Going as Gregory to the London gigs
Posted by: SonicDreamer ()
Date: November 17, 2012 23:05

Sitting listening to the Sex Pistol's remastered Never Mind The Bollocks this evening, I had the rather off-the-wall idea of going to one of the London shows with proper Gregory face make-up, but don't know any professional make-up artists and don't wanna spends a fortune on it. Can anyone in London help out?

And.. I am serious.

Cheers,
SonicD

Ha ha ha, as you well know Pauly, I never touch alcohol so that excuse is gone. At first I loathed that gorilla image, but as I was the first person on IORR to suggest the name Gregory and this ended up being his name, I feel kinda connected to the beast. Besides it could be fun just to see peoples' reactions, ya know stir things up a bit.

Cheers,
SonicD

Hey look, Beast and I did the swingin' palm tree thing in 2006, it seems only fair that you make an equal spectacle of yourself in 2012 and do the gorilla suit thing, be fair now !! You are in an A block after all !!

Go for it!! Maybe it'll earn you some perks (entrance to the pit??). Keith took it in good humour when paulywaul and I waved the palms at him down at the B stage in Atlantic City. He bent down laughing and placed his pick in my hand for my troubles.

Yes, I've never forgiven Keith for that, SHE got the pick and I subsequently got my palm tree confiscated by the security around the B stage (OK I admit - I did throw it at Keith) .... but the same security guard did actually return it to me in due course !! Phew !!

An ape suit will be too bloody hot!!! Going back to the case in point, any of you know a professional make-up person? I was thinking of contacting LD Communications and asking if they can help out?

I have a pic of us with those palm trees, they were fun at Hampden Park!

Cheers,

SD, we are not concerned about your welfare inside the suit, t'is you that needs to be concerned about keeping the rest of us outside the suit suitably amused !! I think it's a sacrifice you should be prepared to make, and apart from anything, EVERYONE needs to make a statement once in awhile !! This is YOUR moment ..... winking smiley

While we're at it, why don't we all dress up as monkeys and parade in behind a IORR barrel?

Would love to see that!

But, anyway, yes, go for the Gorilla suit !

So I missed that Gregory name thingy, did whoever's in charge of the Stones' FB page really get Gregory here ?!

LOL, wonders if you can get air conditioned gorilla suits. Umm, I would think it is sheer coincidence they also opted for Gregory.

Even Denzil the Dragon has more class than Gregory the Gorilla.

Reviewing Gorilla gear today, make-up option looks like a long-shot.

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

If anyone knows where to get animal sound files I could load on to an iPhone, it would be great. I wanna be able to go GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR in situ.

Just goggle it on the internet, there are tons of free files. This has a bunch of sites:

Please make sure you have someone take pictures/video of you, we all want to see how it turned out.

Good luck and have a blast!
