NCAA douchebaggery aside, if I could change one thing about college football it would be to get rid of the stupid bands. Having to listen to bands play some stupid little ditty after every play is annoying.
I respectfully disagree. The bands are a part of the college atmosphere and are part of the setting. I wish that they would get rid of all the canned music used during the halftime shows and let the bands have a longer set. Sometimes during a blowout. (of which I sat through too many this year.) The interaction between the bands and the student cheer sections is the best part of the game.
It's just a constant reminder that I'm watching shitty, poorly played football. Then again it probably doesn't help that the team I follow is utterly worthless and not worth watching even when they play somewhat decently.
Just watched 'The Kingsman' - really fun movie. The scene in the church was one of the most amazing sequences I've ever seen in a movie.
The soundtrack also kicked ass. Especially the use of 'Free Bird' in the church and 'Give It Up' by KC in the final conflict.
I just left my wife at a neighborhood party because she thought it was funny to hit me in the face. I'm not even sure what to say about this right now. Tomorrow should be interesting.
Today I sat by a stranger who cried multiple times throughout the last Hunger Games movie. I hope this bitch's grandma just died or something because otherwise I'm so full of judgement and want to take away her voters card. I haven't cried in a movie since Steel Magnolias in 1991. And the only reason I cried was because I was 9 and wanted to be playing with my Barbies and shit.
God, do I detest that song. Not for the song itself, but because of the thousands of times drunken rednecks yelled at us to play it. We'd just get done playing Crazy Train or something similar and some toothless idiot would yell "FREE BIRD!" at the top of their lungs. We're five guys with long hair, earrings, wearing make up, leather and a half gallon of hair spray each. Do we look like we play mother fucking Free Bird? Go home and fuck your sister you inbred, illiterate, sister fucking, sister fucker. ....and that's probably why the rest of the band wouldn't let me have a mic.
I need to hear the resolution of this. You should sit her down for a serious talk, then play Freebird. Nod knowingly while pointing at the stereo during particular parts like the intro slide guitar. Don't even say a word, only point at song sections. "Bitch, this is some serious shit... oop, solo."
We'd usually just play the Scorpions "Always Somewhere", the drunk rednecks would think we were firing up Skynyrd's "Simple Man" since both songs start in C and have a similar chord progression. By the time our singer actually started the lyrics they were already back to their drunken arguing about wrestlers, boats, or whose sister is more attractive. Skynyrd: Scorpions:
Yeah, well cool guy, I happen to know that The Alphabet Song and Twinkle Twinkle Little Star are the same song when you hum them. Your mind is blown.
I don't particularly care for the song either, but it was perfect for the scene in the church in Kingsman.
For those of you familiar with porn -- which is all of you-- the lovely performing artist known as Stoya dropped somewhat of a hammer yesterday:
