I'm not sure what exactly the name of this possible dome would be but the idea is a dome of songs about being a singer/band/performer/etc.

Do you mean like, say a Bowiedome or do you just mean each participant chooses four entries from one performer or group?

No, that's not quite it. I guess metamusic would be the term for what I'm trying to describe.

"Metamusic is music about music: songs that reference themselves, the singer, other songs, other singers, musical instruments, the process of writing or recording a song, the music industry, or anything else that is related to music."

I have *one* perfect song lined up for "music that's about itself" but could probably come up with a few others...

So like if a band had it's own theme song,


Or songs that are responses to other songs?


I assume this one would count.

That last one would be a great entry in an “Artists Imitating Other Artist’s Styles Dome”, though it would be tough to keep that dome from being at least 50% Weird Al by volume.

Funeral / Memorial Dome (or DirgeDome, if you prefer)

(Or would that be too much like the DepressingDome?)

Doo-wop Dome (or do we not have enough oldheads for that to get any traction / interest?)

Also, that does somewhat conflict with my idea of a decades dome.

Food songs-dome?

...

Yeah, I'm not sure if that would have enough courses.

LyricsDome
PoetryDome

(OK, I think I might be scraping the bottom of the barrel here.)

Unfortunate doesn't begin to describe...

How about ShortenedDome, songs that last really short (less than 1 minute?)

We did something similar to but slightly different than that. I still think it's an interesting suggestion.

In Mega Microdome$, four smaller-scale music thunderdomes will be run concurrently. From my own suggestions and others', I have selected four that might not have the bench depth to support a full event.

Here are the four categories:
  • [...]
  • West Division: The Very Short Dome! Every song in this category must end or loop within 30 seconds. It does not have to be from a video game.
Songs of one minute / 60 seconds or less might not have the same issue as what Bongo mentioned for 30 second ones or maybe they'll have the same issue. But I do remember one pick I was considering was over the strict time limit for that.

CoverWomenDome - The CoversDome had a good response* so I think it would be interesting to have a Dome of covers of or by female artists.

*And so did the FemaleDome.

TheNumberedDome - for songs that have numbers in the title. And/or for songs by artists that have numbers in their name.
