Over New Year's, I was hanging out with a bunch of my friends, most of whom are Firefly fans and several of whom are musically inclined. Eventually we started messing around with the theme song, and ended up recording a fairly nifty
cover of it, which I post here for your enjoyment:

The sound quality isn't great - our equipment consisted of my laptop mic. But apart from that, what do you guys think?

Credits:
Adam Roush on the guitar
Noah Tucker on the oboe
Lisa Grossman, Jon Napolitano, and Reuven Lazarus (that's me!) on the vocals
Many thanks to Brian Burke ( www.brianburkemusic.com), whose transcriptions were a starting point.
And that Whedon dude probably did something important.

(Hope I'm posting this in the right place - I'm generally a lurker around these parts. Apologies if I botched.)

Etaoin/Reuven - shiny! :) You guys did a great job!

Over at the Browncoat board (Gossi's), there's a thread called "Browncoats, The Album" where we've tried to gather up all the fan recordings we can. I'd like to add your cover to it! :)

Nice job, thanks for posting it!

Where can I find the chords for the song? Last night I was thinking it'd be cool to lay down a cover of that...

Thanks,
Daniel
