Crowd Participation – What Should I Do, When Should I do It?

Riot_Rain

Even that could be a bad thing though. "You know what I saw today? The smallest willy ever!" or something along those lines...

Anyhew, back to topic: crowd participation. Er, yes. I'd gladly drink some wine every time Ed does, does that count?

I've seen Ed doing the cross thing with his arms when he sings Comatose. Does it every time! That's getting a bit too complicated for me though, singing and crossing my arms, pffff

at what point?

Just trying to keep the happy vibes and enthusiasm going....

Me and fraser have a few party tricks one of them is that we sing Elderly woman when we in the middle of no where and sturrgling with the elements... Up mountains... while we're freezing our bollocks off on a hill in prague etc...

We starts to scream "AHOJ" instead of hello, cos it means hello in Czech... I'd be up for tryint o get people to sing whatever the local word is for hello this summer...

Incidentally.. we tried to do an acoustic version of "It's okay" by dead moon in Czech before ed did it in Spanish - he can;t do anything original that man.

Elderly woman seems to be my internal jukebox song. Will be sat at my desk and find I'm bopping (can you bop to Elderly woman ) along to it (see sig.)

Still hoping for a Glasgow date .... "Mum am coming home for a couple of days ... don't expect to see much of me ..."

If you are serious about crowd participation, raise some middle fingers for every time Ed sings "fuck" or something of the sort (i.e. in Jeremy).

Also, its imperative that you block your face for McCready-Crotch-Lasers

That is all.

At a PJ show i think i'll be participating to EVERY song!

And i still think Ed's reaction to being flashed is the funniest thing i've ever seen.

I know during Jeremy when Ed sings “arms raised in a V “I should raise both my arms in a V. Got that one.

I know I need to study up on the lyrics to Daughter and Better Man so I won’t be the only one not singing.



A List

---

Study up on the lyrics to Better Man, Black, Daughter and Elderly Women.

Alive: towards the end of the song raise one arm, clinch your fist, thrust it forward to the beat and yell “yeah” with each thrust.

Black: as the song is ending sing the “doo da doo doo da da doo” like the record.

Comatose: doing the cross thing with your arms (at what point?)

Do The Evolution: Ed sings “I sing in the choir” raise your hands and sing the “hallelujah, hallelujah” chorus.

Elderly Women: Ed sings “I just want to scream” we scream “hello.”

Jeremy: Ed sings “lemon yellow sun” raise your arms to form a sun.

Jeremy: Ed sings “arms raised in a V “we raise both arms in a V.

Jeremy: Ed sings” seemed a harmless little” we raise both middle fingers and scream “fuck.”

Who Go: sing the chorus “Why go home?”


What else am I missing?


Thanks for your help, edwho

Man, reading this list makes me so excited to see them again LOL. I would add raising your hands during "Wishlist" too, at the "hands upraisied and open..." part. I always do that, and of course yelling "yeah" during Evenflow, although I think that goes without saying LOL. I don't know what to tell ya, it just kinda comes to you when you're there LOL. I love this band

He seems to do it on his left hand side (right hand side for the viewers at home), left arm vertical, right hand horizontal.

To be precise.

Does everyone get this?

Should we do it?

I'm doing it right now

Don't forget to reach out and try to grab the band during Breath (figuratively, of course :P). During the "all these reaching hands" line.

And in "Go" -- "suppose i abused you, just passing it on, go...FUCK..."
And in "Not For You" -- "this is not for you, FUCK YOUUUUUUU"
And in "Why Go" -- "she's been diagnosed, by some stupid FUCK"

I'm sure some others will come to mind.
