Team Rad Squad 5's awesomecore show
let me set this up
i got nominated for some male "beauty pageant" that my school holds annually for the senior class. and there were four portions casual. swim. talent. formal.
and for the talent i put together an awesomexcore band.
1) Do not plan a single thing about the music you are going to play, except that it's going to sound terrible.
2) You must have band members who have never played an instrument in their life before.
3) Habitually lie to the audience about your band.
4) If you "dishonor the awesomecore gods" by not playing to your full potential, you forfeit your instrument, and the singer summons an audience member to replace you.
5) End every single song by yelling "STOP! STOP DAMMIT!"
Team Rad Squad 5 consisted of:
me (guitar. vocals)
ray (bass. kazoo)
tony (electric drums that wernt plugged in)
miguel (microkorg)
so when we got on i started off with u2 - vertigo which had me counting off 1 2 3 14 in french. then roaring. then yelling hello hello. Hola? in the highest pitch i could. during this song my guitar became unplugged and remained this way throughout
then i talked to the audience about how we were a swedish metal band (this worked to my advantage because in my profile thing for the pageant i put something about me being swedish--which i am not). that led into my talking about how all they play in sweden is abba and ace of base. that led into a cover of abba's dancing queen. which consisted of my screaming watch that scene dancing queen over and over
then i dedicated the next song to all the americans in the audience and covered springsteen's born in the usa which had me screeming i was born in the usa. i said i was born in the usa while i began clapping my hands over my head.
then i talked about the other members of Team Rad Squad 5.
I introduced the drummer: let's hear it for our drummer Tony. He likes to collect stamps
Keys: that's miguel and he cant read
then i talked about one of my favourite shows growing up: Power Rangers. So we covered the theme song which had me yelling Go Go Power Rangers over and over.
then i took it down a notch and gave a history lesson about the german airforce divebombing england. then i came up with a new song that had me screaming divebomb divebomb luftwaffe luftwaffe
then as that song was ending i kicked over my amp and proceeded to do a guitar solo on my back ala Marty McFly in Back To The Future Part II. After rolling around i said I guess you guys arnt ready for that yet. But your kids are going to love it
my guitar afterwards
