Subject: Ode-to-beer-fest on AmIright

Written By: K1chyd on 10/15/05 at 1:40 am

Do you guys and gals from all over the world have the Octoberfest tradition where you live, or is that just a north-european thing?

If you’re not familiar with it, let me break it down to you in just a few lines; it’s about drinking beer, a tradition that makes or claims that October is THE month for drinking beer, hence we drink even more than usual when we go out this month.

(OK, so it probably started out once in a distant past when a bunch of guys who had been spending most of that years warm summer nights with cold beers in their hands needed an excuse to continue doing that when the summer faded away, but lets ignore that for now). :-)

So, with a half full bottle of inspiration here beside me I’m suggesting that for the rest of this month we have our own Ode-to-beer-fest here on AmIright.

I suggest that links to parodies (new and old) about beer can be posted as replies on this thread.

Surprisingly enough I myself don’t have anything old on that subject but I’ve now written and submitted "Raise your beers" to Bon Jovi’s "Raise your hands" and I’ll come back to this post and link to it once it’s up.

Additional 2005-Oct-17: http://www.amiright.com/parody/80s/bonjovi48.shtml

And I'm doing seconds with another parody (working title simply "Ode to Beer") to The Beatles "Yesterday" and if I can stay sober long enough to finish it'll be coming in the next couple of days.

Additional 2005-Oct-17: I came to run with another idea instead of the above: "(As a) Beer falls away" to the unfortunately much less known "World falls away" by Seether: http://www.amiright.com/parody/2000s/seether9.shtml . But I'm linking to TOS to make up for that.

Cheers! // Peter

Nice idea, K1.  Nothing hits the spot like a beer parody.  ;D
Here are three of my own works for the occasion, and I might write more.

well if this isn't the perfect thread to post this parody (especially as it actually refers to Oktoberfest)...

Nothing'll Solve A Problem Like A Bee-er!

and yes, do we ever have Oktoberfest in Oz, Peter - although not a patch on the Munich one

Some places in America hold an Octoberfest (or is it "Oktoberfest") celebration this time of year --- and many liquor stores carry various "Octoberfest" beers this time of year, too.

Beer plays a central role in these 3 parodies:

"After Beer 2525"

"Duff, In Plastic Flagons"

"Keg-o-beer"


And beer is an important player in each of these parodies:

"Bar Trek"

"Boozeday Afternoon"

"Drunken Frantic Evening"

"O Stoli Night"

"Pre-Road Drunks"

"Tipsy"

"When You Piss Upon A Bar"

"Yellow Liver"

Link numero 3 and 4 are the same, I take it that one of them is wrong?

(I'm trying to check out at least one beer parody from each contributor to this thread, and I just happened to notice).
