Song Fight! is 25 years old!
Folks, we've hit another milestone. Song Fight was started by Colin Cunningham in mid June 25 years ago! It's amazing to think of how much the world and especially technology and the Internet have changed since then. And here we are, still going. Cheers to you all and here's to another 25!
Nur Ein XX has begun!
Nur Ein also hits a big milestone this year too with Niveous running its 20th incarnation! Amazing! The tournament is nearly done, but you can still follow along on
the Nur Ein Web site and
the boards to hear the songs see who becomes ... Nur Ein!
Rest In Peace, Irwin and Dennis
Two of our long time community members recently passed away suddenly and unexpectedly. Irwin contributed as "Suck Weasel" and under many other names, solo and in collaborations, and was a regular at Song Fight Live, including last year's event in Denver. Dennis was the singer, songwriter, and guitarist in sonofsupercar, who performed at many "Song Fight Presents" shows in the SF Bay Area back in the '00s. We will miss them both very much.
