Wiggles with Sam

DeckthehallswithFrumpyGrumpy · 01/12/2006 13:30

Looks lightweight. Needs more shoulders.

PortAndLemonaid · 01/12/2006 13:41

There's always padding...

paulaplumpbottom · 01/12/2006 16:48

He is no Greg

No way... Saw him perform in July at Wiggles concert, fantastic.

Anthony is my favourite! Not sure about dcs fav.

I am soooo sad about this. While Anthony is my favourite, I just can't imagine the Wiggles without Greg

I haven't told DS yet, but as we aren't going to be seeing them anytime soon, I don't think he will understand anyway.

I have just watched the video... how sad am I? I almost started to blub
I can't believe he just sat there in a black shirt... not a trace of yellow!
I am willing to give Sam a try, but it's just not the same

Poor old Grig (as my DS used to call him)

Unfortunately, my DS has now grown out of the Wiggles - shame as I thought they were great

treacletart · 02/12/2006 11:06

AAhhhh Dh welled up watching the video - Its like the Tour de France handing over the yellow jersey.

Still, this quote from Murray wiggle in the Mirror made me chuckle: "We will miss Greg as a superb singer and songwriter." But he added: "Kids tend to centre on one thing. If he's wearing yellow, he's pretty much Greg."

You know you need to get out more when you go see the Wiggles with your kids and you know all their names, surnames and the names of all the dancers.....we saw the Wiggles in July and poor old Greg wasn't jumping about much and looked crumpled. Talking of Jeff he had to move house recently because some Sydney teenagers found out where he lived and kept standing outside his house at 2am yelling "Wake up Jeff!" True!

paulaplumpbottom · 02/12/2006 13:01

LOL Baggiebetty. I think he kind of asked for that one.

sockmonkey · 02/12/2006 19:39

Poor Jeff! LOL

popsycal · 02/12/2006 19:41

greag is the wiggles
v sad as ds2 issooo obsessed by them even more so than ds1 ever was

2000milestoeidsvold · 13/12/2006 06:32

wiggles concert was fab... dd1's face was a treat - she almost wet herself when cpt feathersword came out - he is her favourite......even dd2 ( just 2) got up and was dancing like crazy.... they had the best time and tbh did not even notice the difference between Sam and Greg - got a little choked up at the video they played at first handing over the yellow jersey -

rather twee when the big red car came out with sam driving - big L plate on it.

BUT wiggles rocked - anthony - my favourite was in prime form..... cpt feathersword lost the plot at one stage and was laughing so much I thought he was going to fall over.

It was just a fab fun time - the girls had a blast.

sydneygirl · 13/12/2006 08:27

I had tears in my eyes when we saw the Wiggles last week! I am sooooo sad, but they feel like old friends, with the amount of time they take up in my day!
Thought Sam did a fine job, wasn't overpowering and just seemed to have a great time.
Murray's my favourite, he's just so gangly and endearing.....sigh....

FrumpytheGrumpyreindeer · 13/12/2006 12:34

eidsvold thank you for that update, it sounds FAB!!

I notice Cpt Feathersword seems to have his own agenda on stage, he's always larking about and causing the others to wet themselves.

Love the L plate idea. Still not happy about the lightweight Sam. Couldn't Greg just do a Penny Pocket??

2000milestoeidsvold · 13/12/2006 21:30

i think cpt feathersword is providing the adults with the humour - very slapstick - guess he likes having fun

Whizzz · 13/12/2006 21:36

BaggieBetty - have just PMSL at Jeff moving house !!!! Poor old Jeff

sockmonkey · 14/12/2006 08:26

Glad to hear you Mums had fun at the concert! Captain Feathersword is a very naughty sailor, shiver my timbers

FrumpytheGrumpyreindeer · 14/12/2006 10:57

wish he'd shiver my timbers

My favourite is the "I am a dancer" song. You have to be very secure in your manhood to prance around like a ballet dancer.
