun..u are seriously like a week late to sign ups or something
if u really wanted to sign up u would have read the rules and slightly paid attention
the only way for u to participate in the contest now is if u sign up at con and im not sure how many spots are left available for at-con sign-ups

I did, but then again I guess I have no excuse! It did say that I had until the 15th and the sign ups will close...
Geez the spots fill up faster than expected!  :(
I am not sure the reason for using such harsh tones, but I guess you are tired of getting cases like mine every year...  :)

i apologize for my tone and my words
im nto tryin to scare you away from participating, its always fun to have newcomers
but it seemed like u didnt read the rules thoroughly or didnt understand them before u started to post comments and questions
i was slightly aggravated cuz the rules are pretty clear and straight forward and it seemed like u didnt understand

the rules for sign up was until the 15th or when the list is full
and the list became full within a day or two of when sign-ups started
a lot of ppl are always interested in the contest and the contest always fills up almost right away
like i said, galewolf usually saves about 5-10 spots for at-con sign-ups
u can try ur luck at signing up then
read the rules for when the sign-ups begin

Thanks! I already decided my two songs along time ago! One from Bakuman and the other from Romeo X Juliet!
If I can't get a spot, at least I get to support one of my friends that are participating!  ;D

Sure why not?
Although looking at the roster I am surprised that Yumiko Mori is not going to be participating this year! Her rendition of that "Princess Mononoke" song should be enough make her join again!
Sigh~ J. Luc! Y. Mori! Next time, (maybe I can use this line for one of my manga ideas) Let's duel next time with our voices at its potential! *points epicly with the microphone*

We will take signups at con, but keep in mind there will already be names on the waiting list in front of you.

As for dueling, we do run an event at AX called the "Ultimate Karaoke Fighting Championship". It's all one-on-one, all duels, all deathmatches. Mabye we'll bring it to FanimeCon in a future year...

Question question!
For the first song, since we are limited to 2:30, can we edit the karaoke version of the song with some kind of audio program, like Adobe Soundbooth, and cut parts of the song out so that it ends before 2:30? I'm asking this because my song would fade out in the middle of a fast verse, and that's super embarrassing if that happens, not to mention horrible sounding. So I'm just wondering if I can prematurely end the song? Thanks!

i think someone asked a similar question and the answer was it's ok to cut intros but not mid song, but don't take my word for it better wait for an official answer  :-X what i can suggest though is prepare beforehand so that you know exactly when the song reaches 2:30. so that for songs that would end at a strange place, stop singing a phrase early so it wouldn't be so embarassing, or if you know you are about to be cut off, sing through confidently till the end of the phrase so as to avoid looking silly :)).

We don't cut off at 2:30, we fade it out slowly starting at 2:30. So you can sing through it.

You can always end your song early by stepping away from the mic and bowing to the audience.

i have a question...
QuoteThis year's winner will receive a
beautiful microphone trophy and is invited to perform two songs at the start of the FanimeCon
Masquerade on Sunday evening.

by "two songs" does that mean the two songs you performed for the contest, or ANY two songs of your choice?

The song you performed in the Finals, and one song of your choice.
