I've never really been interested in comedians, but lately I've been able to watch a good couple of live shows and shows on tv.
About a year ago, I was introduced to Jeff Dunham by a friend and ever since then I have watched that show so many times that I can probably recite it word for word, and between a couple of my mates and I we have our little inside jokes that relate to good old Jeff, with his puppets, and at the end of the day they're are so many people who actually know who Jeff is because he has become really popular recently.
My brother also absolutely loves Mike Naiker's comedy, who is a white south african comedian, that grew up in durban and is probably a better indian than most indians, at times he can be funny... Just not when I'm trying to work and I have my brother making me listen to this guy talking about fly fishing being childish because you tease fish with false and fake flies for hours and hours. ha ha!
George, my friend also introduced me to the world of Kevin Bloody Wilson, and we went to go watch him live at Carnival City, although I never actually got to watch his show - I watched his daughter open for him and I was horribly drunk, but from what I can remember I almost pissed myself laughing at this woman. Singing about Catholic Girls being nice girls.... and the fact that chocolate is better than sex, amongst other things that really hit home for me and the boys didn't understand why I was laughing so hard. I was laughing so hard because it would of been things that the boys didn't understand. Once Kevin Bloody Wilson finally came on stage, I went to go and look after a very drunk Brett. I was drunk too, so I can't really complain. Good night though, I just learnt that I mustn't drink beer because of how quickly it gets me drunk. ha ha!
The most recent comedian that I watched last night, that had been recorded on my PVR at home. Jim Jefferies, the Aussie living in the UK and performing in the USA. An absolute laugh. I loved watching it... Simple and small facts that man comes up with, are literally outstanding. Really hilarious, but also so bloody true. If you haven't heard of him - youtube him NOW! You seriously will not regret it :)
I'm really trying to get a hand on this blogging thing... not sure if its working though, oh well, its always better than actually working :)
