GUITAR CONTEST

2017 FALL CONTEST SUBMISSIONS

A very big thank you to those who participated in this contest! And, a very big apology for how certain things turned out!

What the hell does THAT mean?!

This was the first contest Mile High Shred hosted. This turned out to be QUITE the learning experience. Turns out that having a voting process for anyone and everyone to vote led to some, or MANY, votes coming from some of the same people who managed to bypass the online poll's setting of only one vote per person. This caused me to take the voting process down because I felt it wasn't right. I done PHUKKED up!

So, in order to be fair to all contestants, everyone received a gift card for their participation.

Any future contests will have a top 3 placement (as was the intention of this first contest) and I will be picking the top 3 after discussing the performances with other musicians.

​Contest Terms, Conditions, Agreements

  • You own the rights to the music you add to the backing track for the contest, BUT...
  • You do NOT own the rights to the backing track you will be writing with/over. I, John Taylor, own those.
  • If you wish to sell the final product of your music plus my backing track, please ask me directly first. Giving me 50% of what you make is what I ask.
  • When you upload your video you are asked to include the following in your video description:
    "Backing track written by John Taylor of Mile High Shred"
    If you do NOT include this you will  lose your chance to win the contest.
  • Include the link to the voting page once voting has begun (it will increase your chances of winning).
  • You give permission for John Taylor (me!) aka: Mile High Shred to put your video submission up on any Mile High Shred social media platform for further exposure of your material.
  • Mile High Shred aka: John Taylor is NOT responsible for what other people say to you or about your submission online, or in person.
    Please understand that any time you put something out on the internet you will receive comments. Usually they seem to be positive. But, sometimes, unfortunately, some are not so nice. I will do my best to moderate things on my end when possible.
  • There is NO guarantee that you will be in the top ten or be one of the winners.
  • There are no prize alternatives.
