Frenzy News - Predators Jazzed up with acquisition of BOO!
It's Boo Time for the defending champion Predators!
Hamburg, NY by Rhett Zoan for the AP The Predators recent splash in the UFA market for TE Boo Williams has the team all jazzed up for the 2004 season... Boo has been brought in by the team to replace the now retired Shannon Sharpe. Predators GM Mike SantaLucia had this to say about his latest acquisition. "I'm VERY high on Boo, we feel that after Shannon retired, Boo was far and away the top TE available, and were willing to make a substantial investment to acquire his services." The team appears excited to be hooking up Boo with their big off-season acquisition of QB Aaron Brooks. "There's a chemistry that's been building between the two of them, their familiarity and confidence with each other was a key factor in bringing Boo in" said SantaLucia "we feel they will both play integral roles in the defense of our championship title." Hmm, I hear the tone of a confident GM... it certainly seems the team is jazzed up with the signing, as all around team HQ's a jazz tune by the now defunct band Moxy Fruvous can be heard playing again, and again and again... it goes something like this... Boo Time (Jazz version - from the 1997 Moxy Fruvous fall tour) Moxy Fruvous consists of: Mike Ford (guitar, percussion, piano), Murray Foster (bass), Jian Ghomeshi (drums, percussion, tin whistle), and Dave Matheson (guitar, accordian, piano) further info on the band can be found at http://www.fruvous.com [This version of the song usually begins with the guys all donning derby hats, except for Mike, who's wearing a fedora. The guys all snap their fingers to the beat, getting the audience to join in. Murray starts the bass line.] [Sometimes, Mike will just talk for a bit during the bass intro.] [Mike makes various strange animal noises, most prominently a hoot owl. Mike will do a call and response with the audience using these sounds and whatever lines he makes up on the spot.] (Mike) I hear a hoot owl... [What Mike sings here varies greatly.] (Mike) It's Boo Time It's Boo Time (Mike on Lead) When every wanker's wound up tight, frigid, fractious, and forthright, the plebes plugged up with plebiscite, Trim the trad, go troglodyte (Mike) It's Boo Time (All) Boo Time (Mike) (It's) Boo Time (Mike) When obligations grow obtuse, New neckties nab you like a noose, The clown, the cleric, the recluse All crank the sluice on their caboose. (All) Something that you buried, way down the estuary, Sharp and incendiary, locked in a box of lead I said. (Bass and keyboard solo) (Mike and Dave call and response) [This usually consists of various scat lines, that Mike sings and Dave repeats.] (Mike and audience call and response) [This usually consists of various scat lines, followed by animal noises, and whatever else Mike feels like saying.] (Mike's final improv line (repeated 4x)) [This is almost always something specific about the town or venue that they're playing in at the time.] (All) Something that you buried, way down the estuary, Sharp and incendiary, locked in a box of lead I said. (Dave) Well, it's not forbidden to be what you are. Dip into that great big cookie jar. (Mike) where it's always Boo Time (All) Boo Time (Mike) (It's) Boo Time (All) Boo Time (Mike) (It's always) (I said it's) Boo Time (All) Boo Time (Mike scat solo) (Mike) It's boo, it's boo, it's boo! [The guys pretend to finish the song, wait a few seconds, then end with a powerful instrumental outro] |
