Big Jay Oakerson and Luis J Gomez Sing Grease
Earlier this month we reported that comedian Big Jay Oakerson would be one of the comedians performing in “Ha! The Musical” a musical about the business of comedy. And surely, like us, the big question on your mind has been, “Can Big Jay sing?” Those of you who can’t wait for Big Jay to debut in the upcoming comedy musical this August can finally have the answer to that question thanks to this new video released from The Legion of Skanks YouTube channel last night. Yes the guys are singing showtunes. Perhaps in preparation for the big musical event? We don’t know.
We actually have no idea why Big Jay and Luis J Gomez are singing “You’re the One That I Want” from Grease, the musical in this extended clip. All we know is that they are, and it made our morning. Not only do you get to hear the guys sing, but they also have sync’ed up their singing with the original video of Olivia Newton John and John Travolta, resulting in the strangest karaoke we’ve ever seen. The Legion of Skanks is a podcast featuring Big Jay Oakerson, Luis J Gomez and Dave Smith. If you know anything about the “Legion of Skanks” then you’d know that singing broadway hits is not a usual part of their repertoire. Actually you can probably figure that out just from the name “Legion of Skanks.”
The full episode of “Legion of Skanks”, hopefully explaining what led to this, will be released on Monday. In the meantime, enjoy watching Big Jay Oakerson and Luis J Gomez sing Grease.
