Did I leave the gas on?

So, since there seems to be quite a few Izzard fans on this site, I wondered if any of you were going to see him live. We're getting a bunch of people together to see him here (in Minneapolis) in September. Is he coming to your town, too? :)

According to his web site [izzard.com], Eddie will be bringing the "SeXiE" to Los Angeles in mid-late September of this year.

I may be compelled to attend.

That does actually sound somewhat painful.

And I imagine Jason may not be too pleased about it either.

Uh, it's a pet name, actually. Really. Y'know, because he's, um, tall. Like a castle...

Look over there - what in the world could that be?

My sweetie got tickets for me to see him in early Sept (by birthday) here in S.F.

Woohoo!

I think you meant to say, "Le singe est sur la table."

/Le mode pédant inactivé

Sorry, i couldn't resist. I didn't want those twenty-four credits of French from UVM to go completely to waste. :-)

Although, i must admit, all the credits in Computer Science, Physics, English, and Public Speaking seem to have been pretty much for naught. It has been so long since i had something truly useful to say in public, i can't even remember...!

If i were to "make them dress up like Katie Couric," then i guess they would be wearing a giant colon costume [colossalcolon.com], and a baseball cap with a peacock logo.

Seems strangely appropriate that one of GE's most famous talking-head media representatives shares close ties with all things rectal. It's almost poetic.

Well, I'm not as lucky as I thought - I waited too damn long to get the tickets, and now we can't go. All sold out. Unless anyone happens to have 5 tickets just lying around for the September 27th show in Minneapolis that they'd like to get rid of...

Thought not. *sigh*

I can't get the tickets, damn! I'll kill everyone!

Check e-bay. For the last three or four concerts we've seen we paid face value (no service charge) for tickets we found on e-bay. Be patient. If the seller is asking too much no one will bid. The seller will then relist the tickets at a lower price.

Speaking of patient, could you ask your boy how that beer shipment is coming?

I've bugged him about that for a while now - this time it's not my fault. :) I'll work on him again today. Sorry, but remember, he is merely a man. I'll make him ship extra for the inconvenience.

Because there is a little organizational gene on the extra leg of our chromosome. Had I asked cgarcia about the shipment earlier I might have had my beer long ago.

Izzard is in LA this week... and I do not have the money to attend even a single performance...

Must wait to get the DVD.
