This is probably going to work better in theory than in practice, but I think a collaborative music piece done by the board is an idea too awesome not to try and follow through. It could perhaps take the form of one person providing a chord structure, someone else adding a bassline, then a melody, until we have our own song. Does this idea suck?
How it might work:
There is the music and a recording of the song in it's current form, so for example we start with a chord structure. This is then recorded and wrote down and sent to the next contributor. They then update recording and music. Using something like Guitar Pro or Sibelius I could write the whole thing up if there's problems with people recording.
Anyway, that's just a basic idea of how it might work. Christ, this thing is destined to fail.

Does it have lyrics?

Hell, it can have didgeredoo. If you reckon you could live up to the greatness of TOUAMB and write some great lyrics about it, that'd be fantastic. Maybe a certain poetry expert who has been here since the babysteps of the board.

Last time I wrote lyrics on this board I was promised a recorded song, but I never heard it.
I'm looking at you Limmo...

Honestly, I think we should just get it done right now and steal 'We Are the World.'
It's quick, it's easy, it's star-studded.

TOUAMB band? Playing the blues the government doesn't want to be heard?
I always translate "touamb" to "tomb" in my mind (because it sounds cool, not because I come here to die). How about the "Touambstones"?

Yes! Good! A band name is always the first step. The Touambies might work, but confusion with awards and all. I can't believe I'm taking this seriously.

I approve of this project but have no way of contributing. So... y'know. Carry on.

If you need words or a melody to a singing line I'm the guy... beyond that.. uhh.. I will watch. Hello.

As long as you do not sing about torture, stalking, or sexual deviancy. Unless you can do it in a Jarvis Cocker kind of way. Scratch that, DO sing about these things. If it's going to be a TOUAMB song, then it's going to have some misterqueue personality in it.
I apologise for that crankiness.

If we don't sing about those things, all that's left is giraffe placenta.

And prescriptive grammar.

Will the song be Educational?
-
Mostly I am hoping it is basically like treasure.

'Basically like treasure' would be a good title, though it sounds more like an album title than a song.
