Regrettably, I have to pull out cause I cant get there. It sucks I know. Have an awesome time without me guys.

I'm in on this now.

I have absolutely no idea how I'm going to get there but I would love to be in on this. And I'd love to be playing as well.

Well when you put your location as "The Future" then I had to do some Googling. This was what I got: http://www.lovely.com/bios/harmonic.html

I expected the odd mistake. Corrections are welcome.

Guess what team 27, I KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE!

Of the 27 Survivors:

Australia: 12
North America: 11 (USA: 10, Canada:1)
Europe: 4 (Sweden: 1, Switzerland: 1, Germany: 1, Scotland: 1)

On the Aussie front - SA: 6, VIC: 5, NSW: 1

For the USA - California: 2, Washington State: 2, Ohio: 1, New York State: 1, Michigan: 1, Florida: 1, Illinois: 1, Arizona: 1

East Coast: 5
West Coast: 5

So go you Aussies, and specifically rock on Adelaide!

A few of my tracks are on this. I remastered them for the release.

I seem to be ending up with less and less time to write my songs each week. But The thought of making it halfway is inspiring!

Sorry I haven't been able to make this a weekly thing anymore but I currently don't have the internet at my house and I also don't have the time I used to have anymore.

But now that we've made it to the Half way point I thought I would update those stats.

I have worked them out based on the RSS feed linked with my iTunes account. They aren't perfect as iTunes does some weird maths calculating track lengths. There's a mix of numbers from iTunes as well as some Excel stuff. Well anyway...

There have been 249 Individual Artists that have uploaded a song to WeeklyBeats.

So far there have been 2651 tracks uploaded to the site. The time to listen to all the music continuously would take 6 days, 10 hours, 50 minutes and 58 seconds.

This is 28.36% of the original 134 artists in week 1 and only 15.26% of the 249 artists overall. This is also 61.29% of the 62 artists that have submitted a track this week. This statistic has been checked manually by going through every artist who submitted a song in week 62 and counting all of their submissions on their profile page. There is a chance I missed a few in the process.

Here is the list of Team 38:

This is just a friendly reminder that daylight savings time has just ended in all Australian states that use it. Therefore, we now have an hour less to upload our tracks.

For example if you're in Adelaide, you now have to get your tracks in before 9:30 AM Monday instead of 10:30 AM.

Don't be one of the ones that forgets and doesn't get their track in on time.

YOU'VE NOW BEEN WARNED...

P.S. This possibly applies to more people. I'm on my phone so I just haven't got time to check right now.
