Scraping the barrel for this one…

Hi there friends of Fridgy.com!

As I mentioned in my title, I really don’t have many things to talk about today. So I’ll keep it short and sweet. Speaking of sweet, I just went and ate a spoonful of Nutella out of the jar. Delicious. Seriously, do yourself a favour and re-discover Nutella. Spread of Kings!

So I’ve been hitting the gym up again. That’s been interesting. You forget how weak you get when you haven’t worked out properly in a while. In my case I didn’t forget as I am always weak, regardless of whether I’m working out or not. It’s amazing how you really experience the extreme highs and extreme lows of perving in a gym. Hot girl sweating – awesome. Fat old man sweating – yuck.

I’ve just added some new shows for December at the Boatshed and also Oatley Hotel. Read more

Back from the US. Alive, hungover, and much cooler.

Hey there world.

Well, it’s been an amazing last couple of weeks. Purely because a percentage of that time was spent in Las Vegas. Oh Las Vegas. I had forgotten how dangerous and out of control that place is. I have been on many boys weekends and ‘benders’ before but they all feel like a pat on the back when I compare them to the raping Las Vegas gave me and my bank account.

Great fun though and while I was there I went to a comedy club in LA. It’s called The Comedy Store and there were about 100 seats. Only about 6 of them had a bum in it. It would have been like performing at a Casey Donovan album launch. An empty room and the people who did come along were bitterly disappointed. (notice how I didn’t do any fat jokes, kept it clean. What a nice guy.)

Moments (well about an hour) before a gig!

Hey gang,

Just a quick post to let you know I am well and I hope your lives have been spectacular this last couple of weeks. I’ve been really busy lately with voice-over work and other various bits and pieces. I’ve also joined a tennis competition and last night I lost to a 40 year old overweight fat man. He was probably a virgin and maybe a pervert. Ok, that’s pretty harsh, he wasn’t fat either, just kinda dumpy. He’s been playing all his life and his serve was faster than my fingers typing this right now (as I’m kinda late for a gig). Man that was embarassing getting thumped by a middle-aged dad. Fortunately, not all aspects of my sporting life have been terrible this week, as we made our soccer grand-final this weekend! Can’t wait. If we win, keep an eye out for me drunk in the Cross. And if we lose, keep an eye out for me drunk in the Cross.

I’m about to go play the Kit and Kaboodle (Sugarmill) in Darlinghurst. I’m the MC and I haven’t done a gig in 2 weeks and was just looking over my material feeling a little rusty. Hope I remember it all! I can’t read my own scribble / setlist either. Does that say “eyemask” or “eyemash” as those two things are substantially different. I don’t even know what an eyemash is. Either way it sounds dangerous. Also, I wanted to try a new joke tonight so if I do, I’ll let you know how it goes… Only if it goes well of course – if it dies in the arse then I’ll get on here and lie saying how I forgot to do it.

OK, well just got back from the gig and I did the new joke………..and………..it didn’t go that great. Bummer. Looks like it’s back to the drawing board. At least I was honest. ;)

Talk soon friends – thanks for stopping byyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy…
Done.

Aaaaall over the shop!

Hi folks!

Well old mate Fridgy has been flat out these last few weeks. I’ve been travelling to all corners of the country to perform comedy to thousands of people just like Jerry Seinfeld. Ok, almost that entire sentence was either a lie or exaggeration.

I HAVE travelled around a little lately to perform comedy. However it wasn’t exactly ALL around our fantastic country. I went to Salamander Bay last Saturday and just yesterday got back from a gig in the snow. So I didn’t even leave NSW and there were probably a total of 150 people if you combine both of those audiences. Finally, I am nothing like Jerry Seinfeld. I’m not a millionaire, my teeth are no-where near as white as his, although I DO own sneakers. I wonder why they’re called ‘sneakers’. Are they for sneaking around? Am I right!? That means by soccer boots should be called ‘kickers’. GET IT! Now THAT was something Jerry Seinfeld would say.

Here is my “latest few gigs report”: Read more

Most Controversial Michael Jackson Blog Update Ever!

Ok, so I couldn’t have lied more in that title.

This isn’t controversial at all, however I find it strange how much everyone seems to have an opinion of his death and the kind of person he was. The guy made fantastic music when I was a kid and since then became pretty strange. Him passing away doesn’t affect my life, nor 99% of the population so why people get so

1. sad and upset, or
2. angry and abusive of the guy and his behaviour

absolutely baffles me! Pay your respects to a legend, of course. However whether he is dead, or sitting at home designing roller-coasters for Neverland – it doesn’t matter. None of us knew him. We can still go buy his CD, just like we’ve been able to for the past 20 years. Of course it’s sad when an influential person dies and I respect that, but I do find it confusing when people are wailing on TV saying they “are going to miss him so much”. Incorrect. Only a handful of people are going to miss him. Everyone else just won’t be able to watch him live when he tours next. Go on youtube, watch one of his film clips and have a Panadol.

RIP Michael Jackson, and RIP all the other people around the world that died that day, and RIP all the people around the world who have died since that day.

Ok, so that was all a bit serious. I felt like Alan Jones for a second then: opinionated, although perhaps a little less flamboyant.

All is well in Camp Fridgy. Did the Manly Boatshed on Monday which went fantastic. Great crowd and it’s always nice to do well at that venue as many comics go there to die. Manly Boatshed – more like Manly BoatDEAD! Am I right!!! Get it!! *sigh*

Also performed at The Oatley Hotel last night. Sure there was more people in the TAB than watching the comedy, but it was still a great gig and I called two sisters ‘lesbians’. Creepy, yet somehow very attractive. :)

Ok, check back soon friends!
Done.
