As a geology student, I cannot tell you how much I or everyone else in the CSUS geology department love this song. It's playing in my head whenever the teacher holds down a barbed wire fence for the class to cross lol.
I suppose that they pretend to show themselves like 19-century old geologists, with shirt and tie and, of course, by those times, Estwing still had not yet the rock hummer monopoly.
I know. It's the geologists fault. They are boulder than most, they lead healthy lives and take tonics seriously. They lava good joke but get hammered and stoned too much. So when dealing with Geos, be gneiss and don't take them for granite. Bada bing, bada boom.
60's hell! I worked at Lockheed Martin BEFORE it was LMCO, and the nerds (rocket scientists) still look the same. Lots of rockhounds in their ranks, too.
You know, as an incoming undergrad student, I've been undecided about which branch of science to choose as my major. But after seeing this epicness...yeah, looks I'm gonna be a geologist.
I'd like to see you guys dressed up as Catholic monks (priests, or bishops) and do one called: THE PROTESTANTS ARE COMING! As for this video: brilliant!
for anyone who wants to sing along while watching this, i typed the lyrics down (i could use this for myself but you could use this comment too lol) [Verse 1] They carry tiny hammers, they're chipping at the crust Like a John Fante novel, they're inclined to ask the dust Converging on the continents, they're fearless and they're brave They're cruising down through canyons and exploring every cave Uncovering the mysteries of the planet's history Deep into the Cambrian for all the world to see [Chorus] The geologists are coming Yes, they're trudging down the hill When they say that mountain's young They're talking ten to twenty mil They're classifying rocks from destruction to rebirth The geologists are coming, they're converging on the Earth [Verse 2] The "G" is for granite, the "E" is for eon "O" is the outcrop which they're inclined to be on "L" is for the layers showing how things have evolved The "O" is for "Oh my, another puzzle to be solved!" The second "G" is meant to give a little bit more insight For nine times out of ten, a granite rock is granodiorite The "I" is for igneous, the "S" is for sand The "T" is for the timeline that they're holding in their hand [Chorus] The geologists are coming, they're emerging from their tents Braving steep volcanoes to explore volcanic vents They take note on the processes that shape the planet's crust They're driven to inquire, explore this Earth they must [Outro] The geologists are coming Yes, they're trudging down the hill When they say that mountain's young They're talking ten to twenty mil They're classifying rocks from destruction to rebirth The geologists are coming, they're converging on the Earth
