ozarkbugler Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Only speculation can occur until either Hopkins or the Singing Parrot make an official announcement. Until then, I personally am no longer interested in this thread. Well, if it is the parrot will it be screaming in the middle of the announcement?

TerriTroop Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 This just in.... George Hopkins has announced that he is expanding the horizons on both the electric keyboard and vocals for the TOC shows. He has just secured two TV stars for next years performances!!!! Mr. Butters the Dog and the Parrot singing "Take on Me" in the new Geico Insurance TV commercial. That's not a parrot! She clearly states it a cockatoo, and cockatoos are bad, bad singers! (as demonstrated in the video, obviously) Mr. Butters has much more talent, but will he be able to handle all of the negativity thrown at him for being in a drum corps using so much synth? He looks like he might cower at the prospect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
byline Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 I miss out on so much current event/cultural humor because we don't have dish or cable and watch very little of anything at all, even on netflix/hulu. Now I'm forced to go to that video website not to be named! I hear ya. We have basic cable, but only watch a few shows regularly, and then hubby has his brain pudding that he channel-surfs through. So I find I'm getting fewer and fewer of the current cultural references. I feel so old! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Boo Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 They are not part of the Pearl Harbor show but part of the TOC entertainment. Oh...duh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Don-O Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 The question is how long will it take Mr. Butters to learn to fly a Sopwith Camel and for the cockatoo to learn to fly upside down. That's some serious GE right there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Butters does have a sensitive side, but unlike his name, he will not melt when faced with criticism. (however, he does melt the hearts of his groupies like butter, ergo his stage name).

Make that a P51 Mustang instead of a Sopwith Camel and there is the incorporation into the Pearl Harbor show Boo was asking about!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrunchyTenor Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Make that a P51 Mustang instead of a Sopwith Camel and there is the incorporation into the Pearl Harbor show Boo was asking about!!! There were no P-51's, nor were there any Sopwith Camels at Pearl. There were, however, some P-40 Warhawks. Didn't you see the movie? Sheesh!

SFZFAN Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Did I somehow miss the role of parrots in the attack on Pearl Harbor? Whatever you do don't mention waffles or this thread is doomed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
