I was on the phone with Miss Hattie Belle yesterday afternoon and casually clicking online when I saw that Craig was playing at Cobb's Comedy Club on September 14th i.e. that night. Since Hattie had intended to take me to see him for my b'dy and he canceled his shows, she jumped on the phone and voila... two tix to see the Scotsman at the late night performance... We got great seats and the warm up comedian (sorry I don't recall his name) had us in stitches... My god he was hilarious, which is more than I can say for Craig. I couldn't believe that he was still cracking the same jokes from two years ago... wasn't funny then, and it wasn't funny last night. Okay, not to be totally mean... there were a few moments. Sorry Craig, still love you on tv but you have to get new material... and stop reminding us how big your dick is... despite what you say, it's really no excuse for the slovenly attire.
Tomorrow is 3:10 to Yuma... let's see how our man Russ does on the big screen.
I saw the 1957 version of 3:10 to Yuma in Southeast Asia when I was a kid. (No, I'm not that old. There, classic westerns still draw a crowd, so theater managers like to dig into the archives and put them on once in a while.)
ReplyDeleteGlenn Ford plays Ben Wade, Russell Crowe's role in the new one. He was the villain, but he was so seductive and fascinating I began walking and talking like a cocky rebel for months to come (which wasn't the wisest thing to do in a country governed by a military regime).
