My Perth Trip!
Posted by fridgy on May 14, 2008
Well well well, great to be back over in WA! Sure the weather sucked, but great fun seeing friends and family (who are all probably sick of me saying HOW MUCH the weather sucked), and doing a bunch of gigs!
The shows went fantastic – Wednesday I was the MC at the Brass Monkey. Was heaps of fun (well, there was one UN-FUN part where I may have forgotten some of my material and babbled on stage about how awesome memory loss at 25 years old is!), but overall the gig was tops! There were a couple of acts from the UK – Eddie Brimson (headline) and Alan Anderson (feature) who were both great. A little hard to understand Alan as he sounded like Braveheart with a microphone, but a great comic and really nice bloke!
Next night it was on to the Charles Hotel (Comedy Lounge). A really decent sized crowd, all who who enjoyed the night (again with Alan, Eddie, and myself) as well as another UK fella Chris Kent. He was Irish (and funny). So I was the only Aussie. I felt really left out. So I ate some mushy peas and felt better.
My final gig was at Lazy Susans, at the Brisbane Hotel. Wow. Wowee. What an unbelievable night that was! Amazing crowd, who just lapped it up. Again Alan killed on his last WA show. You know it’s a ripper night when I had to say to the audience ‘stop laughing, you’re making it too easy for me…’
So that’s about it! Other stories from the trip include being out blind on Saturday night and me telling a girl to stop being jealous because all the guys were talking to her hot friend and not her. What. She deserved it. (I might have also called her a little bit ugly). I can’t remember. Again, she deserved it. Oh yeah, and my 19 year old brother pashed a 37 YEAR OLD!! Ha ha what a legend. Sure she was half passed out but it’s still a good effort. Mainly because he was half passed out as well.
This post was long wasn’t it!? Anyways, check back soon, and have a great what’s-left-of-the-week!
Take care all!
Done.
