[08:25] <CJC95> Reload for new avatar
[08:25] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Nice
[08:25] <Clone gunner commander jedi> 2012 Olympics logo!
[08:25] <CJC95> Remember how they described it when it was first released.
[08:26] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Mad Hatters in suits?
[08:26] <CJC95> (Lisa Simpson doing something inappropiate)
[08:26] <Clone gunner commander jedi> I remember xD
[08:26] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Who's this woman?
[08:27] <CJC95> Didn't we already have her?
[08:27] <CM4S> T.wat is blocked?
[08:27] <CJC95> Isn't she Emeli Sandi from earlier?
[08:27] <Clone gunner commander jedi> She has already been on
[08:28] <Clone gunner commander jedi> No idea who she is though
[08:28] <CJC95> (Don't you remember from us sitting going through all 205 competitng nations that Friday? :P )
[08:28] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Crying athletes 
[08:28] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Yes I remember
[08:29] <Clone gunner commander jedi> I saved that onto my Wiki from the logs :P 
[08:29] <CJC95> I'm disappointed by how short the Del Boy and Rodney reference was
[08:29] <Clone gunner commander jedi> The Batman and Robin bit?
[08:30] <CJC95> Yeah
[08:30] <Clone gunner commander jedi> That was a reference to Only Fools and Horses?!
[08:30] <CJC95> The Batman and Robin scene.
[08:30] <Clone gunner commander jedi> I thought it was some strange Batman thing
[08:30] <CJC95> Where they are on their way to a fancy dress party, the three wheeled van broke down
[08:31] <CJC95> and they run through the streets as Batman and Robin
[08:31] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Haven't seen that one
[08:31] <CJC95> Flag bearers...Please don't say we have to march everyone in again and recite the names :P 
[08:31] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Only seen the Gary one xD
[08:31] <CJC95> Nope they are all in at once.
[08:31] <CJC95> Ben Ainslie is carrying it for us
[08:31] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Saves time :P 
[08:31] <CJC95> You need to watch more Clone!
[08:32] <CJC95> You need to see that one, and the Chandilier one and the Bar one
[08:32] <CJC95> And all them.
[08:32] <Clone gunner commander jedi> I know, that I should
[08:33] <CJC95> And here come the athletes.
[08:33] <CJC95> And Elbow playing
[08:34] <CJC95> (Open Arms? I think that is what it is called)
[08:34] <Clone gunner commander jedi> What kind of a name is Elbow?
[08:34] <CJC95> Oh, One Day Like This
[08:34] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Nice Ipad :P 
[08:34] <Clone gunner commander jedi> I think it was an Ipad
[08:36] <CJC95> I said it was Open Arms
[08:36] <CJC95> But BBC commentator said it was One Day Like This.
[08:36] <CJC95> THEY lie
[08:36] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Wow, the BBC got something wrong!
[08:37] <CJC95> Well, I didn't watch, but I here they got the whole of the Diamond Jubilee pageant coverage wrong :P 
[08:37] <CJC95> Art work on the floor by Damien Hurst
[08:38] <Clone gunner commander jedi> They got that wrong?! xD
[08:38] <CJC95> Apparently, it was dumbed down so much
[08:38] <CJC95> (Now they are playing One Day Like This I think.
[08:38] <CJC95> I don't really know Elbow songs)
[08:39] <CJC95> Like, they had a transvestite knight Tess Daly instead of actually covering the pageant
[08:40] <CJC95> The athletes slowly meander in
[08:43] <CJC95> The volunteers seem to be fencing the athletes in by linking arms
[08:43] <Clone gunner commander jedi> They need to be fenced in?
[08:43] <CJC95> IDK, but they seemed to be :P 
[08:45] <CJC95> Our House playing again
[08:45] <Clone gunner commander jedi> A song that I know!
[08:46] <CJC95> They are still coming in >_>
[08:46] <CJC95> The volunteers have lightbulbs on their hats
[08:47] <CJC95> Parklife by Blur again
[08:48] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Back flipping athletes 
[08:48] <CJC95> Still more athletes entering
[08:48] <CJC95> (Pet Shop Boys again)
[08:49] <CM4S> >_>
[08:49] <CJC95> The flags are on the move
[08:50] <CJC95> An Hour of Music from the last 50 years coming up :D 
[08:50] <CJC95> Okay, there are 10,820 athletes at the Olympics, but get a move on :P 
[08:50] <CJC95> (I want to be in Grenada know. They get a day off because they won their first Olympic medal)
[08:51] <CJC95> One Direction again :( 
[08:51] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Didn't they already play this song?
[08:51] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Once was bad enough
[08:51] <CJC95> They are replaying the songs already played, but not live
[08:51] <CJC95> We've had the last 3 songs as well already
[08:52] <CJC95> Heh, Twitter is fun to watch during this
[08:52] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Is it?
[08:52] <CJC95> Al Murray - This happens at my parties, playlist goes round twice, everyone too polite to say anything
[08:53] <CJC95> If you follow comedians it is
[08:53] <Clone gunner commander jedi> I don't have a Twitter account
[08:53] <CJC95> The athletes are all in (finally)
[08:53] <Clone gunner commander jedi> About time
[08:53] <CJC95> And they've made a Union Flag
[08:53] <CJC95> Now I guess we are getting the Handover bit soon
[08:54] <CJC95> 303 white boxes - one for each event
[08:54] <CJC95> Highlights now
[08:54] <CJC95> Vague black and white ones
[08:55] <CJC95> I think this is Kate Bush song
[08:55] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Are they building some kind of pyramid through a strange dance?
[08:56] <CJC95> Boring black and white montage
[08:57] <CJC95> Some runners legs, some swimmers feet, a guy getting punched in the face, some rowing boats moving, a gun being fired, someone falling off a bike
[08:57] <CJC95> Oooh we had some colour
[08:59] <CJC95> The Victory ceremony for the Men's Marathon
[08:59] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Brb, tell me if I miss anything good

[09:09] <CJC95> Oh, now its Imagine
[09:09] <CJC95> Reload :P 
[09:09] <CJC95> (I always have found Imagine to be a boring song)

[09:14] <CJC95> FFS
[09:14] <Brick bobby> It probably thinks working is too patriotic :p 
[09:14] <CJC95> There are some crappy things that probably autorun slowing it down
[09:14] <CJC95> Stuff like Spotify and Lost.fm
[09:14] <CJC95> Last.fm
[09:14] <CJC95> And Steam
[09:14] <CJC95> And Windows Live Messenger
[09:14] <CJC95> (We are back)

[09:17] <CJC95> GDI
[09:17] <Brick bobby> He is ;( 
[09:18] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Who is the guy singing?
[09:18] <CJC95> George MIchael
[09:18] <CJC95> I like how we are basicly turning this into a pop concert
[09:18] <CJC95> And how the athletes have all got their smart phones out recording it
[09:19] <CJC95> I;ve never even heard this song he is singing
[09:19] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Same
[09:20] <CJC95> I think it is his new single.
[09:20] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Ah, that's better, muted ;) 
[09:20] <CJC95> You don't play your new single at something like this.
[09:20] <Brick bobby> Connection is not great
[09:21] <CJC95> You play a classic, something everyone knows. 
[09:21] <Berrybrick> It's from the 80's though. :P 
[09:21] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Is it?
[09:21] <Berrybrick> Yep
[09:21] <CJC95> The only exception is if you have an Official Olympic song
[09:21] <Berrybrick> It WAS a hit. :P 
[09:21] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Oh
[09:22] <Brick bobby> My brother just asked if George Michael was drunk
[09:22] <Brick bobby> A bunch of motorbikes noe
[09:22] <Brick bobby> *now
[09:22] <CJC95> I'm delayed still :( 
[09:22] <Berrybrick> Sorry, 60's. I'm bad with dates. :S 
[09:22] <CJC95> You are in Ibiza and you are still ahead of me.
[09:22] <CJC95> I'm like 20 miles away :P 
[09:22] <CJC95> Pinball Wizard by The Who though
[09:23] <Clone gunner commander jedi> You seem to be ahead of me as well by about 10 seconds or so
[09:23] <Jeyo> They should sing Johnny B. Goode
[09:23] <CJC95> Not British though
[09:23] <Jeyo> true
[09:23] <Munchman14> Ya, but it's American!
[09:23] <Munchman14> Ya!
[09:23] <CJC95> But its Kaiser Chiefs singing it, not The Who
[09:23] <Clone gunner commander jedi> So?
[09:23] <CJC95> (He means Johnny B Goode, not Pinball Wizard)
[09:23] <Clone gunner commander jedi> The Olympics are Brittish 
[09:23] <Clone gunner commander jedi> This year
[09:23] <Jeyo> ( :] )
[09:24] <Jeyo> ( wait, scratch this: :] that wasn't what I meant)
[09:24] <CJC95> Even on my favourite table, he can beat my best. 
[09:24] <CJC95> His disciples lead him in and he just does that rest
[09:25] <CJC95> Got crazy magic fingers, I've never seen him fall
[09:25] <CJC95> That deaf dumb and blind kid sure plays a mean pinball
[09:25] <Brick bobby> It's a montage now
[09:25] <CJC95> David Bowie - Space Oddity

[09:25] <CJC95> Let's Dance
[09:25] <Brick bobby> Their moving a big picture of Kate moss now
[09:26] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Wow, I must be quite ahead of CJC
[09:26] <CJC95> (It was David Bowie)
[09:26] <CJC95> I'd reload, but I'd still be behind somehow :P 
[09:27] <CJC95> Still a Bowie song, but not sure which
[09:27] <CJC95> British Fashion tribute.
[09:28] <CJC95> Kate Moss, Naoimi Campbell, some others they haven't named yet
[09:30] <Clone gunner commander jedi> A strange boat?
[09:30] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Annie Lennox?
[09:30] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Who is that?
[09:30] <CJC95> Singer :P 
[09:31] <Clone gunner commander jedi> (facewall) oh :P 
[09:35] <CJC95> Ed Sheeran, Nick Mason (Pink Floyd), and I missed the other two names
[09:35] <CJC95> Playing Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd
[09:36] <CM4S> And here I am sitting here not knowing what in Equestria you're talking about.
[09:36] <CJC95> Anyone catch the other two names?
[09:36] <CJC95> (I want to know who they are)
[09:37] <CJC95> Tightrope walkers
[09:37] <Clone gunner commander jedi> @CM4S, The Olympic closing ceremony
[09:38] <CM4S> Oh.
[09:38] <CM4S> Oh.. they're over already?
[09:38] <CM4S> ._.
[09:38] <Clone gunner commander jedi> It was only for 2 weeks
[09:38] <CJC95> Recreating the cover with the man on fire :P 
[09:39] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Knight! PURE IMAGINATION!
[09:39] <CJC95> Mike Rutherford from Genesis and some guy from The Feeling were the other two
[09:39] <Cligra> O_o 
[09:39] <CJC95> THE realm of imagination
[09:39] <CJC95> Oh God Its Russell Brand
[09:39] <CJC95> I don't like Russell Brand.
[09:39] <Clone gunner commander jedi> That's who that was
[09:39] <Cligra> Russel- HAHAHAGAHAHGAJA.
[09:39] <CJC95> A Day in the Life by The Beatles
[09:40] <Awesomeknight1234> YES!
[09:40] <CJC95> Please don't let Russell sing Beatles
[09:40] <CJC95> Oh God
[09:40] <Cligra> ^
[09:40] <Awesomeknight1234> Oh no...
[09:40] <CJC95> I Am The Walrus even
[09:40] <CJC95> A Day In The Life was earlier
[09:40] <Awesomeknight1234> Will it have the chatter in the end? :D 
[09:40] <Cligra> :P 
[09:40] <Awesomeknight1234> I mean, did it?
[09:40] <Clone gunner commander jedi> No
[09:40] <CJC95> No. No. Russell Brand. No.
[09:40] <Clone gunner commander jedi> It lasted about 30 seconds
[09:40] <CJC95> (Oasis did a good cover of I Am The Walrus live)
[09:40] <Awesomeknight1234> NO!
[09:40] <Awesomeknight1234> The chatter must remain!
[09:41] <Awesomeknight1234> The chatter makes the song beautiful.
[09:42] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Fatboy slim?
[09:42] <CJC95> Have they turned the bus into a spider.
[09:43] <CJC95> When will Brain May get on?
[09:43] <Cligra> When the stars are in alignment. 
[09:43] <CJC95> Well, he is an astrophysicist 
[09:43] <CM4S> The sun has a power
[09:43] <Clone gunner commander jedi> I think that is a squid
[09:44] <CJC95> FatBoy Slim did this song?
[09:44] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Seems like it
[09:44] <Cligra> When the stars align, Brian May will rise from the deep, and unleash his wrath upon us! D: 
[09:44] <CJC95> Oh, Octopus
[09:44] <CJC95> (Cligra - We have basicly turned the Closing Ceremony into a music festival :P )
[09:45] <Cligra> Eh. I'm not complaining. 
[09:45] <CJC95> Well, we still have The Spice Girls to go, so there is that to complain about
[09:45] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Who's the woman singing?
[09:45] <CJC95> Jessie J
[09:46] <CJC95> (It helps they have names pop up)
[09:46] <Jeyo> No idea who that is.
[09:46] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Oh, I missed that
[09:46] <CJC95> One of their cameras briefly stopped working :P 
[09:46] <Clone gunner commander jedi> I saw that :P 
[09:46] <Jeyo> In fact, I probably have no idea who any modern singers are :/ 
[09:46] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Same
[09:46] <Jeyo> :D 
[09:46] <Cligra> Spice Girls? Oh dear... Hopefully the great Brain May will consume them. 
[09:46] <Cligra> (And per Jeyo. :P ) 
[09:47] <CJC95> And also Muse, probably to do their Olympic song
[09:47] <CJC95> Which isn't one of their best.
[09:47] <CJC95> All though quite Queen-esque
[09:47] <CJC95> Tinie Tempah
[09:47] <Clone gunner commander jedi> D: Tiny Tempa H
[09:47] <Cligra> O_o
[09:49] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Tailo Cruse?
[09:49] <CJC95> Taio Cruz? 
[09:51] <CJC95> Are they about to do Stayin Alive by the Bee Gees
[09:51] <CJC95> I can't wait to hear them try and do a falsetto :P 
[09:51] <CJC95> Dance Fever
[09:51] <Berrybrick> The Bee Gees? :S 
[09:51] <Cligra> Oh.. Dear. :/ 
[09:51] <Jeyo> xD
[09:51] <CJC95> Oh I don't know the names of the Bee Gees songs well. All I know is this is a Bee Gees song. 
[09:51] <Jeyo> Even I know who they are
[09:51] <CJC95> My Dad listens to them occasionally
[09:52] <Berrybrick> Lucy in the Sky is one, I think.
[09:52] <CJC95> You Should Be Dancing
[09:52] <CJC95> That is The Beatles
[09:52] <Cligra> ^
[09:52] <Berrybrick> I'm terrible with bands. XD
[09:52] <Jeyo> same
[09:54] <CJC95> Taxis entering
[09:54] <Cligra> :/ 
[09:55] <CJC95> NO
[09:55] <Clone gunner commander jedi> D: Spice Girls?!
[09:55] <CJC95> NO
[09:55] <CJC95> NO
[09:55] <CJC95> 
[09:55] <CJC95> NO!
[09:55] <Cligra> :O 
[09:55] <CJC95> Who. No. Why
[09:55] <Clone gunner commander jedi> "They will delite" I don't think so
[09:55] <Jeyo> what?
[09:55] <CJC95> Who decided to invite The Spice Girls
[09:55] <Cligra> :O 
[09:56] <Jeyo> Who
[09:56] <Jeyo> are the Spice Girls?
[09:56] <CJC95> 90s girl band
[09:56] <CJC95> Victoria Beckham was a member
[09:56] <Cligra> NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
[09:56] <Jeyo> Sounds bad already
[09:56] <Clone gunner commander jedi> They were bad
[09:56] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Still are
[09:56] <Jeyo> The only Bands i listen to are from the 80's down
[09:58] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Will they stop shouting "Spice up your life" ?
[09:58] <Cligra> Spice up your... Ugh. 
[09:58] <CJC95> Can they do what they did to recreate the Wish You Were Here cover with the tightrope walkers
[09:58] <Stormbringer Empire791> Why are we talking about awful music!?!?
[09:58] <Clone gunner commander jedi> It's finally over!
[09:58] <CJC95> And set them on firee
[09:58] <CJC95> Because its the closing ceremony
[09:58] <CJC95> Fire*
[09:58] <Cligra> FIRE! :D 
[09:59] <Stormbringer Empire791> BOOM
[09:59] <Berrybrick> I tried to talk about awful music, but nobody watched my video. :/ 
[09:59] <Cligra> :P 
[09:59] <CJC95> They got tightrope walkers, they met in the middle and one burst into flames
[09:59] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Beady Eyo now
[09:59] <Cligra> Flames.. :D 
[09:59] <Awesomeknight1234> Beady Jeyo?
[09:59] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Eye*
[09:59] <CJC95> Copying that http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/3/39/WishYouWereHere-300.jpg
[09:59] <CJC95> Told you they'd play an Oasis song.
[09:59] <CJC95> But needs Noel singing
[10:00] <CJC95> Liam sounds bad on this song.
[10:00] <CJC95> I said maybe, you're gonna be the one who saves me
[10:00] <CJC95> And after all, your my wonderwall
[10:01] <Creeper S> Almost finished my new avatar!
[10:01] <Jeyo> Beady Jeyo xD
[10:01] <CJC95> One day Boris Johnson will be Prime Minister
[10:01] <Jeyo> I like yours right now, though
[10:01] <CJC95> Seriously.
[10:01] <Cligra> :O 
[10:01] <Jeyo> @CS
[10:01] <CJC95> Its bound to happen.
[10:01] <Clone gunner commander jedi> @CJC xD
[10:02] <CJC95> The only way for Conservatives to get in next election :P 
[10:02] <CJC95> Seriously, a poll in todays Sun said 10% of Labour voters would vote for Tories if Boris led them
[10:03] <Clone gunner commander jedi> ELO?
[10:03] <CJC95> Plus, he is the only politician who can gain popularity by getting stuck on a zip wire
[10:03] <CJC95> http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Guardian/Pix/pictures/2012/8/1/1343834048026/boris-zip-wire-008.jpg
[10:03] <CJC95> ELO are amazing.
[10:03] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Mister Blue Sky?
[10:03] <CJC95> Mr. Blue Sky is amazing.
[10:03] <Cligra> ^
[10:03] <Cligra> :D 
[10:03] <Clone gunner commander jedi> IKR?
[10:03] <Jeyo> :S I'm lost
[10:03] <CJC95> Is ELO performing live?
[10:03] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Doesn't look like it
[10:03] <Jeyo> Who or what is ELO?
[10:04] <Cligra> Electric Light Orchestra 
[10:04] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Electric Light Orchestra?
[10:04] <CJC95> Electric Light Orchestra were a British rock/pop band which also had a light orchestra
[10:04] <Clone gunner commander jedi> I was right!
[10:04] <CJC95> And produced amazing songs.
[10:04] <Cligra> Yar. 
[10:04] <CJC95> Get there greatest hits album. 
[10:04] <CJC95> Jeff Lynne also worked with The Beatles in the 90s
[10:04] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Bikes with wings?
[10:04] <CJC95> And John Lennon said if the Beatles had carried on, they would have sounded like ELO
[10:04] <Clone gunner commander jedi> A big cannon?
[10:05] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Nice...
[10:05] <Clone gunner commander jedi> It's a quiet?!
[10:05] <CJC95> Cannon fired
[10:05] <CM4S> boom ._.
[10:05] <Cligra> -_-
[10:06] <CJC95> The guy didn't go out though and slid into a hole in the ground
[10:06] <CJC95> Its Eric Idle
[10:06] <CJC95> From Monty Python
[10:06] <Clone gunner commander jedi> "Allways look on the bright side of life"
[10:06] <Cligra> ^ :D ^
[10:06] <CM4S> How do you know all of this stuff <_>
[10:06] <CJC95> Because we are watching it.
[10:06] <Cligra> cuz we da smartz
[10:06] <Clone gunner commander jedi> ^
[10:06] <CJC95> Always look on the Bright Side of Life
[10:06] <Stormbringer Empire791> Keep on the sunny side of life
[10:06] <Stormbringer Empire791> Not bright side
[10:06] <CJC95> And we are Brits (and Cligra is an honorary Brit now :P )
[10:07] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Skating nuns? xD
[10:07] <Cligra> For life is quite absurd
[10:07] <Cligra> And death's the final word
[10:07] <Cligra> You must always face the curtain with a bow.
[10:07] <Cligra> :D 
[10:07] <CJC95> I wonder if he'll sing Life's a piece of s*** when you look at it :P 
[10:07] <Jeyo> Wait - Clig, do you live in America?
[10:07] <CJC95> Nope, hes changed the words :P 
[10:07] <Cligra> Darn. :/ 
[10:09] <Cligra> Life's a laugh and death's a joke, it's true.
[10:09] <Cligra> You'll see it's all a show
[10:09] <Cligra> Keep 'em laughing as you go
[10:09] <Cligra> Just remember that the last laugh is on you.
[10:09] <Clone gunner commander jedi> CJC he said taht!
[10:09] <CJC95> He sung it :D 
[10:09] <Clone gunner commander jedi> I know! :D 
[10:09] <Cligra> :P 
[10:10] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Now, what could ever top that!
[10:10] <CJC95> Brian May could.
[10:10] <CJC95> They fired the person out of the cannon
[10:10] <Berrybrick> (yawn) 
[10:10] <Cligra> Boom. 
[10:10] <Cligra> We like cannons. 
[10:10] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Muse now
[10:11] <Clone gunner commander jedi> On piano
[10:11] <CJC95> Muse's Olympic song
[10:11] <CJC95> New album coming out soon
[10:11] <Clone gunner commander jedi> How is that Olympics related?
[10:11] <Creeper S> Any help?
[10:11] <CJC95> Its called Survival, its about winning :P 
[10:11] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Ah!
[10:12] <CJC95> Lines like "I'll keep up the pace, and give all my strength"
[10:12] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Oh :P 
[10:12] <Berrybrick> :D 
[10:13] <CJC95> Muse's albums ranked best to worst - Origin of Symmetry (2001), Showbiz (1999), Absolution (2003), Black Holes and Revelations (2006 or 7), The Resistance (2009)
[10:14] <CJC95> This song is better live than the recorded version.
[10:14] <CM4S> What do you use when you make your minifigures
[10:14] <CJC95> Plus, a good amount of flames going up
[10:14] <Cligra> FLAMES! :D 
[10:14] <CJC95> Freddie Mercury
[10:14] <CJC95> Freddie Mercury!
[10:15] <CJC95> Freddie Mercury!!

[10:16] <Cligra> :D :D :D 
[10:16] <CJC95> Sorry Jeyo, I'm afraid I'm going to have to disown you :P 
[10:16] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Amazing guitar solo!
[10:16] <Cligra> Per CJC. D:
[10:16] <Jeyo> You never "owned" me in the first place :P 
[10:16] <Jeyo> But I get the gist
[10:16] <Cligra> That's what you think. 
[10:16] <Jeyo> xD
[10:16] <Stormbringer Empire791> I thought about sergeant peppers for a second XD
[10:16] <Clone gunner commander jedi> He was the lead guitarist of Queen, right?
[10:17] <CJC95> I did. I've sold you to Clone now
[10:17] <CJC95> Yeah 
[10:17] <Jeyo> And
[10:17] <CJC95> (Well, only guitarist)
[10:17] <Jeyo> who is brian May?
[10:17] <Clone gunner commander jedi> D: I don't want him
[10:17] <CJC95> Sell him to someone else then :P 
[10:17] <Cligra> Give him to me! :D 
[10:17] <Jeyo> Sell me to me
[10:17] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Cligra, you want him?
[10:17] <Cligra> Yeah!
[10:17] <Jeyo> This is hilarious
[10:17] <Cligra> I can order him to make pages! 
[10:17] <CJC95> You can force him to listen to every Queen album :P 
[10:17] <Cligra> :D 
[10:17] <Stormbringer Empire791> Meh link old rock
[10:17] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Take him!

[10:18] <Jeyo> Ah...no thanks
[10:18] <CJC95> We Will Rock YoU!
[10:18] <Cligra> :D 
[10:18] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Sounds like it

[10:19] <Jeyo> So who are freddie....something and Brian May?
[10:19] <Clone gunner commander jedi> But no lyrics :(

[10:19] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Oh now she is singing
[10:19] <Jeyo> Yeah, and Jessie J
[10:19] <CJC95> I'm guessing he has a wireless guitar, or a really long lead :P 
[10:20] <Clone gunner commander jedi> "We will, we will rock you!"
[10:20] <CJC95> They don't need anyone to sing the chorus, you've got like a hundred thousand people doing it :D 
[10:20] <Cligra> :P 
[10:20] <CJC95> You got blood on your face, you big disgrace, waving your banner all over the place
[10:20] <Clone gunner commander jedi> This is so much better than the boring opening ceremony! 
[10:20] <Cligra> We will, we will rock you!
[10:20] <Jeyo> isn't that "mud"?
[10:20] <CJC95> Best bit of Opening was Arctic Monkeys
[10:20] <Cligra> Sing it! 
[10:20] <CM4S> Mr. Bean..
[10:20] <CJC95> Especially the cover of Come Together
[10:20] <CJC95> Oh and Bean
[10:21] <Jeyo> or have i just caused even Cligra to disown me?

[10:21] <CJC95> Awesome guitar solo
[10:21] <CJC95> And its both
[10:21] <Clone gunner commander jedi> National anthem of Greece now :/ 
[10:23] <CJC95> Is it me or are most national anthems more boring than ours
[10:23] <Clone gunner commander jedi> CJC, they are
[10:23] <CJC95> Or is it just because we have thousands singing ours
[10:23] <Cligra> :P 
[10:23] <CJC95> But Brian May doing it on guitar is still amazing
[10:23] <Clone gunner commander jedi> He did it on guitar?1
[10:23] <CJC95> Olympic Anthem by the London Welsh choir
[10:23] <CJC95> On top of Buckingham Palace

[10:27] <Jeyo> So that's brian may
[10:27] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Yes!
[10:27] <CJC95> Seriously, One day, Johnson will be leader of the Tories.
[10:27] <CJC95> If not Prime Minister
[10:27] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Brb, replaying :P 
[10:27] <Jeyo> Who's Freddie Mercury then?
[10:28] <CJC95> The lead singer of Queen
[10:28] <CJC95> Who died of AIDS related illness in 1991
[10:28] <Cligra> ..Just Wikipedia him, already. 
[10:28] <CJC95> Oh, and the greatest singer ever
[10:28] <Clone gunner commander jedi> ^ please!
[10:28] <CJC95> National Anthem of Brazil
[10:29] <Jeyo> I see
[10:30] <Cligra> Huh. Wacky dancing street sweepers. :/ 
[10:30] <CJC95> Rio's presentation
[10:30] <Jeyo> Alrighty then
[10:30] <CJC95> This is what to expect in 4 years time
[10:30] <Cligra> Oh dear. 
[10:30] <CJC95> Don't know how they'll eclipse our games or ceremonies though
[10:31] <Stormbringer Empire791> What about Rio?
[10:31] <CJC95> I mean, the IOC president said they were the best games ever
[10:31] <CJC95> Due to the crowds and volunteers
[10:31] <Cligra> :P 
[10:31] <CJC95> Rio de Janiero is hosting the 2016 games Storm
[10:31] <Cligra> Umbrella dress. :/ 
[10:31] <CJC95> Still, they can beat the logo as long as it doesn't look like Lisa Simpson performing an indecent act.
[10:32] <Cligra> :P 
[10:32] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Yeah xD
[10:34] <Cligra> Rapping Brazilian ping-pong ball Elvis. :| 
[10:34] <Clone gunner commander jedi> xD
[10:34] <Jeyo> Who's Elvis?
[10:34] <Jeyo> I'm joking, don't worry :D 
[10:34] <Stormbringer Empire791> Whew!
[10:34] <Stormbringer Empire791> O_o
[10:35] <CJC95> Sorry, I consider not knowing Freddie Mercury worse :P 
[10:35] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Phew... for a moment there...
[10:35] <Stormbringer Empire791> /\
[10:35] <Cligra> Per CJC. ://
[10:36] <CJC95> However Jeyo, I shall forgive you, if you go to my wiki homepage, and tell me the show the two actors are from. :P 
[10:37] <CJC95> I'd link, but not sure its appropriate xD
[10:37] <CJC95> (Rio stuff is boring me. Bring back Brian May. Or Muse)
[10:38] <CzechMate> Brian May with Jessie J was horrid
[10:38] <Cligra> Per CJC. We want Queen. 
[10:38] <Jeyo> o_O CJC I have no idea
[10:38] <Cligra> Brazilian Elvis scary. :S 
[10:38] <CJC95> I didn't expect you to tbh :P 
[10:38] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Nice mainpage on your Wiki CHC :P 
[10:38] <CJC95> Still its an American show
[10:38] <Clone gunner commander jedi> CJC*
[10:39] <CJC95> I'd link but its probably inappropiate xD
[10:39] <Clone gunner commander jedi> I think it is xD
[10:39] <Cligra> My reaction: Wut. 
[10:39] <CJC95> Community is the answer
[10:39] <Cligra> Huh. I watch that, but didn't get the images. :P 
[10:39] <CJC95> (I was happy when I found that. Only partly because I'd found the code to the upload thing)
[10:39] <Cligra> *Image
[10:39] <CJC95> Its from some interview
[10:39] <CJC95> :P 
[10:39] <Cligra> Ah. :P 
[10:40] <CJC95> (I like Community. I like Alison Brie. Therefore, the image appealed when I was looking for a test)
[10:40] <CJC95> Lord Coe.
[10:40] <Cligra> :P 
[10:40] <CJC95> (I have to watch on the internet. They don't show it here)
[10:40] <CJC95> (Well, they sorta do)
[10:40] <CJC95> (I saw the first series on Virgin on Demand, and apparently it was on Viva)
[10:41] <CJC95> (But they only showed the second series earlier this year on Sony TV, which I've never heard of)
[10:41] <CJC95> (And they only have season 1 on DVD)
[10:41] <CzechMate> CJC must be a crazed man 
[10:41] <CzechMate> But not as crazed as thou penguin.
[10:41] <Cligra> weeza all cwazed
[10:41] <Clone gunner commander jedi> ^
[10:41] <CJC95> Special cheer for the soldiers there
[10:42] <CJC95> Why must I be :P ?
[10:42] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Watching the Olympics closing ceremony
[10:42] <Topher Anderson> cool
[10:42] <Cligra> Aren't we all? :D 
[10:42] <Topher Anderson> i'm not
[10:42] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Yeah! :D 
[10:42] <CJC95> Us Brits (and honorary Brit Cligra) is
[10:43] <Cligra> g2g
[10:43] <Clone gunner commander jedi> D: NOO!
[10:43] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Cligra!
[10:43] <Jeyo> ^
[10:43] <CJC95> Fancy word play there
[10:43] <Clone gunner commander jedi> When does the ceremony finish?
[10:43] <CJC95> IDK :P 
[10:44] <CJC95> But so far its been 2 hours 45 minutes long :P 
[10:44] <Clone gunner commander jedi> The Iplayer says 11:30 but it's already 11:44
[10:44] <CJC95> I think Samantha Cameron always looks like she is smelling something bad
[10:44] <CJC95> But then again, she is next to BoJo
[10:45] <Clone gunner commander jedi> BoJo?
[10:45] <CJC95> Boris
[10:45] <Clone gunner commander jedi> Ah!
[10:46] <Clone gunner commander jedi> IOC President making a speech
[10:46] <CJC95> They have a woman to swap the pieces of paper around :P 
[10:46] <CzechMate> I'm so sick of these crappy new singers doubling up with good bands - it's a waste of time
