Considering the team is called The Wrong Bros, what could possibly go wrong 48 hours before launch?

  • The pilot being admitted to hospital? 
  • The transport company realising that the lorry they have (the biggest one you can drive on UK roads wiithout a police escort) is too small?
  • The gold bikinis that you had to get from the states getting stuck in Wales?
  • The girls that you have to go in the bikinis getting hit by a mystery bug & dropping out like flies?
  • The Princess Leia slave girl outfit which was beautifully made by Max at www.maxkane.net being left on a bus & taking a trip to Ponders End...by itself..
  • Realising that maybe wheels would be a good idea....

Surely not?

Good job there is always a plan B....ermmmm....

Anyone got a spare pilot/crane/gold bikinis/girls to go in gold bikinis/a map to Ponders End/any wheels?....

The Right Girls for The Wrong Bros.

So what do you need to give a blinding performance at RED BULL FLUGTAG 2008?...

Star Wars Theme - CHECK

Fully Working Light Sabres  CHECK (though the team leader's one is a bit bent)

12 girls dressed in gold bikinis like Princess Leia in Return of The Jedi - Erm...Not so check...

Having trawled the land (aka Facebook) to find 12 beautiful (lets face it, who wants to see a Jade Goody lookalike in a bikini), brave (would you wear a bikini in June in London?!) and generally up for it (interpret that any way you like!) ladies, I can safely say that organising the 2012 olympics would've been a helluva lot easier.

So why 12 girls? No idea. Why the bikini? HAVE YOU SEEN IT?! Plus we might as well milk the theme for all it's worth.

Slight issue in that NOONE sells it, despite there being an entire website www.leiasmetalbikini.com dedicated to it. 

So with a bit of begging, natural charm & the help of the ever lovely Scarlett L'amour we have 12 'normal' looking gold bikinis coming from the states (yes, I know we are creating a chewbacca sized carbon footprint, but if you can find gold bikinis in this country then you deserve a medal).

 

However, our beloved *insert sound of vomiting here* team leader/slave driver/alcoholic-in-training/sleazebag/ham solo has his heart set on the original outfit (with me in it-gulp).

And with just 12 days to go, not only is the plane in two bits (don't ask...at least they've chiselled it off the floor they glued it to first...oh yes..they did this) I have to find someone to make a replica outfit.....CAN ANY ONE KNIT?!......

Dear All 

The Bad Habit took some time out of their busy holy work three weeks ago to build the blessed flying wings, don’t panic there still was plenty of drinkin’, smokin’ and just dam right naughtiness from the habits.

There will be more footage of the NUNS day out coming soon so keep watching,

Bless you All,. Sister Audax Interfactor XX

Another good excuse not to show anyone our aircraft!

Why would you want to look at a big polystyrene plane when the Wrong Brothers team are so damned good at throwing press do's instead?!?

 

In honour of our latest TV coverage we hosted an exclusive photo shoot in the heart of the Clerkenwell Deathstar, everyone who’s anyone was there, the Jedi Council, Solo, Chewbacca, Leia, even that ponce Fett turned up and tried to blast everything in sight!

 

oh... and of course the Imperial dance troop....

Here we have the awesome Vertigo Stbuster, building their MASSIVE hearse, which is soon to be launched into the Serpentine! 

 

 

 

 

p.s. Just to let all the other regions know, the South teams are by far the best, all we have to do is wait until the day to show you!!
