Just a technical point - someone hummed a tune into their phone's voice recorder and asked me to record it while it played.
They weren't aware they could 'share' it by Bluetooth or email.
So, just in case you also didn't know how to send me your tune from your phone's voice recording, on most phones, if you hold the title of the recording, it will give you a list - i.e. rename, share, etc.
You can either share by email if you have email on your phone, or share by Bluetooth to someone else's phone who does have email, and send your entry to me that way.
Please let me know if you have any issues :)

The Adjudicators
We were asked, to ensure there would be no conflict of interest, our adjudicators were not to be resident in Armadale.
We are still awaiting confirmation on one of our adjudicators, however, I can tell you the names of the confirmed ones.
At the semi-final on Sunday 15th June, one of the adjudicators will be Mike Farrell from FSL productions. Mike is a music graduate with a wealth of experience playing in bands from large orchestras, to pipe and rocks bands.
At the final on Wednesday 18th June, our first adjudicator is Elma Paton, singer, Secretary of the Livingston Highland Society and former Mod Winner.
On Wednesday we also have Anne-Marie Vance - Senior Arts Officer at West Lothian Council, and member of 'Upscale' band. (Recently in the papers when Susan Boyle popped into 1912)

What the adjudicators will be marking
As the 31st May, closing date is drawing nearer, I thought I should write a post on what the Adjudicators will be marking the songs on.
1, The Armadale Factor - the relevance of the song to Armadale, West Lothian
2, The Crowd Reaction - will they sing along? How loud will they cheer?
3, Melody and Lyrics - We want to promote the song as much as possible - how easy would it be for another band to play along - brass/flute or pipes?
I will be posting the entries by Monday 2nd June so you can hear and 'like' them.
Further details to come...
