There was an awesome Brisbane band <a href="http://www.brispop.com.au/index.cfm?action=dsp_bio&artistID=108" rel="nofollow">Miles from Nowhere</a> (no longer with us) that used to drop commercials in between songs. <br /><br />I can remember them doing the classic 7-2-7 convenience store ad ("I forgot the coffee/I'm all out of shampoo/We're gonna have a party/And I've gotta clean my sandshoes" ... "There's onearoundthecorner from you").<br /><br />They also did the old Alma Park Zoo ad (that I can't remember now, but it was way better than their current one).Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02294039432980278397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7795390.post-22942279060195963462009-09-22T12:22:48.102+10:002009-09-22T12:22:48.102+10:00One of my FAVOURITE things to do before an impro s...One of my FAVOURITE things to do before an impro show is jam with folks doing 80's and 90's tv show themes. I'm sure we hit a bunch of the classics last time - including Perfect Strangers and the Family Ties theme (which I find gloriously horrible and fun). It's fun to watching a bunch of improvisers realise they all had the same dorky tv watching habits :)<br /><br />NPH lamented the loss of good TV show themes on the Emmys this year. <br /><br />My favourite TV show themes (sadly) are usually instrumentals: Magnum PI, The A-Team (unless the voiceover bit at the start counts), Simon and Simon, the old Battlestar Galactica. The theme to Hardcastle & McCormick was very Magnum PI-ish but with lyrics.Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02294039432980278397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7795390.post-72479411120411865782009-09-22T11:56:11.157+10:002009-09-22T11:56:11.157+10:00In answer to your question: I believe the rational...In answer to your question: I believe the rational argument is that because they are forged in the vilest pits of Hades, put through an intense vetting process of Evil mendacity which charts the intensity of the four Cs of Doom.; catchiness, cheesiness, and commonplace consistency, and finally spat out through the anus of the Goat Lord of Darkness Cthnakrull in a pandemonium of bloodied monkey feet and soiled virgins, all leads them to be stuck in our heads until our dying die. <br /><br />This is why, seemingly inexplicably, the parting words of many our of fellow human beings are often, “there’s never been a better time......!! *ugh*”Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7795390.post-83765019983715620082009-09-22T11:29:13.994+10:002009-09-22T11:29:13.994+10:00Dr Yobbo - Yeah, it turns out Saget was totally ca...Dr Yobbo - Yeah, it turns out Saget was totally cast for his boyish good looks, not for his savage stand-up. Have you seen "The Aristocrats"? A top view, but make sure the kiddies are far away when you watch it. ;)<br /><br />Jasper - ARGH! You just put CTM in my head FOR THE REST OF THE DAY. I guess I did bring up Urkel.<br /><br />Beeso - Hollowmen is good. Tru Blood is one of these series that it seems everyone in the world is watching except me. Somehow it's passed me.<br /><br />Dan - never watched "Mad About You"!<br /><br />And Anonymous - MUSHrooms! MUSHrooms! That is such a good example.

It was seriously the most profane thing I've ever heard. Talking about how he wanted to bang his costars (including Stamos) and saturation bombing the place with KRude's favourite F-bombs. Astonishing. And almost funny.Dr Yobbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10032085614743539793noreply@blogger.com
