I found this email in my inbox today, lying in wait like the sexy thing it is:
dear emo-philiac,
i am duty-bound to report this bittersweet news: my final show (for awhile, anyway) at hollywood's steve allen theater is this monday, june 18.
tickets are just ten dollars.
showtime is just 8pm.
and reservations are for woosies... just show up!
hoping you can make it,
i remain,
your eternal slave to mirth-purveying,
emo
Emo Philips is my favorite comedian in the whole wide world. Unfortunately, nobody I know under the age of 30 has heard of him (unless I've dragged them to one of his shows).
( This is my favoritest joke from my favoritest funnyman in the whole wide world with a cherry on top. )
That taping is older than I am, with outdated references to horse jingles, yet I prefer him over a lot of comedians famous today. (*koff*grammy-winning Jeff Foxworthy*koff*) I went to see him at the Queen Mary in February, and again at the Steve Allen Theater just last month. Both times I think I hyperventilated in my seat. His hair is short now, and he let it go completely white so he looks even crazier than he does here. I wuv him. T3T
If you guys have nothing to do on Monday... you can watch Steve Carrell as a special guest on the Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Or you can go to Emo Philip's show. Whichever, you know. :D (More information about future shows on his website.)
