Ideas for talent show.

KieranusTyranus · 19-10-2005 6:41pm #1

Heres a thread for any ideas people might have for next years talent shows.

Does Any1 want to help me with a Father Ted sketch including My lovely horse? All you need is a black jacket a piece of cloth or paper for a priests collar and we have to get a keyboard and acoustic guitar. I want to play dougal so i need some1 for ted.
Oh i almost forgot I need ppl for Jack Mrs Doyle Dick Byrne and Cyril as well as the Gay Guy Ted meets and the guy John Kenny played in that episode.

PurpleFistMixer · 19-10-2005 6:43pm

Isn't it a bit, uh... early for this?

Raphael · 19-10-2005 7:45pm

Part of the fantasticyness of the CTYI talent show is the impromptuyness. Planning fails

Here's an idea: Get on with the rest of your life till next summer. CTYI is great and all, but it's best to backburner it for 9 months of the year

KieranusTyranus · 20-10-2005 4:50pm

If I do what I usually do and leave it until next year I wont organize it right and it will be a disaster.

Raphael · 20-10-2005 5:01pm

Yup, just like all those acts that just got thrown together in the last mainute and sucked completely....

Oh wait

Zounds · 20-10-2005 6:50pm

The group who did the Eddie Izzard sketch was frantically thrown together the night before the day of the auditions and most of the funniest stuff was made up on the spot or during rehearsal

Raphael · 20-10-2005 7:45pm

Yes, but Raph dislikes people who talk in the third person

RefulgentGnomon · 20-10-2005 8:30pm

Anyway, you can't suggest a Father Ted sketch AND insist on playng Dougal!

Zounds · 20-10-2005 9:11pm

I was referring to the group as whole, not just me, therefore not third person. f00.

Undergod · 20-10-2005 10:29pm

I think you should eat a member of the audience. Whole.

Or catch Moby Dick, and have a great white whale tossing competition (sport of kings, I say) and the winner gets control of an enormous fiefdom covering the DCU campus, Patagonia, Yucatan Peninsula and the Maldives.

Feral Mutant · 21-10-2005 5:48pm

I'd want to take part if I get in again next year. Also I want to do a sketch that's daubbed. Just have people moving their lips and me hiding behind the piano speaking into the mic.

Character1: (mouths words) Who's that?
Character2: (spends thirty seconds mouthing a sentence) I don't know

smiley_knees · 21-10-2005 7:08pm

Yeah, original ideas are hard to come by.
Ooh, ooh! You could get a band together and have a ridiculously large amount of guitarists on stage!!!
Oh wait no, that's been done...
Oh ok! You could do a news report and... Oh wait no..
You could put Aonghus under a sheet and give Aidan a really big stick and- Crap, there I go again!
Eh, maybe the Father Ted sketch might work...
*G wonders why, with her Nevermore bitterness, she is helping Non-Nev's*

Feral Mutant · 21-10-2005 7:53pm

I officially call the role of Father Jack.

This is session 2 right?

JenLorigan · 21-10-2005 10:07pm

I like Bill's idea

And don't start planning it now. That said, don't try and decide what to do in the twenty seconds before your audition

slasher_65 · 22-10-2005 1:42pm

dead parrot i say! just change it to dead sportofrancalion. we could get fake siggs and everything! a yellow backsack could be purched for a small amount in pennys. i call the role of the sportofrancalion!

Feral Mutant · 22-10-2005 5:12pm

Something from Monty Python could be good. Most people have seen the films but not everyone will have seen the show.

Jack Lynch · 23-10-2005 7:04pm

There seem to be a lot of people who have nothing better to do for the next 9 months

It wasn't me! · 23-10-2005 7:29pm

Try not to make up your audition song as you go.

Undergod · 23-10-2005 8:12pm

The band most faithful to the great Punk DIY tradition to never get into the talent show. Sniff. I'll never forget you guys, and my one-audition career as a punk singer.

It wasn't me! · 23-10-2005 8:38pm

It was a good time, and we had such a laugh, but it was so damn DIY it was unreal! We made up the drumming as we went along.

Undergod · 23-10-2005 8:42pm

Where we = Pierce!

LiamD · 23-10-2005 9:16pm

Posted an incredible 9 months before CTYI

The words 'life' and 'get' come to mind

Y'know something Liam, we REALLY need to stop agreeing about things =D

LiamD · 23-10-2005 9:30pm

True

Piste · 24-10-2005 2:57pm

/aside to Liam

''Dude, Aonghus called you fat!''

/Aside to Aonghus

''Dude, Liam called you ugly''

Let the games begin

/Aside to Liz

"We can all read your above post. Your ploy was ill-formed."

Piste · 24-10-2005 7:31pm

Ah yes, they invented PM for a reason...

Raphael · 24-10-2005 7:55pm

but it was an aside. No one can see asides! Haven't you READ shakespare???

TalkISCheap · 24-10-2005 8:26pm

Liz, Liz, Liz!!! Have you not realised by now that they don't need such silly things as reasons to fight?

pfffft, having reasons is secondary to the thrill of the mod-evading and general flame-fest that does be going on...

It wasn't me! · 24-10-2005 8:53pm

Ah Macbeth. Cool play, but reading plays sucks ass...

Love · 24-10-2005 10:47pm

Have to agree with Aonghus and Liam on this one... it's way too early to start thinking about that!

Somewhat like Aidans ma....

Mr.D.Leprachaun · 25-10-2005 4:17pm

I'm doing it now but I like "The Merchant of Venice" better. So much happening between the lines.

Ah yes, I've never seen drumming done as uniquely as that audition.... ahh, memories....:cool:

Piste · 25-10-2005 8:01pm

Macbeth is a legend of a play. Such characters, such speeches!

/me drools

It wasn't me! · 25-10-2005 8:11pm

It's cool, but plays aren't meant to be studied like that...

Mr.D.Leprachaun · 25-10-2005 8:39pm

"You can't say he/she is absolutely evil because no-one is 100% evil" So Shakespearean characters are sometghing other than fictional?

That's not the god-damned word. They're Sportalians regardless of where they're from. If you must add in French then they become Sporchalians, not that stupid thing.

[EDIT] wow, the new way of editing is damned nifty[/EDIT]

Who cares???It's a made up word anyway

Me. Clearly.

Every word is made up. If you think about it.

Raphael · 26-10-2005 6:42pm

That wasn't Zounds, it was Liam

Undergod · 26-10-2005 6:54pm

Yeah, I know, but I clicked on the quotey at the bottom of Zound's post by haccident and copied in Liam's post, but forgot to change the user. I'll leave it be, it's funny.

slasher_65 · 26-10-2005 7:26pm

im confuzzeld. (more made up words!) if we figgure outthe REAL and DEFINITIVE spelling for "it" i will make some sort of tshirt slagging off their very being. instant hit methinks!

Raphael · 26-10-2005 7:35pm

No one with any sense is ever going to buy anything from that shop. Just thought someone should let you know.

Piste · 26-10-2005 8:00pm

Making up words FTW!
