Tony Kelly Poetry competition

[Anonymous]

I propose a poetry competition in honour of inaugural GD of the year and all round nice guy Tony Kelly. Ill award a prize (probably a pint at the next shindig), so get writing :)

(and here’s one to start us off…)

There once was a man called Tony
whose fingers were long and bony.
For he clattered away
on the keyboard all day
For he was the GD, not a phoney!

Fantastic – Tony is up for it…

lucky I have a Dutch friend over at the moment..they come up with songs for every event….I’ll see what I can do!!

Aphra.

[Aphra K]

actually Tony…in terms of music is there any particular style I should be looking towards…heavy metal is out to start with….but I could stretch to jazz, folk, pop, indie/grunge,

I think this might have to be performed on the ‘Trip to Torc’

Aphra..

am now living in fear!

my karaoke career ended years ago when i got to fulfill my lifelong ambition of ‘performing’ Tammy Wynnette’s Stand by Your Man

[Anonymous]

When is the “Trip to Torc” BTW? Can’t wait for that song Tony ;)

[Anonymous]

Aphra: Something along the lines of 80s Hair/Glam Metal would be right up Tony’s street.

any specific examples…..I don’t think I have any of that in my music collection..eclectic as it is..

Aphra.

[Anonymous]

Early Def Leppard, Kiss, Scorpions etc…you know.. the type where yor music was rated on how high your perm went…

Dave

[Aphra K]

as long as I don’t have to dress like that!

I think I’ll have to round up a few more volunteers for the harmonies and tight jeans…the mind boggles..

Can’t wait for that song Tony[/quote:d524a68376]and pigs might fly!

Kiss[/quote:d524a68376]mother of god, Dave! is THAT what you think of me?!! Or is this revenge for me guffawing at your ‘Michael Flatley sliding across the floor on his knees’ impression at the last Torc party, eh?!

In the immortal words of Stewie from Family Guy – “I like you. When I take over the world your death shall be quick and painless”

Tony,

I started a poetry competition in your honour! Aphra has promised to write a song for you! Grifmike wrote a Homer-esque Odyssey of your exploits! How can you even think to suggest that we have anything but the greatest of respect for anything you stand for, especially make-up and music combined!

I’ll say it again, Dave:
