Unit 20 Strength Challenge (novice)
Users viewing topic: & 1 Guest
Lads,
I went to a Steve Brooks show about five years ago and each competitor had 'theme music'. They were introduced using it before the any of the events had started and they played a 5-10 second clip before each competitor did each of their events. It's maybe a bit cheesy but Boxing have obviously done it for years and I think that Cricket do it too(in Twenty20) when a batter comes out.
I know some people will probably take the piss out of this but I personally think that to appeal to a wider audience strongman needs to be a bit 'showbiz'. For my theme song, I was thinking about 'Made in England (Elton John)' to wind up the Scots
or Barbie Girl to take the piss out of myself. I can't quite decide.

Unfortunately Pete has been banned from the comp, and also from Scotland, following this wild suggestion.... 
The idea's no bad man, but too much hassle to set up I think. Unless we all have the same song maybe

Don't be stupid Joni, I don't want to get fat!
Just trying to rest my shoulder and pray that it is OK on the day. Started Ibuprofein today, am trying my best to eat, but it's hard work when you don't have an appetite!
As long as I beat Joni I'll be happy

If you already have a PA set up, you could get competitors to email an mp3 clip in and have a laptop or something. Shouldn't be too hard.
