Gig 22 -The Second LLC.

hello. It's midnight, and i'm waiting for the rice cooker to go so i can have my dinner after long live comedy's second outing.
this is the first time i've done the blog while still a bit pissed after the gig.

It was a good one again. Still enough of an audence to justify the whole excercise. I forgot to turn on my tape recorder, so I'll have to try and remember how it went. I did a lot of stuff based on TV themes, there was good and bad- they liked my B.A. based A team lyrics, didn't go so much with the murdoch stuff.

Christian Steel was our unwilling headliner, Sahra Millican switched to an earlier spot as she

Balls - this s taking ages i'm going to save as draft and finish in the morning.

Right! Bright and breezy now! As I was saying 12 hours ago, Sahra had been gigging for a few days and needed an early night, so she went on in the first section and Christian took over as headliner - and stormed it, apart from a weird idea about racing kid/midgets like greyhound chasing savlon (I can't quite remember) it was the best set I've ever seen him do. Anyway - for a rundown of the night go to the long live comdey site.

The big 3 were mostly acting as comperes this week, doing new material in 5 minute links between the other acts. As I said, I did a lot of music stuff - the Johnny B. Goode bit, based on yesterday's entry, and some (fairly cheap) bits based on TV themes.. heres my a team lyrics, to go over the rock guitar bit

"Look at BA he's clearly the best one
just look at all the gold he's got
he went to the jewelers in cash converters
and said I'll have the fucking lot.

he even cares for kids with learning problems
he has set up a special school
some people look down on the mentally disadvantaged
But BA he pities the fool"

-but strangely intolerant of howling mad murdoch, charity begins at home BA.

"Howlin' mad murdoch totally crazy
after all - he'd seen the horrors of war
he'd dropped nepalm on vietcong strong holds
and killed rice farmers by the score

(Over the 'middle 8?' of the tune)
burning death
will fall upon you
like rain
but it will
take your skin off."

DA DA DA DA DA....

-Then pointed out that he's not really THAT crazy, maybe 'delightfully eccentric' murdoch would be better

"If were honest he's not that crazy
but in one episode he talked to a plant
but he was still sane enough to fly helicopters
and take part in elaborate plans"

There there also was face what was the point of him?
The show was supposed to appeal to young boys, but his special thing was he was slightly handsome. He certainly wasn't my favourite and anyone who says he was is lying.
