scoring? sight reading? uh-oh! :o

If scoring helps with realizing your vision of how the anthem should be performed, then I think its great. For me though, I suspect it wouldn't be very helpful, as I'm more of a play-by-ear musician, i.e., worst sight-reader between both poles. When I perform a cover (or parody), I usually don't bother with any transcribing, scoring, or sheet music, I just listen, and then find the notes, or the root chords at least, on keyboard or guitar. At most, I might scribble down the letters of the chords where they go in the lyrics. I know how to read sheet music if necessary, but I'm realllllly slow at it. I'm not great at grabbing any sheet music, opening up and playing off of it like a pro. I could probably sing off of sheet music if it's a simple melody and with the help of a pitch pipe (or music accompaniment). So, if you want to score the anthem and have us work off of that, I could try. I'll look around for Muse Score. I'm not familiar with but I've seen music composition apps and it sounds something like that. But otherwise, my inclination would have been to take guidance from the audio clip of the Armidillo song performance in your original post. Garage Band was simple enough to figure out on my own, though I'm still only at basic proficiency (enough to record a multi-layered performance and convert it to mp3 which is all I have needed). I'd be happy to provide tips.
