I have been enjoying the Ballad of the Month and Song of the Month topics a lot and Chris' Blues thread is also working well.
It occurred to me that there are 12 months in the year and 12 keys - we could start up a "Blues of the Month" topic and by the end of the year we would have covered all the keys !
There are various ways it could work - for instance we could decide the key of the month in advance and then let anyone who wants to contribute, find their own backing track in that month's key. That would mean a mixture of slow, fast, shuffle, rock, etc and different heads or no head at all. That wouldn't even need a "host of the month" to choose a tune or provide the backing track - it would practically run itself.
Alternatively the host of the month could pick from the remaining keys, post a backing track and some dots and then encourage/cajole people just as on the Ballad threads.
What do you think ?

PS We could even get some nice blues vocals too.
