The Fat Man and Circuit Girl Cast 5 from Jeri Ellsworth on Vimeo

Win Jeri's Bluetooth Chicken by playing "Still Alive" on the GHX!!

Do you just LOVE Jonathan Coulton? Of course you do, he's one of us...too smart to be a "cool musician."

And here's your chance to actually out-nerd him by playing one of his songs on an instrument that he can't play...YET.*

You'll need:

A Guitar Hero or Rockband controller for XBOX
A mic or webcam
A copy of the GHX software by our Proto-Scientiste friend Thom Robertson. The free demo version will work fine.
The chart that the Fat Man has prepared for you (click below.)

Record your rending, er, rendition of Still Alive in either video or audio and send it to us before Jeri posts her version

Please Do Not Be Fearful. We're not looking for "musical talent." Play the tune in a way that entertains us, or that's fun for you. This is a safe place to stretch your limits and be goofy. If anybody laughs at you in any but a loving way, know this: That person's stock will go down in our eyes, and yours will go up.

And hey, you might just be The Talented Winner. Remember, if George can win a trophy at a demo party, you can win a trophy for a musical performance.
