Conga Dance to Tony Christies Amarillo

[whiteash]

[color=#FF0000]Hi all,

Any of you interested in creating a conga dance to Tony Christies's Amarillo on Sunday?

If so here's the plan:

Meet to the right of the sound stage (as you face the stage) at the start of his set. At the start of the song it's off we go hopefully with hundreds in tow.

What do you think? Interested?

If there's a good response we'll plan in more detail.

Sounds like a World Record could be on the cards here...

...a quick bit of research shows the longest conga line consisted of 119,986 people. You need less than 70% of the Glasto crown - surely almost guaranteed - go for it!!

[LusciousLucy]

Bloody good idea...shouldnt be too pissed at this point...dont ask me to be capable by Tom though!

[whiteash]

That world record seems achievable!!! 3 down, 119,983 people to go.............

If anything we can set an all time Glastonbury record and have a good laugh along the way.

[daviddooner]

Wow that's an outstanding idea...world record or no world record. Just imagine an enormous humain train making it's way across Glastonbury...amazing!

And after it, all 119,987 of us can head to the Cider Bus for a toast!

Count me in, i'll see you there

[whiteash]

Excellent!

Come on everyone - only 119,982 people to go to break the world record!!!!

[AM91]

count me and 5 of my mates in

To be honest an organized meet for a conga line seems a bit silly...how hard would it be to start one with random people in the crowd! Just go for it there and then, this idea of a meet seems impractical, seeing as you won't even know for sure when he will play it.

But if your that nuts for the idea, then go for it!

[whiteash]

It's all about letting people know & if they want to be there all the better.

I agree that once we start loads will join in but at least in advance you know it's going to happen anyway.

It's all a bit of fun!

[planetcat]

There's 8 of us and we're all in!

[Keef]

Great shot for the BBC producers too - get your mug on the telly!

[BinThereDrummedThat]

Sorry to be a killjoy, but you wont get a world record.

a) It's unlikely there will be 120,000 watching Tony Christie

You'd have to inform Guiness World Records of your attempt, they'd have to have a "viewer" there and you'd have to prove over 120,000 people were involved.

c) You wouldnt get 120,000 joining it by the time the song has finished

But sounds fun anyway...if I'm there I'll keep an eye out for it!

[whiteash]

I know there's no hope of a world record. I only put it down as a laugh. If we got 50 people all having a good time then it's a result.

I reckon we should head off up the hill then across the field to finish up close enough to the Cider Bus for a well earned drink!!

[tonyonekenobi]

There's 8 of us and we're all in!

[themuel]

This sounds fun!!

Unfortunately I hate that song so I shall be as far away as I can possibly be.

Have fun though!

[dieweener]

Lmao, fantastic idea. I'll be joing in in, let me ask my gf....

She says yes! Count in me and my 4 other mates. Come on world record attempt!!!

[tinpottery]

Sounds like my Uncle Frank's 50th

.. and it is for that reason, i regret to inform you i won't be taking part, have a nice time though.

[daviddooner]

My 7 mates and some other mates of mates are well up for it.

We're thinking of all wearing something similar to distinguish ourselves...any ideas? Also be a great shot for the BBC cameras!

[dvb]

l oving this idea, could someone get an eavis or 2 in on it!,or maybe people hear bout participating from worthy fm or daily papers at glasto.

im so for it,ide love to make a cool world record at glasto,i was thinkin to tom jones,but christie is better to conga too!!!.

[RichieSpenno]

Count me and my mate in, even though he doesn't know it yet

[Neeeeeedles]

[WhatsThatSound111]

Surely you could break the world record for the most people in some kind of naked conga line?

[sjhopewell]

How about the world record for longest conga line in wellies...208 people

The biggest issue being the glorious sunshine!

[tinpottery]

Anyone prepared to watch Tony Christie deserves a world record!

[biscant]

I need full reassurance Christie will play Amarillo, if he does what Shakin Stevens did to people last year I actually vow to kill him, I will make it my destiny!
