Shuttlecock XXV: Cool Hats Club

[mikal]

That sounds really cool!

Two things, I was fucking around avoiding work, looking at old U2 setlists, and saw Sweet Caroline was one of the Edge karaoke tracks on Popmart. This looks like lots of fun, I wouldn't hate it if they brought this back, it's a cool idea. Anyone have memories of that segment?



Also, I had a chuckle looking at sets of shows that obviously played in the rain, because there's 150 snippets of Rain, Can't Stand the Rain and Singin' in the Rain, and it reminded me of old times here, where we'd make up setlists and see how many times we could put Rain snippets in. Good times. (Strangely though, they've never snippeted Have You Ever Seen the Rain)

They did Daydream Believer at the door I saw in Madison. At first everyone collectively said “WTF” but by about 2 minutes in, everyone was singing along. Such a cool show.

There's a kite blowin outta control on breeze
There's a new show on AppleTV+ for you
Starring my daughter named Eve"

Let me be clear.
Bono's daughter is very funny and charming on this new Apple TV show.

Isn't Memphis Eve a bit long in the tooth for you these days?

Haha absolutely not. She's great. Have you seen the show?

Sheila Descends into Bendigo for a Can of Foster's/Smokova 1

I'm disappointed in this one though. I imagine you googled Melbourne and looked for a major-ish city somewhere nearby, I'll be very impressed if you knew Bendigo. And no one in this country drinks Fosters. It's not on tap at any pub anywhere in the country. It's sold in some bottle-os but by and large they sit in the corner gathering dust.

i know bendigo from rick and morty.

How the hell do they know about it.

Was looking at a list of Aussie slang words and apparently they call Christmas “Chrissie”.

Not a real country.
