or if you do get one as a pressie, is it rewrapped and passed on to some other poor soul.

grabman · Post by **grabman** » Saturday Jan 22, 2005 4:09 pm

before you pass it on at least burn a copy so can can hide it at the bacl of the cd collection to be pulled out at 2am when everyone is well bevvied up and ready to sing

Just as we get beer goggles, do we also get beer earphones that change how we appreciate what we are listening to when we are bevvied up?

I'd say we must, there's no way on earth I'd get involved in karoake when sober, but some girl i know talked me into it the other night at the pub after way to many sherbets!! Made a right fool of myself! (again)

Yeah, I fricken love giving the vocal chords a workout after a few cans. Just ask my mates that were at my 35th b'day at the Elvis Pizzeria in Rushcutters Bay. I wooed them all with pitch perfect rendition of "Are you lonesome tonight". Pity I'd lost my voice from shouting all night. Didn't stop me though.

If you're a fan of the King (who isn't) and want a top, alcohol soaked night out, I'd thoroughly recommend it.

now that's a tragic list if ever I saw one!

some real "classics" in there

Can you really beat Kevin Bloody Wilson's Kev's Courtin' Song for a song to drink to.

I won't post the lyrics here, because there are more F-words in them than you can poke a stick at. But check out http://www.lyricsdownload.com/kevin-blo ... yrics.html

And I just discovered that there's a Kevin Bloody Wilson internet radio station. What more is there in life?

See http://kevin.bloody.wilson.com.au/

Cheers,

grabman · Post by **grabman** » Sunday Jan 23, 2005 5:45 pm

Oliver, now there's a radio station for the whole family!!!!

Enjoying listening as I type, with a couple of cold brews of course.

Funnily enough I whacked on a CD of Kev on the way back from the Parkes Elvis Festival. Yep, he's still a funny c@#t !

Strike me dead,

I forgot a few.

Barrets Privateers, There is a good as song for quaffing as any.

"Tie me kangaroo down", Used to lyrics like "Stick your dink in a Mink" and "lick the box of an Ox"sang every Saturday at Peddlars Pub Halifax, followed by "New York, New York" written by Mr Blue Eyes and then a recorded version of Don McLeans "American Pie" This all occurs between 1630 and 1515 with a copious consumption of beer

The boys and I always get out a copy of Rodney Rude late at night around a good fire when we've all had a few. Bloody hilarious. You just try and stop everyone repeating all the jokes (and f***ing them up royally) as we listen.
I'm with Clintc9, the first beer songs was the best. I think it was played at every party/piss up I went to in high school.

Maybe I'm old but, Hate Rodney rude, love Kev Wilson, RR tells old jokes and says the "F" word a lot for no real reason, Kev Wilson writes and sings some very clever lyrics, and he has a half reasonable band to go with it.( For that sort of music of course.) He can still swear as good as anyone, bit he does it with a bit of class! Well that's my opinion and I'm sticking to it.
