End of Ponies Audio Book Project
Copy Paste:
With the author's permission and input, I am organizing an audio book format for The End of Ponies by Short_Skirts_and_Explosions. If you haven't read the story I heartily recommend it as one of the very best this fandom has to offer.
Due to the sheer number of characters in the story, I think it will sound much better with additional VA's as opposed to just me narrating it and stretching my vocal cords every which way.
Ideally, I'd want anypony able to pull off mane six voices (Specifically Fluttershy, Applejack, and/or Pinkie Pie so far.) If you can't mimic a show voice have no fear; there are plenty of OC's and I'm not all that particular about matching vocals as long as you can pull off the emotion from the story.
Anyone interested can find more details in my ponychan thread.
Or by contacting me by email

Good roundup! I'm glad the Derpy song made it in. =)
Darn, if only that meetup weren't on the FAR side of London.
Wow that Derpy song is nuts!
Lol I caught myself singing along to the Find a Pet song xD
I posted my comment earlier than first
I love Derpy's version of Smile, Smile, Smile! :3
AND YET ANOTHER REASON FOR ME TO LOVE "THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS"
OMG
They Might Be Giants has been plugging PMVs for a while, going as far back as August (that's how I discovered the show).
So glad our derpy song made it thru, hopefully well do it again soon
The smile song was amazing
TMBG are gods.
And I wish I was still in High School. I could have so much fun trolling with this stuff.
Cool, BaldDumboRat finished her cover of Smile, Smile, Smile! It sounds absolutely incredible. And having nearly 200 supporting voices is just all kinds of awesome. Well done, everypony!
Gah. That music video looks cool, but I need to avoid agitating my Derpy allergy.
And is it just me, or do ponies become way more noticeable once you start writing about them?
Hey, Toaster_Repairpony here, I did the editing for the find a pet collab :P nice to know it made it through
I was Daniel Reinert and Ninonybox in the smile song! :D
My gran used to live a 20 mins walk from Watford Junction. Still 80 miles away from me though :-(
the posters of celestia make her look like an communist warlord with all that red, and OBEY!, and that little army where she ruling over, so funny cuz I just had that topic on history :)
End of Ponies audio book?
Good luck with that to the team who are doing this.
In other news, short skirts said he won't be able to update the fic for a little. :/
Poor guy needs some break after writing all those words you know.
They Might Be Giants <3
It's a shame Toowomba is 99 miles away (literally). I would have loved to have gone...
another time in a closer place perhaps.
Best
University
Ever
I wanna print out the obey poster for my room.
my room is full of posters.
and i need pony ones
So many pony posters! O_O
That Derpyfied version of Smile, Smile, Smile! was great. I wanted to join, but it looks like they had it covered.
Those posters were bucking awesome. And that Celestia poster couldn't be more correct. RESISTANCE IS FUTILE!
Those two singalongs were rather cute. Especially the Derpy Smile song. Didn't sound like two hundred people on my end, but it can be hard to tell sometimes.
I could have sworn They Might Be Giants posted another PMV to one of their songs a while back. In any case, they're awesome, ponies or not. Ponies just heighten their awesome.
That school is absolutely plastered with pony election posters now. I love that someone already beat them to the punch and put up some others. That's how many Bronies there are now. Enough that if you're thinking of putting posters up in your school, you may be in for a surprise. :P
The prizes for that pony as humans art contest are clay models sculpted in the likes of your design. That's a pretty cool prize. Certainly worth a go.
After May, when I'm 18, I might give a London meetup a try. I'd probably go to a meetup that doesn't involve train costs though, me hates train costs.
*sigh* I keep seeing meetups around Columbus, OH, but never around the Cleveland area.
And yes, I recall TMBG posting PMVs before, and when they started getting flak for it from haters they replied by posting even more of them.
All the links from the End of Ponies audio book are broken D: That's a shame.. I can see myself voicing Brucie.
Columbus. That's where I live.
Are Brony Meet Ups Safe?
@archiveit
The Ohio Bronies also have one coming up the 24-25th IN Cleveland!

@Nate, we got quite a big group already coming along. You should too! :)
I sing along to pony songs all by myself, I think the more people would be more fun, lucky them, gonna find my own pony singing group
Pony propaganda...hahaha I need posters
Yes ponies and school, been there, and I love doing that, a PowerPoint is so much better when a random Luna is added.
Stuff! I love stuff...oh my gosh...more Scratchy:... I really really need!
WHOO IT MADE IN...i'm glad i was in it
FO:E Pinkie Poster for teh winz!
@natethebrony
It is? Same here!
@marcello Well, it is just a ponified version of a Stalinist propaganda poster.
That university is awesome. So many pony election posters. I would definitely love to see how the students and teachers react to them.
"These are all proper ones.. Pfft!"
@Firespikez
Only reason my name comes first: The Alphabet just works that way. Else you would definitely have been listed first.
Traktor LE :D ftw
They Might Be Giants has been down with cutting cartoon videos of their songs for ages. Am I the only one old enough to remember "Steven Spielberg Presents: Tiny Toon Adventures" making videos set to "Particle Man" and "Istanbul (Not Constantinople)" for actual episodes of that show?

In the header pic: Octavia is playing the bass arco-style left hooved usually she plays it right hooved. That is one seriously talented filly y'all looking at there...
@Gaiascope All the links seem to work for me. You can find the post quickly just by looking at the /collab/ board of ponychan as well if they still aren't working.
Am I the only one who is annoyed that whenever Octavia and Vinyl Scratch are shown collaborating, it's always Octavia helping Vinyl make techno music and never Vinyl helping Octavia make classical music?
Maybe that's why I don't like it when people try to put them together. Octavia is a classical musician, and to me her performing at a techno concert is just as out of character as Vinyl Scratch picking up an acoustic instrument and playing in a classical concert hall. What acoustic instrument would Vinyl Scratch even play, anyway?
I find it weird that near half of TMBG's Facebook fans are avid pony-hating douches when the band in question has made of career of children's music. At any rate, I stopped tracking their status updates.
