macBeth

the most evil, bloddy, cursed and short plays ever written by Shakespeare. In the story, Lord MacBeth meets up with three witches who say he's going to be king of scotland. MacBeth decides to speed the process up a bit and kills the king of Scotland, King Duncan. As king he starts killing off anyone he fears until Duncan's son, Malcolm, and lord MacDuff form in army in England to overthrow MacBeth. In the end Malcolm becomes king, MacBeth's wife goes insane and kills herself and McDuff shows up on stage with MacBeth's head. The big thing is that the play is cursed and it's bad luck to say it in a theatre. Those who believe in the curse refer to it as "The Scottish Play".
All hail MacBeth, king of Scotland!

show tunes

The style of music in musicals. They can range from really freakin' annoying to wonderfully witty. They are used to convey an emotion in the character, continue the story of the play, create irony, or jsut about anything the writer wants.

Joe Cocker

The greatest British soul singer fo all time. He toured as Joe Cocker and the Grease Band for a while. His biggest songs were the Beatles "With a little help from my friends", "Feelin' Alright", "The Letter" and "Love Picked us up". The last one is his most annoying. It was for the movie "An Officer and a Gentlemen". It's jsut a really sappy song, but the rest are just kick ass!
Joe Cocker had some really weird moves.

Oh captian, my captian!

Orinally a poem post Civil War that makes a metaphor comparing Lincoln to a captian of a boat who dies at the end, the phrase became famous from the 1989 movie "The Dead Poet Society" staring Robin Williams. The whole point of the phrase is that William's character was an English teacher who had his student's address him with that phrase while standing on their desks.

General Lee

The car form the "Duke's of Hazard" TV show. It's a 1969, Dodger charger with altered engine, the number 01 on painted on the sides and the doors welded shut like a typical racing car. It was named after general Robert E. Lee, commanding general of the main Confederate Army during the Civil War. His army was based out of Virgina due to it'd large population. This would account for the car's Rebel Flag paint job and it's horn that played the first few notes of "Dixie". The car's main purpose was to drive really fast and do a lot of sweet jumps while the duke boys hooted and hallered.
