Challenge Title (will and when)?

Post by Plat »

Forgive me if this is already addressed or implied, but I'm hoping someone can clarify:

1) Will there be a challenge title this year?

2) If so, will it be performed as part of our regular "set" (I'm assuming so), or all in a row at a different time?

Thanks!

I thoght it was agreed that the challenge title songs would be performed at a special "all-nude" set on the Santa Cruz boardwalk at 2am on Sunday morning.

Or did I just imagine that?

Wishful thinking on your part methinks ;-)

Well, with 15-20 minute sets, I'm already full up, so even if there is a challenge title, I won't be doing it live...

I think this was mentioned, but I'm too lazy to find where, though I don't remember if a decision was made. Last year we did all the live fight songs at the end of Saturday night.

Is that what we're doing for a 'livefight' then? With whatever title goes up on Monday?

Last hour on Saturday night is currently scheduled for live fight.

There will be a uniform stage set-up to the extent possible, to keep it flowing. It will the title that goes up on Monday.

Challenge title: ALL TAN

C'mon! - you can't tell me that isn't a title that is just begging to be performed nude!

I know our American cousins can be a tad conservative - but surely in this day-and-age, the sight of an attractively fit (if not slightly portly), sweating, middle-aged man, doing a bit of "blue" work would be viewed as a highly arousing piece of performance art, wouldn't it?

Or would I just be deported for lewd behaviour? Again. (Is "wardrobe malfunction" still a valid defence for that charge?)
