Another Sketch Challenge Cartoon. This time we were supposed to pick a celebrity who was born on August 25 and have them dancing with a Gargoyle. Don’t ask, I don’t come up with the ideas. I picked Rob Halford of the Heavy Metal Band Judas Priest. Of course how I titled this was completely innocent as I was making a play on the fact that Rob plays hard rock and is dancing with a hard rock (ie the gargoyle). Then our friend MJ at the National Free Press had to turn it all around. I’ll leave it to him to explain himself as I won’t have much internet access the next few days.
Strange thing to dance with but this song came to mind as soon as I saw it. In the words of Billy Idol;
If I had the chance I’d ask the Gargoyle to dance
And I’ll be dancin’ with a Gargoyle
Oh oh.
Dancing a-with a Gargoyle,
Oh, oh,
Dancing with a Gargoyle
Well, there’s nothing to lose
And there’s nothing to prove, well,
Dancing with a Gargoyle,
Oh, oh, oh….
What goes on in that mind?
My wife often asks the same question…
Never heard of the guy but I have never really been into hard rock… not even a cafe.
Is that a black tattoo on his head?
Yes he has a tattoo on his head… He is not gorbechev
Hahaha… excellent likeness…
ROCK ON, Bearman!
🙂
No You rock on rj
‘It’s great to be back here…
in OHIO!’
*thunderous applause*
(well, that’s how it works in my mind, anyway.)
🙂
Have you ever even been to Ohio?
Sheez, and here I thought it was because he was always stoned 🙁
He is clean now
Got his rocks off then? 🙂
Maybe
But if you pick a celebrity I’ve never heard of, how can I tell if it’s a good likeness?
Look if you would listen to stuff other than show tunes….
I never thought of gargoyles as female.
Look at the ones around notes dame…there are several females
The next time I’m in Paris I’ll be sure to check. Maybe that’s why it’s called Notre Dame?
Now you are learning
I don’t think that gargoyle realizes that Rob isn’t into the womans.
I can’t think of a non dirty response so I will let this comment go..haha
This is what goes on in the mind of Bearman every day.
And you know what?…it’s all good. Join the party!
Now if only I had your talent to express it
didn’t know gargoyles were female.
Are you going around sexing them?
I’m just going to leave it alone. Ha,ha,ha! But it was funny.
You started it
definitely into the hard rock…what about the heavy metal?!
Haha. Now you know
Hey I was born on August 25. Am I not celebrated enough for you? 😉
Well if you actually posted pics of your face! I would make a caricature of you.
I still quietly sing a little bit of ‘Breakin’ the Law’ every time I jaywalk.
Usually while I air guitar, but not always.
I mean… No I don’t!
Great now you got that stuck in my head
NIce, I like the play on words as well, what were you other choses if you didn’t pick him?
Gene Simmons…. There were a bunch that I can’t remember
I am honestly surprised you didn’t do Gene, but I am thinking that would have been too easy of a target.
Thought so too and several people did him
Not only there are female gargoyles, friends. Some are actually hot. Have a look at this: http://www.disneypicture.net/data/media/39/Gargoyles-Demona2.gif which brings back some memories…
I think I dated her!
What caused the break up
I was too short for her. Height wise I mean.
Hot? Hmmm I don’t think I would want to try and cuddle up with that.
I knew there were female gargoyles, but I’ve never seen one in a dress.
You need to get out more
A lot of people get upset if I say Judas Priest – like it was insulting Biblical somehow. I mean – Judas Priest – think it’s fun to say!
My wife’s mother made her say that instead of “Jesus christ”
I always imagine gargoyles in red dresses. I thought everyone else did too?
I always imagined you in a red dress too
You’ve got Rob Halford stuck between rock and roll and a hard place! Great image, looks just like him!
Thanks mark
Any cartoons with Judas Priest fun. Love the dress on the gargoyle.
I can see if they make your size
Did I miss the memo on character sketches? You’ve got them coming out all over the place from these “we” people! o.O [grin] Well done on both counts!
Just sent you a message on G+
Did he take her home? Gargoyles need love too.
I didn’t stay for the aftermath.
Billy Ray Cyrus. Because if the gargoyle gets to him early enough, we won’t have to listen to Miley Cyrus whine like, well, a spoiled rich punk.
Well given the number of spoiled rich punks in the world, that would be a busy Gargoyle.
