well well well

You need to help me think of a name for this tour. Last year was the NO SERIOUSLY, TAKE YOUR TOPS OFF TOUR 2008 and I am currently on the STEALING TEABAGS FROM DRESSING ROOMS TOUR OF GREAT BRITAIN 2009. I have stolen over 60 teabags. Suckaaaas. Next time they'll be wise to my caffeinated pilfery.

I am doing a tour of Australia next month and the one after. Here is where I'm going, and this is what I think of when I think of those places:

17 to 21 March: Adelaide (sharks, the beatles, Sia, nightswims, waiting for the green man)
2 to 26 April: Melbourne (waffles, the 80s robot busker man, sharks in the aquarium)
30 to 3 May: Sydney (imax sharks, sharks in the aquarium, actual sharks in the actual sea)
6 May: Brisbane (this is the first time I've been here, but I am imagining sharks may be on the agenda) 

Before then I am doing a few shows around the place, they are listed at www.myspace.com/phlaimeaux and include a show in Glasgow at the Glasgow Comedy Festival and one in Dublin at The Button Factory on 10 March. That one will be awesome as also performing will be The Rubber Bandits, who are much funnier than me. http://www.myspace.com/rubberbanditspranks

But enough about me. How the heck are you?

Hmm. I'm an Adelaidian, all i can think of for Adelaide is churches, pubs and the "balls".


Prehaps, the subtle yet holy wait for the green man to frighten the sharks, whilst at the pub drinking Coopers listening to the Beatles....

I'm a creative Genius.

Call the Adelaide leg of the tour: 'Let's all get Ade-laid', or 'If my show finished earlier, Adelaide two girls by now.'....Gold.


See you there. (Providing that the upcoming High Court Case of Twinings v O'Doherty rules in your favour.
)

I like this idea. I now feel 'sharks' should be in the title of the new tour. Maybe NO SHARKS UNLESS PERMISSION HAS BEEN SOUGHT FROM DAVID BEFOREHAND. You know, I don't want to come across as totally antishark here. If one is in a tank, and I get told about it and can perform the gig from inside a cage. The problem is when sharks don't tell you they are coming.
They dress as emo kids and heckle a lot

After reading this blog post yesterday I had a dream about a shark. I was on a big boat with a lot of people but I was lying at the edge which was only a few inches above water, I know, a real boat would be much higher but it was a dream..., anyhoo I was lying there minding my own business when a shark comes along and puts his nose/chin on my belly, everyone was like DON'T LOOK HIM IN THE EYE!!! but they were also saying, DON'T MOVE, which obviously I couldn't becuase there was a shark's nose on my belly, anyhoo after a short time he left.


that is my shark story.

David is also playing in The Dock (www. thedock. ie), Carrick on Shannon, Co Leitrim on 12th March...come along! You can go to the gig, have a laugh, take in the cultural sights too - like the second smallest church in the world...it'll be great!

Although I didn't hear this alarming story before about stealing of tea bags...i'll have my eye on you O'Doherty...

I think the tour should either be called:


"The Tiny Keyboards and Big Laughs (hopefully) Tour"


or


"The Bring Your Shinpads For All the ROFLing That Will Happen Tour"





If I'm not still doped up on painkillers from having my wisdom teeth out, I may be along to the Button Factory. I may be along anyway, I could make a much better audience member when out of my mind on painkillers.

"The Sharks Tour" seems like an obvious choice but at the same time people might be upset when they realise that what they're seeing is not "The Sharks", the self proclaimed "Pioneers of Neo-Rockabilly" or the other "The Sharks", who's hilariously bepunned band motto is "Blues With a Bite" or even the Sale Sharks rugby team who are internationally acclaimed for their gospell singing. The consternation that might erupt could be potentially devastastating. Best to keep things simple with the Aussies I find. "The David O'Doherty Comedy Entertainment Presentation Tour" is probably safe.




By the way, how is two months ago?

I stayed at the Ibis hotel where I went and saw you in Melb and I'm quite sure I blew their minds wondering how a single female could deplete their entire room alotment of tea, coffee and sugar, I didn't use any, but I felt they owed me for subjecting me to the Ibis experience.
