Lucky there's a Fam-i-ly Guuuy....

I know this is completely random, but I'm shocked out of my mind.

I just got the piano transcription of the Family Guy theme song.... :o

Now I have 5 for Fighting for the ladies and Family Guy for the guys.... ;D

TELL ME WHERE!!!!!

Family Guy that is. I already have it for the Simpsons. Sounds more like random notes than the Simpsons Theme Song though :D
Ahh llamas......is there anything they can't do?

CONGRATULATIONS TERRY!

This is a thread you made that can't POSSIBLY turn into an ugly riot. *claps with enthusiasm*

Not interested in playing 'Family Guy', but I've never seen the sheets before. Where'd you find it?

Well, it's only a transcription for it (not the actual music).  But, doesn't that mean it's perfectly legal to pass it on to you? Like through e-mail or something?

If Nils won't get mad, I'd be glad to send the transcription to you, llama.

It does sound remarkably like Family Guy.

 :P  Hopefully this won't turn into an ugly riot...maybe there are some Family Guy haters out there?  Or some people who can't stand the thought of actually playing a theme song for a modern TV show?  Who knows.

Some guy in my dorm printed it out for me cause he knew I played piano.  Not sure where he got it.

But seriously, where are those old-fashioned family values?

I wouldn't think the Family Guy theme would lend itself to the piano well at all (it's usually these transcriptions that are poorly-made that give television and movie theme transcriptions a bad name).  I have, however, transcribed Peter's piano competition piece from the episode 'Peter and the Beer Factory'. ;D
