2009 rally entertainment.

[Snarley Bill]

just wanted to throw this out there for a member opinion. while at the hub yesterday i checked out the meeting hall and they have a big stage. the committee has talked about having entertainment one night. what does everyone think of this and what kind would you want, a band, karaoki, d.j., or what? need a little output on this to put before the committee. bill

[Mikealiasmike]

Perhaps a poll would be in order??? Any of the above sounds great.

[Bummer]

Pink Floyd? Jethro Tull? I hear Procol Harem's still touring.

 

On a more modern note KT Tunstall does a great solo version of Black Horse and a Cherry Tree.

Oh, wait. You were serious. Old rocker. Can't help myself. What ever works for you guys. I'll even suffer Country out of love for my brothers, though I will bring ear plugs.

 

Ok, ok, serious answer: A DJ would be more content neutral.

 

Meanwhile I'll settle for the sprinklers at the campground.

I set up a Poll for Member Feedback!

great idea. i was going to call garth brooks this morning to see if he would be available. but not sure he would be suitable for everyone. :rotf:

[Dooder1]

Hey Freebird had been practicing on his guitar. I think he should be the entertainment and maybe some of the other members who play could join him:stickpoke:. Just dont let Cinderella sing:stirthepot:

Lets build a pond on the stage and put a lawnmower up there and Watch Don drive around it till the inevitable happens. We'll make bets on which lap.

Hey let's ask CMiles3 to stop by Garth's house and ask him and Trish - he lives close to them. Or if Phil sees Garth and Trish in the local Wendy's again he'll ask.

 

All kidding aside, I bet we have some good musicians and singers within our VR group, any one willing to step up to the plate, or should I say stage?

[Bummer]

Classical clarinet anyone? I think I still remember Greensleeves. Maybe Don can play along. Strum strum squeeeeeeeeek honk. Ouch. About those earplugs...

 

Meanwhile Irene said "Ooooh Garth" and smacked me up side the head. Didn't help. No accounting for taste. She likes the Ditzy Chicks.

[hipshot]

Freebird , Gentleman George, and Stratcat, immediately came to mind.

i never leave home without my instrument. even though it don't toot no more.

Watching Squidley or Mother pole dancing:bang head:, no thanks.......... That would be torture........

[DragonRider]

Not with some of the characters we have on this site, like the pond monster, the lawnmower stunt driver, bike laydown artists, just to name a few..........

[V7Goose]

If y'all want to do some entertainment, find something that INVOLVES the members there, not imposes on them (but NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT karaoke!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!).

 

Something like a giant charades game might be interesting, with all clues being member screen names. Or maybe write up a one paragraph description of each member's motorcycle history and pass them out - each person taking a turn to read the info on someone and have the crowd guess who. Maybe do a roast of a couple of "special" members. Perhaps at registration, have each member write down their most surprising job they have held and have the crowd guess who it might have been. Those are just a couple of feeble ideas thrown out off the cuff to give some examples of what I mean by involving the members. My point is, don't intrude on our time together, ENHANCE it by helping us learn more about each other and have a good time at it.

Great Idea..............did your wife think of that for you...

[V7Goose]

No, but I don't mind if she takes credit for it. I think it was probably the new rear tire I mounted yesterday that whispered it in my ear. Y'all know I interact with the mechanical stuff better than the humans anyway!

Oh, here's another idea - have a "Dating Game" where the player is looking for a new motorcycle (the date) and the contestants are randomly picked and given an assignment to "be" a specific year/brand/model of motorcycle.
