Pink smoke, blue lazers?

Blue smoke, pink lazers?

 

[Crispy]

white smoke. one pink eye, one blue, but they'd have to be LEDs.

(cheap) lasers only come in a couple of colours, neither of which are pink or blue.

 

[Onket]

I once, when I was about 15, soaked a smoke bomb in red food colouring with the aim of taking it to the football.

Ended up lighting it in the back garden to test it. It didn't really work.

 

[vornstyle76]

I'll just set fire to the whole thing at my last match before getting priced out of London.

 

[Brixton Hatter]

I'll be there Saturday, hopefully with Dad Hatter in tow for his first Hamlet experience

Sorry I couldn't make it on Monday el-ahrairah , Ms Hatter finished her course after 6 years so I had to do the honours by making the tea

 

[magneze]

Who's going to the match on Saturday?

Yep

 

[Monkeygrinder's Organ]

Yep

See you round about half time then?

See you round about half time then?

I'll be sure to pop to the bar for the goals too.

 

[not-bono-ever]

One of the younger lads sometimes borrows a drum and it certainly hasn't drowned us out and we didn't wait for its lead. Talking of sonic doping, I did think that whilst the PA is screwed it'd be quite amusing to use a big megaphone to do very partisan goal scorer and substitution announcements.

I do think at least part of the problem with goal music is they always seem to use irritatingly catchy tunes that could just so easily be on a car advert, i.e. 'Song 2' by Blur or that da-da-da da-da-da '00s indie tune. I'd love to one day visit a club that had something truly bizarre, say, off the top of my head, 'Do The Mussolini (Headkick)' by Cabaret Voltaire or whatever.

Too much talk of what we can't do here. More of the can do please. They told me I couldn't make a Voodoo Stick. They said it wasn't possible. Ha! My own mother, she was on her knees, begging me, "Please don't do it, Vaughan!" with tears in her eyes. "You'll unleash untold misery by channelling the spirit of Edgar Kail through a papier-mâché mask and a couple of feather boas!" NO MOTHER, I SHALL NOT LISTEN TO YOU ANYMORE.

Excellent. Whereabouts? (so we know where they survive rather than getting ripped down within a day)

I guess I could go out of my way to put them up outside Peckham's semi-hidden underwhelming art galleries but I reckon it'd be a waste of posters and sticky tape. Contrary to the picture the Evening Standard tries to paint Peckham's hardly full of Richard Florida's creative class.

 

[vornstyle76]

Speaking of the creative class and its immiseration through free labour... This one's far too late to get printed up, alas, so here's the e-poster:

Yes enemies of football still up on Lordship lane this morning CMHT office.

Rob's Poster looks great (as was the goal)

somebody needs to write up song sheets/books for DHFC

A few have been posted here - I'll stick them up on Brixton Buzz and spread the word. If anyone wants to add a few more today, I'll post the lot up tomorrow, ready for Saturday.

 

[editor]

I've got about 12 ready to go! Will post later.

It might be an idea to put all the posters together somewhere on BBuzz?

 

[editor]

The songbook is up!

Some bod at man city wrote a really interesting article about when and for how long songs were sung - by recording times over 10 games

certain songs were sung at the beginning others after goals others after going behind and some towards the end of the game

I know Liverppol only sing "Youll never walk alone" at a certain pont - similar at celtic

At Dulwich Edgar Kail song seems to be sung early on in the game, Tuscany if were winning,Erhan Oztumer’s Song when he does something special

 

[PartisanDulwich]

Egar Kail song is based upon an old hymn , very popular amongst afro Caribbean population locally "Give me oil in my lamp" also as the "Hosanna" song

Give me oil in my lamp keep me burning
Give me oil in my lamp, I pray,
Give my oil in my lamp, keep me burning,
Keep me burning 'till the end of day.

Sing hosanna, sing hosanna,
Sing hosanna to the King of kings!
Sing hosanna, sing hosanna,
Sing hosanna to the King!



love this version by Eric Monty Morris circa hit in Jamaica in 1964

[PartisanDulwich]

same song differnt words

Give Me Joy In My Heart Hymn

Give me joy in my heart, keep me praising,
Give me joy in my heart, I pray,
Give me joy in my heart, keep me praising,
Keep me praising 'till the break of day.

Sing hosanna, sing hosanna,
Sing hosanna to the King of kings!
Sing hosanna, sing hosanna,
Sing hosanna to the King.

Obviously the earlier Give me oil in my lamp was a warning to the future about Energy privatisation

And "number eighty seven is Ellis Green" when the opposition keeper is looking too sane.

Great looking new kit ruined only by the mocking reminder most of us will be priced out of London...

I like it. Any other pictures?

Nah, not that I've seen. Presume tomorrow will be its debut.

It is rather lovely. With the last kit you were able to request sponsorless ones when putting in an order, as I did, hopefully will be the case with this one.

I'd like to do the same. Wouldn't want 'Wankworth' (sorry, Winkworth) souring my pink n blue torso.

At least its not FOXTONS
