  • Boosh Live Anyone?

    Ha im so forgetful a lot of my stuff is way out of order. I still need to finish writing up the whole Russell Howard thing which was WAY before boosh signing. Okay this was after but ive only just written THAT up and this was only 6 days after.

    Yeah so anyway, WE WENT TO THE MIGHTY BOOSH LIVE!! In Nottingham :).
    'We' Me and my friends Beth and Natalie (only fellow boosh fanatics i know) and Will, Beths friends who's 18 and therefore our 'legal adult' for the evening.

    So we got a train etc, taxi and got out at Nottingham [ice] Arena! It was pretty big and made us fairly [very] excited.

    Then so we got our programs which are quite immense. There in like a brown paper envolope thing all decorated nice and booshy and then inside you get a reasonably sized booklet with photos and pictures in it (it also included stickers) then as well you get Boosh like transfer tattoos and boosh crayons! I liked this :D.

    We next headed typically for the merchandise stand which was crowded with an array of hitchers, old greggs and crack foxes. Took us a while due to large [crushing] crowd but we got there all ordering [the same] T-Shirts (boosh live black ones with tour dates on the back, on boosh website), before relising we had got the wrong sizes and queuing up AGAIN to exchange.

    Ahhh it was SO exciting while waiting for curtains!! With Tusk [fleetwood Mac] etc playing and the booshiful curtains etc. Dispite our Not-so-great-but-better-than-we-thought seats.

    So the first act, as before, was mainly their more stand-uppy bits but while introduing characters etc, i prefered this half. All of it was good but i love their banter etc and any heckler induced improv. They are amazing as a double act, play off each other so well. Plus the chemistry and friendship[/sexual tension :roll:] adds to the overall feel of it.

    So then second half. Alsooo immense and included several revealing constumes which i enjoyed on Julian :D. [Stops being stalkerish and shuts up]

    The character Sunflash also appeared played by Noel, his laugh and 'Chavese' accent will make you hit your head on the seat with laughter, don't let thats deter you though...

    The hitcher made his way through the audience at one point very close to our crap seats, I couldnt follow him though for most of it untill he was RIGHT behind us, the person behind stood up and grabbed him, hugging him and someone passed him a box...whic i pretty sure he then kicked.

    The tackled heckling amazingly, most say Noel in particular's stand-up style can be quite unprofessional at times, but the way he deals with the crowd is pretty skilled.

    Basically amazing, i wanna go again...[but can't] Can't wait for the new Live DVD!

  • Tim Is God (on my Ex-Girlfriend's Hyundi)

    Know who i really like recently? Tim Minchin. :D

    tim

    Though I don't like his hair much and his eyes a lil scary...hes relly like sweet though. Ha and i like his Australian Accent.

    For those who don't know, he's kinda like a musical comdian, writing lil funny songs etc, that are hilarious. He plays piano (really well) at the same time and i think he can play guitar a lil.

    Whats that? A couple quote would be nice?

    Sure :roll::D.

    'But he doesn't want to seem self obsessed
    So he writes in third person'

    'Although my (quack fucking) Doctor says it's cool
    And that loads of (fat prick, shut up I'm not fat) Kids at school'

    'Your 5 year old princess in her size 14 tutu
    Only eats pizza like that because you do'

    'I’ll give you my piano'

    'We don’t eat pigs
    You don’t eat pigs
    It seems it’s been that way forever
    So if you don’t eat pigs
    And we don’t eat pigs
    Why not, not eat pigs together?'

    'He'll be dead of an aneurysm, before his own children-ism ten'

    'And if you are offended by strong language or blasphomy,
    maybe you should chuff off home
    Cause its only gonna get worse,
    only gonna get worse,
    only gonna get worse from now on...*cunts*...'

    'But having sex with my family
    That is just fucking great'

    YOUR SO LUCKY!!! ...that might have sounded a bit bitter...'

    MUST SEE HIM LIVE!

  • Boosh signing! Transcript things...

    Up at five, waiting in numbing cold for seven hours. Worth it? God, yes. Anyday.

    I sound a lil fangirlish here...which i was a lil bit...not intentionally mind. Just Julian made me shake loads and i went a bit light-headed-ish (yup new word) so i sound a bit high.

    Julian:[Eye-contact and smiles]Hi, how you doing?
    Me:Good thanks
    [Julian writes my name followed by an 'x']
    Julian:[Embarassingly noticing my irregularbreathing/shaking] You alright? [smiles encouragingly]
    Me: ...Yeah.

    [He passes the book over to Noel and i step to the slide slightly before he leans over the table to talk to me]

    Julian:[Pointing to my book and refering to my name] How do you say that then?
    [Me-Not quite hearing him and just looking at him till i realised what he said...embarassingly. He just waited, looking expectedly (see photo :D)]
    Me:Oh, its [pronouces phenetically]
    Julian:Ah[Reapeats]?
    Me:Yeah,It's irish
    Julian: Ah right [smiles and turns to next person]

    I then turn to Noel whos waiting and beaming.

    Noel:Hey, how are you?
    Me:Good thanks you?
    Noel:Im great thanks
    Noel:[Switched the sharpie in his hand for some reason before reaching for the book. Automatically i hold my hand out for it but he slides it across the table towards me so i go to pick it up.
    Noel:Oh wait, I'll shake your hand. [Switches sharpie in hands again]
    [We shake hands]
    Noel:Thanks
    Me:Thanks!

    The we were ushered out, a security guard saying 'Just remember to breathe' :DD
