Seriously, can we do this for 2009?
It's too late for 2008 I think. But for 2009 I think it might even be possible for us to get number 1. Imagine that!
I'm in anyways, I play guitar and bass and can do some synths and schtuff...
Rent a big hall somewhere and then get as many boardsies as possible there to record the chorus. :cool: :cool:0 -

Yeah, we could do something call and response on the chorus, maybe with the male boardsies and the female 0 -

I wasn't joking, it might actually be a good idea. Both for SSF (more funds raised? & greater awareness) and for boards.ie (more publicity and most importantly GOOD publicity)
Im not joking either, it'd be really cool to be involved in something like this.
Someone would have to step up and take responsibility for organisation though, imagine the amount of work in organising a bunch of completely disparate musicians etc.0 -

You can do the triangle harmonies.0 -

Sounds like a great plan. We must make this happen, and then we can all say we have had a number one hit single! I can't sing or play an instrument or anything, but I'll help out in any way I can.
Would it be very wrong for us to do Rick Astley?! 0 -

We'd have to pay the author royalties. We could write a song about rick rolling though. 0 -

Enlist one of the colleges who offer music, get the hall and probably most of the recording gear etc. free of charge if you give the college a bit of positive PR out of it ...Rent a big hall somewhere and then get as many boardsies as possible there to record the chorus. :cool: :cool:
And given the number of students on boards.ie, any college you pick will have members, and likely enough ones doing music ...
Well, we have our very own boards.ie Spitting Image version of Rick to front it!Would it be very wrong for us to do Rick Astley?!

That's a bloody great idea! Would a college really go for it though?randylonghorn wrote: »Well, we have our very own boards.ie Spitting Image version of Rick to front it!

Well, I couldn't guarantee it, but I'd be 90% confident, tbh.That's a bloody great idea! Would a college really go for it though?
Enlist some boardsies from that college, preferably from the Music Soc (which there would certainly be one in the bigger colleges offering music). Get the society involved as a partner, get them to mediate with department, bring one or two faculty on board (you could easily turn up a boardsie fac. member, for that matter!). Gets around a lot of issues like insurance, security, etc. as to all intents and purposes it's an internal event.
Offer a nice photo with Prof. / Pres. / senior bod which they can use for PR, give them a mention in your own blurb etc., and you would be likely to smooth the way even more.
I would be genuinely surprised if you didn't have at least one willing college, maybe more ...
PLeaaaase don't shoot me, and I honestly have had little or no interaction with DIT, but in my experience Unis tend to be more open to students organising mad events, especially when outsiders are involved as well.Well we have at least 3 DIT music students that i know of on boards! Although DIT aren't known for their organisational skills.
That may just be my experience though ...
Challengemaster ... walks into LANs and they automatically blast "Never gonna ... " at him!Whozzat then? 0 -

Sounds promising, good stuff dude!
When you aren't making cock-jokes you make a lot of sense!Ahahaha no trust me I know, DIT are useless and the Conservatory of Music is snobby as bejeezus! For some reason i reckon UCD might be the best bet!
Trinity could be worth a shot too imo0 -

An adaption of We Didn't Start the Fire, ftw.
Literally every boardsie could be listed in the verses.
And the chorus could be good too:
'We didn't start the flaming' (or trolling, or whatever)

Great idea. Would we get away with it under copyright law thingies as a parody? Or is that just the states?0 -
This is the winner, get rehearsing.
Oh we might need some well endowed wimmin to front the band, anime style.
