Doug Stanhope (ZOMG!!)

A few months ago I hadn't even heard of this guy. Now he's, without a doubt, my favorite comedian. After watching his DVD "No Refunds" (highly recommended obv), I checked to see if he had Houston on his tour schedule. He did; the show is tonight at this dive/biker bar called Walter's. It's pretty small to be hosting a comedian of Stanhope's fame, so I can only assume he's using such a venue to test new material. Anyway, I've got a sixer of Lone Star Lite I plan on having disposed of before we head off to the show. I'm pretty pumped up. Here are a couple short YouTube videos to give you an idea of how hilarious this guy is in case you've never seen his stuff:

"Fuck The French"



"You're Taking The Wrong Drugs"



"Would You Believe?"



I'm super hammered, but real quick:

It was awesome. I tried to bribe him to give me his red suit coat for $100, he said no. I yelled in the middle of his set "rotate the wig!" and he said "rotate the wig?, okay" and did it. Furthermore, after he shot down my offer to buy his suit coat, I told him, "a lot of people out there really like you, don't forget that," and he said, "okay," and smiled. Overall it was a fun night. Wow I'm drunk.
