For those who don't know I am a high school science teacher.

Last year the teachers (myself included) blew everyone away with our mock rock performance.  So this year we have to do even better.  Many teachers have suggested going with an 80's theme.  Although I am not a fan of some of the music they suggested I think it will be funny to do songs like Devo's Whip It.

Last year we had a yoodler (sic?) inbetween each piece to tie them together.  This year I suggested that we have video game snippets to tie everything together.  It would also be cool to have the music and games in chronological order, but I didn't have anyone argree with my idea.  So, I would my fellow FF members to help me if you can.

Please post and discuss any ideas from 80's music, movies, games, etc. that we could do.  History and timelines could also be useful.  Thanks for your ideas and help.

Any Michael Jackson song. Teachers doing the Moonwalk would be really funny.

Screech, I mentioned Pac Man and hope they will do it.

The Big Boo, because of the recent Michael Jackson court case in Santa Maria, Ca (where I live) we will not be 'doing' him.

Lizard Dude, good suggestions, but we did Ice last year.

Deezer, I forgot about that one.  It is a must.  Thanks.

In my mind and in my car.

They wouldn’t pretty so bad, ain’t they?
That was a joke.
