First Voodoo Service - Music All Sorted

[joggerjayne]

I was looking for someone to do the drums for our first Voodoo service.

These guys seem kind of cute ... (first post, below)

And they explain the significance of some of the rhythms.

I like them.

This is good JJ.......will there be room for Jerusalem though?...I quite like that. x

[joggerjayne]

Jerusalem?

Maybe we could change the words to include more chickens and crocodiles.

Or perhaps, rather than Jerusalem ... I wonder if there's a song called Ouagadougou?

( = capital of Burkina Faso )

( yes, I did have to look that up )

[Iluvspikey]

there's agadoo..how about needles and pins instead?

[joggerjayne]

No no no ... pins is hoodoo, not voodoo.

We are a serious and legitimate religion.

Or we're you offering to make our costumes?

:0)

[joggerjayne]

"were"

[Iluvspikey]

Go on then. I'll make your costumes...whaddya want?

[sandyRoe]

Could you find a place in your order of service for this? It has a certain something...

Love Potion Number Nine?

[Iluvspikey]

so what voodoo is it? Haitian? Louisiana? West African? Bognor Regis?

[joggerjayne]

Well, it started in Burkina Faso, and flourished in Haiti.

I'm thinking it could be ... Brightona Faso ?

Great music ideas, guys.

The guy in that clip needs to dress down a bit. He looks like he's going for lunch at the golf club.

Or this version may be more in touch with louche south coast practises. :-)

[joggerjayne]

There are a lot of bottoms in that clip!

[sandyRoe]

Surely no more that you'd see on your local beach on a typical bank holiday Sunday?

[joggerjayne]

Only down towards the marina, on the nudey bit.
