Not In Kansas Anymore, Act III, sc. iv

Click to Enlarge

Kansas saves the day! I have a feeling that they'd probably discourage violence and moshing, etc, BUT where's the fun in that?

Plus, Kansas wrote a song and hired the worst vocal talent they could find to produce this video to accompany the Capers this week!



Up Next: The typical Wizard-of-Oz-themed parody ending is up next. (Note: doesn't include knocking boots)

Ah, those damned monkeys continue to be a source of frustration. What do you think of the instruments that each person has selected? What do you think of D'Ron on bass, or Minestrone on the drums? I forget what Beardo is supposed to be playing, lol.

This is our second visit to the Emerald Pity Pawn Shop (now it's been named). Do you remember this shop owner from From Busk Till Pawn? If you recall, he really liked Cracker Jacks.

Bands that SKIP together, STAY together.

One more Wizard of Oz homage, ripping off the fairly iconic image of the gang skipping along the yellow-brick road. PLUS, It's not often we get a fairly comprehensive view of the street, so there's some decent perspective here in this scene.

This wraps up Act I, with the plot in full swing -- what do you think happens next? I feel like most stories that try and do a parody of a specific film (like Star Wars) are a little TOO faithful from scene to scene, and they just try tobe sarcastic in each scene. In this, I'm aiming to instead just have jokes related to the Wizard of Oz, but I'm not hellbent on copying the literal story narrative. So expect more Wizard jokes, but don't expect them to follow the story very faithfully -- that's just not as funny!

My brother made an excellent point, though, that the beginning few scenes should have been in black and white, and that's a great idea! I wish I'd thought of that!

THAT'S IT! You're OUT of the BAND!

I'm sprinkling in some Wizard of Oz gags throughout the Caper this time around, can you spot them as we go? Hint, there's one here .... (on the bus!) Also, I love that Kansas's Richard Williams has an eye patch - -SO bad ass!

So, how analogous to the film, The Wizard of Oz, do you think I'm going to be able to be with this Caper? I had to stray from the story, but I feel it's for the best. Hope you're enjoying it!
