Pagal | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 10:01 am     Ah, got it. Thanks Ms. Fruit. Or is that Ms. Bat? LOL |
Fruitbat | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 10:03 am     If you are not going to use Your Majesty, either one will do.  |
Hermione69 | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 10:10 am     *Snort* |
Djgirl5235 | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 10:14 am     lol at the two of you! |
Webkitty | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 10:42 am     Well, we used to call Bat HRH, and I think it should be brought out of retirement. I won't be around tonight to watch with you guys, (the hub's b-day) but have fun! |
Car54 | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 11:47 am     LOL, you make it sound like Josh has a plot going to sneak in as a pop singer. He SAID his idol was Garth Brooks in the auditions. He just has to sing what is part of the theme. And yodel girl is JUST as country as he is...and we have not heard her sing anything that didn't come out country..whether it was supposed to or not. He has sung ballads in auditions..I bet he will do ok...my big concern is he doesn't move well..he is a little stiff..so I don't know if he will be any good at the disco rhythm. |
Wink | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 12:06 pm     A split screen with Josh and Julia trying to shake their booties to a disco tune would probably be very amusing. |
Prisonerno6 | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 12:13 pm     Ummmm...am I the only one here old enough to remember how pervasive disco was back in the 70's? There *was* country disco...you could find a little bit of everything with that dance beat. Disco is the motherlode of one hit wonders, after all -- put a good base line and a dance rhythm to pure shlock and people would listen to it. Off to do the hustle... |
Fruitbat | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 12:22 pm     Car, I am convinced Josh is with the Country Mafia and infiltrated this contest with motives that are not yet clear to me but I have my eye on him. I don't trust him. He is a very scary man.  |
Beachcomber88 | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 01:13 pm     Fruit, do you think Julia is this year's Nikki? She was seemingly always at the bottom. I did not particularly care for her orange hair, her nose ring, her cargo pants, or her singing, but apparently a segment of America did. Weren't there rumors that she had friends with computers doing the dialing over and over? Shades of that Big Brother year with the Save George (?) campaign. They should somehow set it to only allow one call per phone line. Anyone think YMCA will be sung tonight? Any disco compilation would include this now tired song. Based on some of the song choices so far (The Wiz?), anything's possible... |
Pagal | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 01:25 pm     Pagal does the hustle with Prisonero6. |
Car54 | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 01:33 pm     LOL, Bat...if he is, then yodel girl is his moll. Oh I think Ricky should do YMCA...he would be really funny spelling the letters. Edited to add: Where in heck was I in the 70's? I was in college and grad school and I don't remember HALF these dang songs. If it wasn't in Saturday Night Fever I don't remember it. |
Purrceptive | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 01:37 pm     Car54 -- I for the most part am a lurker. Ok, I'm a major lurker. But the mere thought of Ricky doing the YMCA and spelling out the letters as he sang almost made me spit my water out at the monitor! That's a very funny image and I had to climb out from underneath my rock and post! |
Fruitbat | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 01:39 pm     You werent in the gay bars Car. That was one of Disco's biggest venues. Beach...I draw no parallels to last year. I only watched at the end and have no idea what went on. I don't think Julia will necessarily make if very far. Just thinking she may get enough sympathy votes to dodge another bullet. |
Grooch | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 01:54 pm     Disco is still very popular down here in Miami. My husband loves it, too. He should enjoy this show tonight. |
Hermione69 | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 01:57 pm     I remember "to do run run run to do run run." Or something like that. Was that disco? What about that car wash song? "Car wash, car wash, been working at the car wash." Was that disco? I am a sad, forlorn case. |
Fruitbat | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 02:02 pm     I like Disco too. I couldnt take a steady diet of it but is is great for dancing. |
Pagal | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 02:05 pm     When my daughter got married 5 years ago she specifically requested that the DJ not play any disco songs. Well he did and everyone, including my daughter had the best time dancing to the songs. YMCA was the best fun!! I think the DJ played the songs just to spite her! LOL |
Car54 | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 02:43 pm     Actually Bat, it is very funny that you say that. My college degree was in costume design and in my bohemian undergrad years, I made extra money designing pageant costumes for my neighbor who was a drag queen when he would compete at the local gay bars. His specialty was Ethel Merman tho, and she didn't sing much disco. Purr, I was thinking about Ricky's little hoppy dance and clapping when he said "Hercules, Hercules"...I think he would do a cute little YMCA dance. |
Fruitbat | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 02:51 pm     Ethel doing Disco, now there is a mental picture that is pure ipecac. |
Pamy | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 02:58 pm     I am dusting off my wedgies, putting on my pink satin jacket and yellow satin pants getting ready to boogie oogie oogie tonite!!!! |
Car54 | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 03:03 pm     Bat, this guy was very Harvey Fierstein. He used his dead mother's name as his stage name. Very interesting. I lived in a student apt above him. He was a hoot. All my theatre friends were gay and did the bar scene. For some reason I can't remember a lot of these songs tho. Oh...and I had a big perm afro and platform shoes. I think Corey will do good, Kim C, Ruben is definitely gonna do the Barry White thing (then he doesn't have to move). Clay will be cute, Julia will do good on this stuff...can't picture what Carmen or Josh will sing at all. |
Prisonerno6 | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 06:22 pm     Car, I was in high school and college in the 70's and about all I did was dance to those songs. I have fond memories through an alcoholic haze of Mr. C's in downtown State College Thursday nights, 3 drinks for a $5 cover... Gettin' down tonight... (do a little dance, make a little love...) |
