Playing This Walrus: This Walrus will be 5 parts with 5 reveals conducted over a (you guessed it) 5 week period. Something a little bit different is that I will be setting deadlines of submissions for each of the categories separately so that you don’t have to submit them all at once though you may if you prefer it that way. The game times will remain from the previous Walrus which amounts to 9am Australian Eastern Standard Time on Sundays. Reveals are Saturday 5.30pm EST.
Here is the updated schedule. Submissions are due 7 days beforehand.
31st May: Category 1 - Broken - I would like to hear a song that is about imperfection. Specifically human imperfection.
7th June: Category 2 - Oddball - I would like to hear a song that represents a person, thing or concept that is quirky or odd, in a way that may or may not be charming.
14th June: Category 3 - Actually Terrible - This is a song that represents the most embarrassing/cringeworthy or devastating thing that ever happened to you as a child/teenager.
21st June: Category 4 - We’ve Had Enough - Show me a song that represents the feeling of breaking out of your psychological bindings. Letting go of fear and taking control of yourself. What you do with that newfound independence … is unclear.
28th June: Category 5 - Goon of Fortune - Imagine being at a house party surrounded by alcohol, drugs and teenagers. What’s on the stereo? This can be you at one now or you at one when you were that age. Either way I don't mind.
5th July: Category 6 - Are You Okay? - This song captures the essence of what it is to be psychotic. To lose your grip on reality and start living life accordingly.
12th July: Category 7 - (Friends and) Family Guy - The song represents finding comfort in family and friends. Discovery of new love, having children and realising the value of normality.
19th July: Category 8 - Success - A song that describes or captures the feeling of finally accomplishing something that has eluded you or that you’ve worked very hard to get.
26th July: Category 9 - Fuck This Shit - How does COVID-19 make you feel? Really? Play me a song that demonstrates that.
2nd August: - Category 10 - The Future’s Overrated - Have you ever just wanted to stop aspiring and settle into a simple life of debauchery? Give in to your aspirations and lean into your vices with me for this final act. Let’s go out having a good time.
