How to get "Spoon" played in CVILLE.

I tried this in Tampa and if Dave had remembered the song he would have played the whole thing.

I snuck about 25 plastic spoons into Tampa and handed them out to the front row. After Funny The Way It Is I asked everyone to hold them up. Dave came up and laughed and played the opening chords. He came back to me several times that night and said "i'm still trying to remember it". He later promised me he'd play it in WPB (he didn't).


BUT! If everyone in GA brings plastic spoons to CVILLE both nights it's gotta happen! I will bring about twenty or so for Night 1 but if it isn't played night one I have to intrust others to hold them up night 2!

Let's make this happen!

Closer to the actual date I will send out a facebook message to remind everyone! Join the Cville event if you haven't yet!

    I actually dont believe this. The song is very simple to play. He knows it. Thats just his spiel way of saying it nicely that he isnt going to play it. If he knows the first chords he knows the whole thing, its the same.

    But anyways, good job on gettin him to mess with it. Maybe it will happen this fall.

    Maybe this will work as well as that time when a bunch of people in the audience were given pieces of paper that said Pig on them.

    We need to get them to play BTCS in full. The front row needs to hold these things up in order from stage right to stage left:

    Snake
    Lock of long hair
    Stop Sign
    Bottled Water
    Clock?
    Pumpkin
    Stone
    Orange Crush drink
    Tree branch
    Pork Chop
    Spoon
