Title: If the Melvin played the Superbowl.
Post by: Jaron on February 01, 2015, 07:36:03 PM
What would they play? How would it go down? Who would they bring with them?

I would like to hear them play AMAZON or Hooch and maybe some stuff of A Senile Animal? (Civilized Worm? You've Never Been Right?)

I'm sure they might bring some unknowns up there with them, just not sure who? (David Yow?)

As far as the show its self, shit the possibilities that could come out of Mackie's or Haze's head.

Hope some of you are enjoying the game.

Go TEAMS!

Play a condensed COD, with the graphics of melvins.com in the background (barfing baby, elephant eluding a cursor).

I knew it wouldn't be long before someone mentioned COD.

funny this topic was mentioned because i thought about this last night, about how i was listening to Ozma over and over during last years Superbowl. i think maybe i took a pause between to witness Bruno Mars and the tragedy that was the RHCP. other than that, i couldn've been bothered except for Ozma blasting in the background.

weird how you remember stuff like that. so on that note, ill say OZMA!!!!

again, too weird. I was thinking about the same thing last night.

what if?

what would they play?
Cater to the masses and play their more accessible tracks like honey bucket, revolve, civilized worm, nude with boots, the kicking machine?

I love the guys, and wouldn't be mad at them for playing those tracks. I mean i'm pretty sure they don't have an ipecac 401k plan.
Any opportunity for them to gain monetary success for the present and the future would be a very wise decision.

Or would they play songs that define their sound? Boris, Hung/Roman (maybe a bit too long)?

Or could they even drop a cover? Let me roll it? ballad of dwight frye? sacrifice?

They could even give a big FUCK YOU, to the public and the industry, and play something really obscure, like COD or a Prick song or something from stag.

In the end, I wouldn't mind them doing a slow, muddy Boris, a fast Zodiac, a bone crunching Your Blessened, and a lethal dosage of Night Goat.

Maynard!  :lol:
No, in all seriousness, Patton.
Not a bad time to unleash the 3 bass behemoth.  :evil:

They'd bring out the Kirkwood Brothers and play "Touchdown King". :D

The lights would go out as the band sings the Star Spangled Banner.

Afterwards PA rushes a guitar out to Buzz and he starts to play Honey Bucket with it being their biggest song.  The stage is revealed and it's a barn theme complete with sheep.  The crowd goes nuts as they continue into Hooch.

Suddenly the lights go out as David Bowie is lowered into the crowd on a giant flying star as he sings the intro to Space Oddity.  Once he lands on stage The Melvins start to play Station to Station and the stage now has a space theme complete with back up dancers.

Finally for the closer the remaining members of Queen join them on stage for a performance of Best Friend.  The crowd goes nuts and world peace is declared.

somehow I don't see the networks salivating over any one of the above mentioned scenarios.

They'd play a deritive of Jacksonville, with every past bassist back for a reunion playing all at once and Dale to be hoisted up on a 180 degree rotating platform. I feel a 360 degree rotating platform would be far too ridiculous a scenario.

Unless it was a huge rotating platform of a mock-up of Buzz's hair, about 300' in diameter. Each member of the band would be dressed in a louse costume and walk up and down each follicle as they played.

Maybe one of the boys would pull a Janet Jackson and have a "wardrobe malfunction".
Buzz: "Yes! I swear that my flannel wasn't supposed to rip like that!"
