What am I overlooking? All I can see about the Queen is that they'll be playing the National Anthem, not that she will be in attendance.

Someone help this puzzled Euro?


I just took it from Jeff's website where it says:

"Journey will be performing for the Queen of England at an exclusive polo match between the UK and US. The America's Polo Cup event takes place on 12th May 2007 at Historic Morven Park in the US."

So, I don't know if they actually are...the Queen does love horses & I imagine she is going to watch at least some of the match. I assume doing the Star Spangled Banner is at the beginning of the game, too.

I think you can be knighted but you don't get the designation of "Sir"

IF these guys were to ever do this, I would start the Biggest goddamned Blog and it would be ugly.

This has got to be the stupidest fucking post of all time. Sorry Dano, but dude, are you joking me?

However, Sir Friga? I just spit out water.

That's right.
It's called an honorary Knighthood, and the recipient of the honour isn't really supposed to use the title of 'Sir' - but they do.
For example, Sir Bob Geldof, he's Irish so his title was an honorary one, but we all call him Sir Bob despite that. :)

How does a female become knighted?

Elton John should have been knighted Madam John.

Seriously Susie, how do you knight a woman.

Instead of laying a sword to her head and saying the sacred vows,
you smack your schlong across her forehead and tell her to
"Start using that mouth like the good Lord intended you to use it
and serve your fucking King, Bithd." :lol:

The equivalent of a Knighthood for a woman is called a Damehood.

Like Dame Judi Dench, Dame Elizabeth Taylor etc.

The Queen herself doesn't always officiate at these ceremonies, sometimes it's Prince Charles.

And I'm not sure if the women get the sword tapped on the shoulders and the 'arise Dame whatever' speech - I think they just get the medal thingy pinned to their lapels.

The recipients go to Buckingham Palace and when their time comes, their name is called and they approach the podium in front of the Queen and receive their award.
I'm not sure if they still have to kneel before her these days, however.

I'll let you all know when I receive mine. :lol: :lol:
