2011 Melb Int. Comedy Festival - Greg Proops
Friday, April 22, 2011 7:00pm
Athenaeum Theatre One
Melbourne, VIC
As part of Melbourne comedy Festival we were lucky enough to have on exceptional comedian visit us-Greg Proops. Front row center baby- Yeah! Greg is one exceptional stand-up, with hilarity all the way thorough. He happens to be the first comic ever to rip into Melbourne and get away with it. He can sum up each Australian state in one sentence and still make you laugh. Greg even manages to point out American flaws, white trash and how fucked up this country is without getting boo'ed off the stage. Melbourne is all about "eating bread, sipping a late' and wearing black", and we have a "lovely river of sewage".- Classic!
We even found out a little about Greg that is from Sanfransisco but isn't gay- He just speaks that way, If he walks on the beaches of Hawaii he looks like Kate Moss compared to everyone else there and that he has eaten so much Melbourne bread that his "roids will acquire rope burn"
If he is ever in your local city- Go and see him! even if you are not familiar with his work, His stand -up comedy is nothing be shunned upon and a guaranteed night full of laughs
Now I tried to get photos/footage but guess what - My camera got confiscated away. Greg told them It was fine for me to do it and said he felt sorry for me, called me baby and said "How about everyone else taking photos". At least he could make jokes out of it all, but when I got my camera back after arguing with every douchbag in the venue It was covered in grease and every photo was deleted. Apparently it had 60 photos on it, even though I only took 2 of Greg, so that make it 58 personal shots gone forever. You can't get that kind of thing back. I Got a big argument with them, and even called them fucking cunts. which they are, they have no right to take away my personal property, and to delete photos without my permission. especially when there were heaps of others using cameras and I got permission for Greg Proops himself.
Greg Proops - Elsewhere CD
Lets just say that there was less than 10 of these sold, The lady at the booth was so happy and surprised that I wanted one, I pretty much had to convince her to sell me a copy. So I'm only going to post this up if you promise to help out and actually buy a copy for yourself. So this download is only for listening purposes before you grab your own original copy. If you love him enough you will see him too- It's worth every penny. http://www.mediafire.com/?h3fra0e415cmwum
