View Full Version : The New Cowbell Sucks
<p>I know it was a gift from an appreciative listener, and I in no way intend to belittle the gesture or the gift giver, but I simply DESPISE the sound of Ron's new cowbell. </p><p>It's thin, tinny, and has no balls. I need the bassy, gong-like quality of the classic cowbell - whether it's being rung for a prize winner or hurled at an asinine producer. </p><p>Please Ron, I implore you - stick with what works and shitcan that chimey, soulless piece of tin.<br /></p>

Yeah, it does sound very weak over the air, but as long as its being thrown at Dave, its sounds great to me.<br />

I posted the same thing in the listening thread. The new cowbell is missing that bassy thunk sound that would reverberate after a good strike.<br />

yeah, the old one sounded like a cartoon sound effect, it was more gooder.

East Side did say the new cowbell hurt more. I'm gonna cast the first vote for likeing the new cowbell. I don't know why the show can't be like the Saints with Deuce McCallister and Reggie Bush. We go with a two cowbell system. The old cowbell for prizes, the new cowbell for producer punishment. Long live the show of destany.

<p>How soon til the cowbell disappears forever?</p><p>the console getting beat up by it may cause a super memo to come down from corporate and put the cowbell on a 30 day double secret probation </p>

I also heard the cowbell used the Caller ID in the studio to harass someone, and has a canine/peanut butter problem.

<p><font size="2">I too posted my dislike for the new cowbell in the listening thread today. Along with the previously mentioned discrepancies, I don't like the fact that the "clacker" inside the bell tends to telegraph Ron's throw.

I don't know, but it sounds like the new cowbell still has the ringer inside. The old one only made noise when it was struck (or thown). The new one seems to make noise even when he's just moving it around and never really gets that one good BANG like the old one.

<p>What we need is more cowbell. Gotta have more cowbell. Not a new one but the old one. Hurled more often. Or a whole barrel of exact replicas of the old one...hurled in a rapid fire manner.</p><p>The new one IS way too tinny sounding. If it tinkled any more it would sound like the bells on the tips of Fezzie's shoes. Or the ones on along the edges of Dave's jester/fool hat. We need a nice brassy clang.</p>
