Subject: RE: BS: Vuvuzelas From: bubblyrat Date: 19 Jun 10 - 11:28 AM Why haven't the French supporters all been playing Bombardes ?? THAT would drown out the plastic trumpets !! |
Subject: RE: BS: Vuvuzelas From: gnu Date: 19 Jun 10 - 12:05 PM If Scotland.... I shudder to even think of it (and I like the pipes). |
Subject: RE: BS: Vuvuzelas From: Little Hawk Date: 19 Jun 10 - 01:56 PM I like the bagpipes too, but you don't want a whole bunch of them playing stuff haphazardly and all at the same time... Come to think of it, I don't think you want that with any instruments. ;-) How about the Alpenhorn? A few thousand of those going all at once would be quite memorable. |
Subject: RE: BS: Vuvuzelas From: gnu Date: 19 Jun 10 - 02:17 PM At least vuvuzelas are better than the incessant drumming. |
Subject: RE: BS: Vuvuzelas From: gnu Date: 19 Jun 10 - 02:23 PM The game game starts soon... surely now all hopes have been dashed by Cameroon/Denmark in the final ninety minutes. Nothing short a of a miracle goal by Cameroon/Denmark could turn this game into a glimmer of a hope of going through... Yeah, I can mute that shite along with the vuvuzelas. |
Subject: RE: BS: Vuvuzelas From: Bonzo3legs Date: 19 Jun 10 - 05:02 PM I've never heard such a hideous racket in my life. Should I ever feel inclined to watch any world cup matches, it will be with the sound turned down. Argentina v England seems a remote possibility. |

Subject: RE: BS: Vuvuzelas From: Little Hawk Date: 19 Jun 10 - 11:36 PM I'm betting on Liechtenstein to go all the way this time. Never underestimate "The Sleeping Croissant". |
Subject: RE: BS: Vuvuzelas From: Edthefolkie Date: 20 Jun 10 - 11:44 AM Good point by Bubblyrat re bombardes to support Les Bleus. They could be made of plastic and called Lavieonbleuzas. |
Subject: RE: BS: Vuvuzelas From: gnu Date: 20 Jun 10 - 12:46 PM Edthefolkie... hahahaa |

Subject: RE: BS: Vuvuzelas From: GUEST,leeneia Date: 21 Jun 10 - 10:07 AM The Consumer Reports site (consumerreports.org) has a video on how to adjust the sound of a digital TV in order to make vuvuzelas less irritating. Sorry, I don't have the link. |
Subject: RE: BS: Vuvuzelas From: GUEST,Seaking at Sea Date: 21 Jun 10 - 10:37 AM None of this as irritating as that loud strange noise that seemed to follow most shots played in the US Golf Open. "INTHEHOLE...." Maybe where they should stick the Vuvuzelas ! Chris |

Subject: RE: BS: Vuvuzelas From: greg stephens Date: 21 Jun 10 - 07:34 PM You lot think you are worried? I've just been to the English Country Music Weekend, huge room full of people playing D/G melodeons. |

Subject: RE: BS: Vuvuzelas From: Donuel Date: 23 Jun 10 - 10:08 AM I have invented the Vulvazala which uses the same trupet like principles , but its form is far more erotic right down to the mouthpiece. |
Subject: RE: BS: Vuvuzelas From: Roger the Skiffler Date: 24 Jun 10 - 06:27 AM When UK get knocked out (pretty soon, I expect) the ones on sale in UK supermarkets will be sold off cheaply. Kazoo maestros can then get one and do serious damage! RtS (cackling insanely) |
Subject: RE: BS: Vuvuzelas From: catspaw49 Date: 24 Jun 10 - 07:07 AM Donnie, your "Vulvazala" is certainly interesting. Could you describe the sound it makes? Spaw |

Subject: RE: BS: Vuvuzelas From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 26 Jun 10 - 06:21 PM I picked up a cheap Vuivuzela in Lidls the other day. We've got a cat we thought was completely deaf. I sneaked up behind her and tried it, and she heard that all right. And I was ordered out of the house. ....................... Here's a match between a Vuvuzela and a Zurna, which is a sort of Turkish bombard. I reckon there could be an arms race ahead of us at football matches... |
Subject: RE: BS: Vuvuzelas From: Donuel Date: 26 Jun 10 - 06:28 PM it goes QUEEEEFF ! |
Subject: RE: BS: Vuvuzelas From: gnu Date: 26 Jun 10 - 06:29 PM The cat needen't be of hearing to react... the fur on her ass would pick up the sound wave vibrations. The hair on the back of my neck stands up from the vuvuzelas on the TV with the sound cranked way down. |

Subject: RE: BS: Vuvuzelas From: JHW Date: 28 Jun 10 - 08:27 AM The problem for me is not that vuvuzelas sound like bees, bees alas now sound like vuvuzelas |
Subject: RE: BS: Vuvuzelas From: GUEST,ibo Date: 28 Jun 10 - 02:32 PM is that what the buzz is,i thought it was flies around the england team |

Subject: RE: BS: Vuvuzelas From: Jack Campin Date: 30 Jun 10 - 06:08 AM What's the difference between T in the Park and a vuvuzela? One is a godawful monotonous racket that drones on and on and causing hearing damage. The other is a plastic trumpet: Vuvuzelas banned at T in the Park 2010 |
Subject: RE: BS: Vuvuzelas From: Micca Date: 30 Jun 10 - 06:50 AM A Colleaguue at work referred to them as Vulvazelas cos'it sounds like a bunch of c**ts playing a piece of tubing!! I don't think he liked them! |
Subject: RE: BS: Vuvuzelas From: gnu Date: 01 Sep 10 - 03:10 PM HOORAY! |
Subject: RE: BS: Vuvuzelas From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 01 Sep 10 - 05:29 PM "The magic of football consists of the two-way exchange of emotions between the pitch and the stands, where the public can transmit a full range of feelings to the players. That's a classic quote... |
