Hey does anyone have a copy or will anyone bring a copy of camp hit "the stripper" by man2man. Or "Walk the Dinosaur" can't remember who did that one.
thanks

It was Was Not Was

They also did a version of "Papa was a rolling stone" as far as I remember.

 

[george mcfly]

think that might have been 'was not was', frighteningly enough i think i have that at home

likewise for 'hip to be square' by huey lewis and the news!!

 

[Stuart Little]

I had that breakdance album with herbie hancock 'rockit' and 'tour de france' on it, and the instructional poster.

"Walk The Dinosaur" was by Was (Not Was)

it went something like this....

ahem,


Boom boom acka-lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka-lacka boom boom
Boom boom acka-lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka-lacka boom boom


....and stuff

 

[pete]

"open the door

[chriths]

[Stuart Little]

[color=000033]Okay. Chrith definitely has to bring the mic. I want to hear Rothko's rendition of everything.[/color]

 

[chriths]

ha ha!

defo, dude.

rothko can use beachball mike's head as a set of bongos while making his mouth songs. that would make me laff.

 

[rothko]

Chrith (24 Jan, 2002 05:02 p.m.):

I'd better bring me 7" Superman 'Version Disco' (french)
side a: theme tune (disco version)
sibe b: love song (for rothko's slow set)

 

[Stuart Little]

roll up, roll up

Right.

I'm off with Chrith to buy raffle prizes.

Don't get your hopes up tho.

Or do. I dunno.

[1]Little over 24 hours to go[/1]

 

[Stephen]

how come no-one remembers the lyrics to the stripper?

Such classics as:
In hot cop drag
In leather man sag(I think)
Tips in my g-string is how I make my living

And
Hey lolita! Touch me! Squeeze!
Oh! Ah!

(shaking head in wonder) genius.

 

[cyclotron]

Will the music be made of the kind of residue that Irish youth were splattered with from the bowels of "MT-USA " era RTE 2 ?? Ok, I'm going anyway, just make sure you play some Philomena Begley or Gina Delhaze and the Champions, by the crikey......

 

[Anne OMalley]

Eighties, schmeighties. I want to hear some classics from the showband era - Big Tom and the Mainliners, dat type'a'ting. Or Linda Martin and Chips, esp. their first album "And A Battered Sausage".

Actually, is anybody bringing any GOOD music? I wouldn't mind hearing a few GOOD tunes to get me nice and oiled up before I'm so drunk I try and cop off with me pint of Smithwicks.

(Did that make any sense? I don't think that made any sense.)

Looking forward to hearing some GOOD tunes.

[pete]

well now me personally, i'm hoping for a smattering of CKR Community Radio's greatest hits, followed by some Treble T-R moments ("Dropkick me jesus", "Daddy's Girl", the "i was that soldier" song etc)....

 

[krystal]

Pete don't joke. I am all too conversant with the ways of Treble T R - my da is *bad* C&W obsessed. For years I was convinced that the lyrics to ruby were actually '400 hundred children and a crop in the fields' instead of the far less interesting '4 hungry children and a crop in the fields'. And shit, I was home last night, didn't occur to me to rob a few Johnny McEvoy lps while I was at it..

 

[pete]

ok so

I'm going to print off the nametags* today... it's probably a waste of time doing all 547, but watcha gonna do?

I'm thinking of sticking with the old reliable "HELLO. My Name Is" but if anyone has any better suggestions let me know quick smart.
