NCAAbbs - Question for NateJones

What did you guys do with the bras?

For those not "in the know," Nate is a member of the OUTSTANDING acapella group "Chiefs of Staff." I was lucky enough to be on the front row on Friday as these talented (and handsome) young men performed and rocked a packed auditorium. At Saturday night's show the guys had ladies throwin their undies at them. :eek:

Yeah, I want mine back.

Tasha

I got one thrown on me so I kept that one, I had to give it back so I did afterward... I think Matt Greenslade had one thrown to him by his GF Klara and he was like "WTF this is Klara's bra... this has special meaning for us!"
It was good times.

We're gonna have a CD again this year, and I'll make sure you get one. :)

got a demo?

We'll need two CDs in this house please. Have to fight Girl for stuff like that. I also heard that she was your nurse. What the heck were you doing to get injured anyway? For the record I heard it had nothing to do with lingerie...........

If you want to hear more Chiefs, almost all of them are in the East Chapel Hill Musical of "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" playing the roles of the brother's and Joseph. Sound done by your's truly. Shows are Feb 26-28 at 7:30.

T-Money and Nate,
PM me with info on how to get tix for the upcoming production...
me and the better half will put it on the schedule 04-cheers

If anyone wants to buy a CD... shoot me a PM... They will probably be 8 bucks or 10 bucks... depending on how good of a studio we get.

List of probable songs

Walkin in Memphis - Mark Cohn
Let's Get it On - Marvin Gaye
I'll Be - Edwin McCain
Kissed by a Rose - Seal
More than Words - Extreme
Oh What a Night - (not sure? Billy Joel?)
Overjoyed - Stevie Wonder
Virtual Insanity - Jamiroquai
Brick - Ben Folds Five
Seven Bridges Road - The Eagles
Impression that I get - Mighty Mighty Bosstones
Semi Charmed Life - Third Eye Blind
Free Fallin - Tom Petty
And a few others...

If you have any questions about anything you need an objective opinion about, ask TDM or Thomas, cause I will just tell you how ridiculously good we are (or at least part of the group is). 03-razz

If you will send 5 bucks to Thomas, he can get you a ticket... and he or I will mail it to you, or you can pick it up at the door the night of the play... T-Monay knows more info than I do, those techies are always on top of things 03-wink Talk to him to get accurate details.

Yes she was my nurse... I went out to get some Bojangles to fry up my vocal chords real nice, so I could hit those ridiculously low notes... On our way back, we thought we were late... and I got my foot caught in a hole or something... busted my ****** on the concrete... and my palms got torn up pretty nicely. Your darling daughter fixed them up quite nicely... I was a pansy and didn't disinfect the cuts, so now they are looking a bit disinfected. :(

which one is it?
-Franki valli and the four seasons, or
-the dells

please tell me neither. Because if you do the Franki valli version, and you ruin it (which you would, because nobody except for the 4 seasons can do it), you'll have to leave the state.

Its Frankie Vallie, and they do an excellent job. It's A Cappella so it sounds a little different.

This is a studio recording as opposed to your live recording? Because you had some of these songs on their first album.

sorry thomas. their group might be great, i wouldn't know. But nobody except for the 4 seasons can do this song, and you can't take away the music either.

Tarheelsben1 and flyingswoosh-if you like acapella groups you will LOVE these guys. Wish you could see 'me live too. And since I am a Mom from the "other" (read better) school I am not even supposed to like the Chiefs of Staff. Saturday night I was honestly reduced to a puddle of mush when they performed "Let's Get It On."

We may finally see a show at East since so many Chiefs are in "Joseph" but it is the same weekend as our production of "The Importance of Being Earnest." Our neighbor and the Chiefs' twins' future step-brother is in "Earnest." And another neighbor too. I can't believe I know so many talented young 'uns!!!!!

Well if you heard Jorge sing it... I think you would change your mind... And the last note of the song... Sean hitting a high C full "****** voiced".

you see jorge and the others could never compare to guys like valli and lymon (well nobody could compare to lymon). My standards are too high because i grew up partly on oldies. The platters, frankie lymon and the teenagers, dion and the belmonts, the drifters, the coasters, buddy holly, etc.

a) Have you ever heard Jorge sing?

b) We don't perform it in the traditional oldies style... For example, we have a vocal percussion break, a few different rhythms, and end it with a barbershop tag.

There is absolutely NO DOUBT in my mind that Anoop, Jorge and Matt Greenslade would all make the top 12 in American Idol. NO DOUBT. I'm also confident that no one else (except maybe Stephen Greenslade) would make it past the first round of AI.

Especially Anoop. Homeboy > Mark Cohn and Marvin Gaye (purely in vocals, not song writing)

a) no, but it doesn't matter
b) so you destroy the song?
c) american idol? top 12? the people who win can't sing at all. i can only imagine how bad the guy or girl who got 12th is. Clay Aiken is a horrible singer! Anoop and them might be good, i don't wanna diss them, but i've been listening to oldies for most of my life, and i hate to sing those songs taken apart.

a) Hell yes it does.
b) No, it's still the same melody and background, just a little different twist.
c) To go even further, I think Anoop could make the top 3. Matt G and Jorge don't have the versatility to go that far, but Anoop does...

BTW, Clay has a great voice... It's just most suited for a Disney musical or something like that. His voice is not suited for pop music as most people know it (and thank goodness for that).

Nate, why don't you and I go in together and buy flyingswoosh a CD? Or better yet-a ticket to the next show. Or both.

Flyingswoosh-for the record-I grew up on the music now considered oldies. I absolutely LOVE Marvin Gaye. I am always skeptical of hearing a new/different version of a classic. Anoop had me on my feet as "Let's Get It On" ended. That's after I collected myself from the "faint" caused by the perfection of their rendition. Remember-I'm the Mom, not one of the teeny boppers with a crush on the guys. But you know what, if you hate acapella then all my arguments are moot.

flyingswoosh Wrote:

Great songs are the ones that when performed by anyone (at the same level of talent/emotion/presentation) sound just as good. Saying that only one person/group can perform a song is outrageous (for lack of a better term). If music was like that, then we all should be complaining about all the great classical pieces. They aren't still performed by the Berlin Orchestra of 1863, so they aren't as good! Also, comparing A Capella to the original is like apples to oranges.

As far as Aiken goes, like Nate said, he's not so much pop as he would be something such as Broadway or show songs. Personally I think he has better stage presence than Matt, if that means anything to you Nate, and a slight edge in the ability to project.

He's a capitalist. He wouldn't go to a show if he had to pay for it. This would be the only way to get him in, and you and Nate wouldn't have to split the 5 bucks to get a ticket.

In every sense of the word. He's trying to sell candy at a lower rate than the fundraisers for Nicaragua kids.
