The crowd are going berserk!

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Sun Apr 10, 2022 7:38 pm

It is over.

It was a remorseless wall of noise and overly-familiar chord sequences and sounds.

Now to look back at the thread and see what everyone else made of it. Excited

Blimey!

That was exhausting.

I shall give it 2 stars, purely for its ability to wear down the hardiest of souls.

My ears are still ringing after that. Well, it was pretty much as I expected - though not quite as camp. The crowd noise is a bit off putting at times and the songs too long, but it's a boogie flap of fun and frolics just about within the very fringe of what I'd choose to listen to.

3/5

It was an relentless, chaotic and frankly shameless mash-up of genres and elements and gimmicks that blurred into a spin cycle of homogeneousnessness after about one song.

Still, it was hard to dislike.

I shall do this, shorty.

Shortly.

Glam!

It's a bit musical theatre.

Stompin'

by SiberianPrincess’sMidriff Sun Apr 17, 2022 7:11 pm

Sounds familiar the basic riff, lot of noise not much song as such. S'alright.

by SiberianPrincess’sMidriff Sun Apr 17, 2022 7:13 pm

Track 2: Get Dancin'

Not without it's charm, but…

by SiberianPrincess’sMidriff Sun Apr 17, 2022 7:16 pm

Stomp is back!

by SiberianPrincess’sMidriff Sun Apr 17, 2022 7:17 pm

Muppet chorus is back.

by SiberianPrincess’sMidriff Sun Apr 17, 2022 7:18 pm

Is the original of this riff/tune?

I'm guessing not.

Track 3: Shirley Wood

I'm going to love it!

Shirley Wood is South Birimingham isn't it?

by SiberianPrincess’sMidriff Sun Apr 17, 2022 7:18 pm

Deep voice.

by SiberianPrincess’sMidriff Sun Apr 17, 2022 7:18 pm

Oh, it's a Shirley Would do something joke.
