Does this cover have to be a solo, or can the entrant arrange and perform on the cover and have guest artists (e.g.) family members perform as well?

The contest for Kerplunk allowed other members too.

Nope. Any song from American Idiot can be covered.

Hey, here's a funny idea, why not cover She's A Rebel, but add a brutally heavy breakdown right in the middle of it... no one... ok then...

Surely everyone's favourite band 5sos's cover of AI has already won? :P

I like the bit on GDA about publicly shaming theives. :lol:

On a serious note, what would you guys advise using for uploading MP3's? Like soundcloud? And what devices would you use for the actual recording process?

What's that about stealing other people's work? Has that happened before?

B-sides are included in this, FYI.

Would it be okay to possibly do a B-side?

Is it okay to submit videos as entries?

Nope, we want mp3s so people are judging audio only.

This is tempting!!! But so little time... :( 

Also trying to think about arrangements, the musical versions come to my mind and I can't ignore them :lol: plus we have the kerrang covers... its going to be hard to do something original! Good challenge haha.
