It is time to let the competition begin again! I, with Shaun's knowledge
AND Riley's (Wizard) lovely ideas, decided to create a spiritual successor to TiBB Eurovision. In August, we were in Pittsburgh, then to the Gold Coast in October, in Belgrade back in January, and last month, we were in Oslo. Cut to later this month and the second day of next month, and we'll be in Manchester saying "Give Me a Higher Love!" What songs will be heard? Where are the constant translations into French? When will the madness end? No idea.
FORMAT
The format of the TiBB Music Festival will remain similar to TiBB Eurovision, however, there are some changes. I will have a Spotify playlist of all of the songs for you to listen to the songs during the 4 day voting periods. For the voting, there will also be 2 sets of points (just like TiBB Eurovision), however, everyone will be
sending 1 sets of 4-8, 10, and 12 points for the jury voting, and there will be 1 set of an unknown number of points for televoting.
RULES
- If you want to take part, reply to this thread with the countries you want! But please, if you do reserve a country, I expect an entry.
--From this edition onwards, everyone can choose 2-7 countries to participate as.
- In a change from TiBB Eurovision, participants can now choose a song that is already in the public database (look on Spotify or YouTube, there are plenty of songs on either one).
- Lyrics, an artist name, song title AND music video are all that's required.
- Members may only represent between two and seven countries.
- Entries must be submitted to me as soon as possible. The events of the contest will take place over the course of a 2 week period.
- And for the first time since Globalvision, countries that are not in Europe or Australia will be able to participate.
- For the first time (in order to cut down on editing one video), there will be two semi-finals, and they will be posted on the same day.
You have as much time as you need to find your entries. Please find songs that we all may enjoy, and please don't feel afraid to take part The more entries, the more fun it is to run. Songs can be about anything you like, and whilst we are fairly liberal with what is deemed "in good taste" obviously a song containing 30 different death threats may well find itself lost in my inbox and doomed never to enter.
The winner of this glorious festivity shall also receive
a supply of Anastasia Beverly Hills cosmetics this lovely little award (which has been potentially lost in the TiBB Admin towers)!
- so if that isn't motivation to bring your A-game, I don't know what is.
Like last edition, the Big 6 (the top 6 of the previous edition) will all qualify for the final. All of the countries mentioned below will be free game (sans all of the ones I have, because some things never change with me, and because of the nature of the new participation rule).
