i'm terribly rude

oh, my mother would be so proud...

please forgive me; i'm about to get all giggly for a bit. this evening I sat down with The Shoelace to indulge in a bit of viewing of the new Mighty Boosh Live DVD. you may be a fan of the show. you may never have heard of it.

i fall into the previous category.

so we decided to watch the behind-the-scenes documentary on the disc. about ten minutes in i realised that much of the footage was taken at Brixton Academy on the night i was there. 'Hurrah,' thought i, isn't it nice to see something you were at; on screen at a later date. you, like, get a little insight as to what was going on backstage and stuff.
how lovely.
then the camera swoops out over the audience.. and there i am in all my Plain Lazy-hoodied glory.
ah-ha!
what a thrill.
me, on a dvd.
lovely.

so that was nice. but it didn't end there. that same evening, the performance was riddled with what can only be descibed as an idiot-fuckwit who thought he was funny, heckling... badly, and generally getting on everyone's tits. especially Noel & Julian, the mighty boosh themselves.
i'll cut a long story a bit shorter. noel, so irritated by this idiot encouraged the audience to shout 'shut the fuck up' at him.

i didn't think this quite enough
i thought he deserved more
and at the very tippetty-top of my voice
for all to hear
added the words
'YOU CUNT'

a little event that made it onto the DVD.
also, cut to backstage later where the guys are talking about the twat heckler
and they mention someone shouting 'you cunt' at him.
and they liked it.

and part of me is sorry for shouting that word.
but a bigger part of me is quite smug that the boosh said i have "really good comic timing."

and it IS only a word.

hey, some people I know sell cunt colouring books in their shop.

anyway, i don't care, Noel Fielding said i was cool on a top-selling dvd.

awesome in a tin.
