AIBU?

NC (name changed as I don't want this to be outing)

A rhythmless man at church has said he wants to put on a concert to raise some money for shoeless orphans. We shall call him A.

A said to B that they have money to help. B said that the last concert raised some issues but would support them none the less.

C said she didn't want to be forgotten.

Who is BU?

I thought from about post 3 that this was a wind up... now I’m honestly not so sure.
The OP is a genius. And the MD. oh my days.

P*nis? Even Jesus had one, promise.

What is an MD please?

Feefeetrixabelle · 29/08/2018 17:24

It’s throughly washed, that I am insistent on. I do think there should be separate beakers for penis cleansing and collections but there just isn’t the budget. This recession has hit us all hard.

What is an MD please?

Massive d... ?

Feefeetrixabelle · 29/08/2018 17:44

Massive dinosaur is the usually MD terminology but I believe the OP is a musical director.

mikeyssister · 29/08/2018 18:02

Have you ever sang "The Rattlin' Bog"?

Namechangeforthiscancershit · 29/08/2018 18:08

Way down in the valley o

Booboopidoo · 29/08/2018 18:09

Ohh I love the rattlin bog!

Oddcat · 29/08/2018 18:17

Despite all the drama Op , I foresee this concert as being a huge success . Brace yourself for being talent hunted to appear on BGT or even the XFactor .

pinkgirl1234 · 29/08/2018 18:36

But surely if A has no rhythm, he could still organise the concert? Or is that not acceptable to you OP?

You are clearly very controlling.

pinkgirl1234 · 29/08/2018 18:49

Pinkgirl, I think your comment about pole dancing around the massive organ was unhelpful and you should apologise to the op.

I am very sorry for my unhelpful and vulgar comment. All of the other comments have been so very helpful to the OP. I'm ashamed of myself. Sad

Pnis? Even Jesus had one, promise.*

Please, let's not lower the tone.

MD is musical director. Sorry, I thought everyone knew that.

Away with you oddcat we are seeking neither fame nor fortune.

I was really good at recorder in school - I still think I remember how to play 'Lord of the Dance'. If you're anywhere near The Midlands I'd be happy to do an item at the concert

HeckyPeck · 29/08/2018 19:15

I can do row row row your boat on the harmonica

Oddcat · 29/08/2018 19:15

I can tell how modest you are about your talent Op , but I just have a feeling that its something that shouldn't be withheld from the rest of the world - just imagine how many shoes you could buy with the prize money !

Oddcat · 29/08/2018 19:18

Hecky alas my musical talent is limited to the triangle and comb and paper. However I do know the actions to Row Row maybe I could be a visual part of the show.

HeckyPeck · 29/08/2018 19:24

@oddcat we’d steal the show. Think of poor sidelined C

ElainaElephant · 29/08/2018 19:27

Especially given my ping pong routine bought in £50 at the last benefit. It would have been more, I was aiming at the vicars mouth but got his wife instead

I'm picturing something like the bar scene from Priscilla Queen of the Desert. I think that would go down very well Tbh.

Feefeetrixabelle · 29/08/2018 19:32

Did anyone else do those tubular bell things at primary? OP would you be up for audience participation by providing the bells and letting us play along. No singing I promise- my dog just left the room while I sang a spice girls medley so I may have overestimated my ability there.

HauntedPencils · 29/08/2018 20:12

What was the outcome of the meeting op?

Wanttomakemincepies · 29/08/2018 20:52

When I read ping pong routine I am visualising a Sticky Vicky type thing Confused but that would have brought in more than 50 quid surely?

Justabadwife · 29/08/2018 21:06

Omg. I nearly choked on my ice cream reading the bits I'd missed. Poor DH, he thought I was having some sort of fit.

As penance I think you should agree to service A’s organ ready for the big day
