h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Err.. Captain Pierce sir? I was wondering if you had heard of a band called "blindside"... Well?

crosses out prefect and writes "PERFECT"

Nope, first mate, can't say that I have. I know they are a swedish techno band of some sorts who claim to be very very christian, but I have never heard their music, so...

Why do you ask? Are they touring this ship?

hi captain
if we're having live bands on the ship now can i reccommend sum 41?
they're very good
i'm going to see them in november but any other appearances would be cool too.
anyway justa suggestion... hehe!

Perhaps if you're looking for music you could ask Girt Big Heifer- (hmm, I wonder how he knows about that ), just stick GIRT into the h2g2 search, it'll be there

arrr

May I suggest...

Manuel and his magical music of the mountains?

They are a small band of touring fieldmice, who play soothing string arrangements of favourites such as "The Cocacabana" and "Agadoo"..

Perfect for easing away the stresses and strains all pirates feel after a hard day's work...

So when are we going to see some action?

Mr P does that mean you prefer DM's crossbow to mine? I don't want to start a quarrel (a pun if you know stuff about archery, or not, or care even) but mine does have titanium plating and laser sights.

I shall quite understand as DM is totally beautiful and a friend whereas I am only gorgeous.

*stuffs crossbow back in to right knick-knack pocket*

I've never heard of ANY of those bands.

If you'd allow one more on board,
we might import the of a great
bandleader like Guy Lombardo, or Lawrence
Welk (sigh, your reaction to either would
probably be , but maybe they have
fans on this ship. You never know), Tommy
Dorsey, Cab Calloway, Louis Armstrong, Ella
Fitzgerald (yes, Ella had her own band).
Yes, I'm a traditionalist, but what can you do?

Cab Calloway, wasn't he in the Blues Brothers film?

Yes, I think Calloway was, along with
Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin, and a host
of others.
Heighdy heighdy heighdy hi,
Heighdy heighdy heighdy ho!

Well Captain, I've only heard Blindside on my new P.O.D. album... A guy named Christian Aniskog(?) provides background vocals to one song. Sum 41 are pretty cool, Miss DM, have fun! Miss Caerwynn, who says I can't use two crossbows at once?

Ahoy!!!!! Avast ye' land lubbers!!!! Pirate ship on the horizon!!!
Looks to be 'RED SAILS'!!! What Capt'. would have 'red' sails? Don't they know the sails will go pink in this Sea air?

*yells up to T.A.A.Joe.* 'Ow's it hangn' Joe? Can you see what's on the flag of yonder ship???*gets an idea...posts on memo board:REWARD: needed -one archer...must be able to shoot arrows in the order of a spiral staircase so Joe can climb down. Will pay by the arrow.~Pandora~

*posts: ship yonder!!!~Pandora~

ah caerwynn you flatter me!
i'm sure both crossbows are as fine as each other though your laser sight does sound verry interesting indeed....
hmm another ship perhaps a chance to show off my expertise with the longsword!

Perhaps Tinker Bell is in the vicinity,
and can spare some pixie dust for Joe.
And Joe will have to think wonderful thoughts
(The pixie dust can't do it all ).

Or, find some marine rope, and throw it up to
Joe. He can tie one end to the Crow's Nest,
and climb down it.

Or, failing that, there may be parachutes
in the hold, left over from the days when this
ship belonged to Baron Munchhausen, and was
regularly being flown to the Moon and other
places.

Red sails? Where? ::Looks:: Oh there.... Hmm.... Nope no flag I see... Oh wait there it is.... No I take it back.... They just have someone hanging from the top of the mast.... Neat!
::digs around in his pockets and finds a long enough rope::
AH-HA!
::climbs down::

*Dreams of the totally beautiful DM, the gorgeous Caerwynn and the stunning Pandora whilst humming an old tune to himself: "Red sails in the Sunset"*

Paul H: Cab Calloway was great, but Ella was greater - and King Louis of course was the greatest ever!

But I like lots of other kinds of music too. Like Ray Charles and Aretha and Van Morrison, and Roger Waters and Bob Dylan and Neil Young and Johan Sebastian Bach and Georg Philip Telemann ... and... and...

*Pierce has always had such great taste in ladies*

JOE!!!! You're down!!!! YAY!! *whispers:meet me at the bow at dusk* Good to see you down and around!

*goes to memo board...posts: Archer no longer need, ditto the carpenter...stilll looking for shirt~Pandora

*posts: warning!!! ship heading our way keep an .-) out for the red sails! Have cannons, cream pies, etc. at ready!~Pandora

*returns to memo borad...posts: Moody tart seeks, kind considerate guy for love-hate relationship.~Pandora~

Well, Pandora, if this turns out to be a false alarm,
the cannons will of course keep until the next time
they are really needed. The cream pies, however,
will not keep forever. So, if they don't get used soon,
may I help to dispose of them?

Naturally And in YOUR own best interest...I shall help. I'd never leave a shipmate hanging*remembers poor Joe...dismisses the thought as he's found his way down*
Mmmmmm...yummy! *puts one off to the side in case of battle*
