Rob, although living in LA, is a member here; we've been to a couple of games together.  Other musically oriented Demon supporters are David Bland who some may remember from both the Go!! Show and Kommotion (he also attended games with Rob and myself) and the drummer from the Huxton Creepers, Archie Law.

Bruce Woodley is a huge Demon

Had a coffee with him before the Jeelong Preliminary Final

We were both Nervous Wrecks!! :)

 

I can't believe that nobody has posted this song, featuring Demon tragics Scared Weird Little Guys, the late Jim Keays, Wilbur Wilde and Russell Robertson, and brilliant footage of Barassi, Smith (Norm and Shaun), the Wiz, the Ox, Neita, Allen Jakovich, Big Carl, Jacko and of course my idol, among many others.

It's not that.

It's just that there has never been a player with the number 666.

I'll settle for 13 (Clarry, Yze, Jakovich)

For Demons supporters  I'm surprised no one has  said "Number of the Beast" :lol:

You must all be too young ;)

I did suggest some 6.66 from Salmon Hater. Got no love alas.

I love the Scared Weird Little Guys.

I remember walking through the MCG carpark after a Melbourne match in the 1980s. I walked past Jim Keays, who was also wearing a Demons scarf. I said "g'day Jim" or something similar. He looked at me, said nothing, looked away then kept walking. Oh well, never meet your heroes they say !! I suppose I shouldn't speak ill of the dead.

Definitely bringing the Charlie Spargo vibes.

Gus said on the latest podcast that he had made a play list for his dad called sticksy 2.0 on Spotify. I have been enjoying it all week.

The songs have new meaning knowing that they have been selected by gus for his dad

That's actually a killer playlist, feels like some late night Rage on ABC back in the 80s/90s or 3am drunk at a party somewhere

It's a little known fact that the 'Can Can' song is actually the 'Galop Infernal'. 

It is literally the song of the wild party going on in hell, personally led by the devil. Written by Jacques Offenbach as a mad parody of all the snobbery of classical music and performance at the time.

It also will lift you hair off your head with a good sound system or headphones and a proper orchestra and choir going at the full speed intended. Best I can find is from 1991!

 

INFERNAL GALLOP

This ball is original

with an infernal gallop

let's all give the signal!

Long live the hellish gallop!

Let's give the signal

with an infernal gallop!

Friends, long live the ball!

La la la la la!

I’M YOUR HOOCHIE COOCHE MAN

 

The gypsy man told my mother

Before l was born

l got a boy child’s coming

He gonna be a son of a gun

 

He gonna make pretty woman

Jump and shout

Then the world gonna know 

What this all about

 

Cause you know I’m here

Everybody knows I’m here

Yeah you know I’m a

hoochie coochie man

Everybody knows I’m here

 

I got a black cat bone

I got a mojo too

I got the Johnny Concheroo too

I’m gonna mess with you

 

I’m gonna make the girls lead me by

the hand

Then the world’s gonna know

The hoochie coochie man

 

But you know I’m here

Everybody knows I’m here

Yeah you know I’m  a hoochie

coochie man

Everybody knows I’m here

 

On the seventh hour

On the seventh day

On the seventh month

The seven doctors said

He was born for good luck

And you’ll see I got seven

hundred dollars 

Don’t you mess with me  

 

But you know I’m here 

Yeah you know I’m a hoochie

coochie man

Everybody knows I’m here

It was, but I learned the entire drum solo when younger and the rhythm still sticks inside the head. So I play it, moderately often.

As an obsessive Bond fan, John Barry always calms me. Multiple Bond scores will very likely settle the nerves today.

The connection of what's at the end of Satan's rainbow and the cool demon at the end of the clip complete seem appropriate;

And  as the Temper Trap are huge MFC supporters a shout out to them also

 

Fader is a great track. Love it. As West Aussies, pity they're not playing Optus. I figure they're probably not a band anymore.

Love this one: Oh I do love my Saturday arvo

 


This one really gets me in the feels, reminds me of walking to the footy with the old man, he resplendent in Dees merch from head to toe. Love ya dad, miss you and heading along to the G, Waverley, Kardinia park and the grounds in between.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
