| Post subject: | Doing "Too Many Knives" at Talent Show, Need Help |
As you can read, I'm doing the new classic, "Too Many Knives" at the Talent Show (for those who don't know, see An Important Rap Song). I need help on how to do it (movements, costume, etc.). I have the voice, but I'm not sure about the other stuff, & I need the help before 2/26/09. |

You need the shades and the green shirt with "CRACK" on the pocket. And also paint some brown on your face in the shape of his unshavenness. What're you doing for his crew cut? As for props, you'd probably need some background dancers to move stuff around. Sounds like fun!

I'm black (more of brown), so the brown paint won't help at all 3. I already have short hair (really short), so the crew cut may not happen. 4. I can try to find some shades somewhere in my house or buy some. 5. Thanks for your support. Anymore ideas? |

Totally! If you make some cardboard cutouts of the important things like the bonfire and the volleyball net that are easy to move around, some people who could resemble the Cheat Commandos can bring them on and off stage as needed. Do you have a volleyball? Using a real one would make it more fun! |

Though, I can try to get the Cheat Commandos done on cardboard. As for the volleyball, I can try to borrow one. Anymore ideas? |

No, I'll ask the Brothers Chaps if they can send me a file of it (please work). |

Not bad, but do you really think the school would let him wear a shirt that says "CRACK" and call himself Crack Stuntman? Don't you think they might find something a little wrong with that? |

If you'll let me wax artistic for just a moment: While you have fun trying to look like Crack Stuntman, don't forget to see if you can find some way to inject your own personality into it a bit. Make the performance your own, if you will. That's one of the things that makes a performance interesting: seeing how the performer makes his or her unique contribution to the performance. Just a thought, And I know, it's really vague. But like Strong Bad said way back in "the basics", "Develop your own style, TJ. Reach down inside yourself and pull out something, y'know, not like...organs. You know what I mean." Break a leg! |

Well, that depends on two questions: 1) Will she be there to see you? and 2) What's the reason for her forbidding you? |

When is this talent show held anyway? If it's in February, it would be too soon to do a song about spring break. But if it is in March, then that's fine. But I would also like to know why your mother doesn't want you to do it. |

1. It'll be held on February 26, 2009 2. My mom thinks it'll make my friends make fun of me (even though they actually like it) I think I have an idea of getting past her, give me a sec. |

Matt replied. He send me a vocal-less copy of the song. I just asked him to put a clip of it on the site. Hope he says yes. |

Seriously? That's so cool! Can you post an mp3 of it? I'd like to have it! I hope they do put it on the site! |

Matt C. wrote: Hey Nabil, That's so awesome that you want to do one of our songs for your talent show. Here's an mp3 with no vocals that you can use. Be sure and give proper credit to 'Crack Stuntman: the voice of Gunhaver from Cheat Commandos on HomestarRunner.com'. And PLEASE have someone videotape it so we can see. Good luck and I hope this got to you in time. Here's a link to a fansite that has all the lyrics: http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php/An_Important_Rap_Song High five, Matt C. Sadly, I don't know how to put a mp3 download on here. |

Whoa, getting an email from the Bros must be awesome... Well, I don't know the best sites to host mp3 files nowadays; I usually just use my website or my Google Pages account, but if you don't have a GMail account to make that work, you can try wikiupload or Savefile.com. |

The Talent Show was great! Everybody loved the song. Now waiting for my friends to post the video on Youtube & send me a copy of said video to send Matt (since my dad ran out of memory at the beginning of my act while recording). |
