clootie Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 I've managed to get hold of some tickets to see Michael McIntyre on Friday and I'm taking my DD who absolutely loves him, she's in tears of laughter every time she watches him perform on tv. I've got 4 rows from the stage so good seats too even if I did pay way over the odds for them I was planning to keep it a secret from DD until nearer the day but as is the norm for me with presents, I'm too excited to see the expression on the recipients face so I told her yesterday. I think the only word to describe the noise that came out of her is "squeak" !! Mind you, when I asked her to guess what the present could be, the first thing she said was "Is it a chinchilla?" Close but no cigar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinnamon Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 My daughter saw him last year & loved him. She also met him after the gig & said he was the nicest of all the comedians she had met, & was genuinely pleased to see & meet his fans,unlike some others (naming no names Dylan Moran) I would love to see him too I think he is a proper old school comic - not too smutty,just darn funny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clootie Posted July 20, 2009 Author Share Posted July 20, 2009 I totally agree Sarah. I can't stand comedians who have to rely on toilet humour. Love the photo, I might have to just hover around afterwards !! Thanks for the heads up !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubereglu Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 I hope you both have fun! Sounds great-my friend saw him doing a warm up gig at the Octagon a few months ago and said he was ace-I was very jealous! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chick wiggle Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 I love michael mcintyre! I'm so jealous! If DD can't make it for any reason bagsies 1st refusal on tickets have a great time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlo Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 We are on the waiting list for The Anvil dates as I didn't see them in time to get tickets. There is something just great about having a few belly laughs and he is a brilliant comedian with razor sharp observations on the ordinary things around us. Having said that, OH doesn't get his humour! It is just the kids and me rolling around in stitches. Have a great time. (Going off now to see if I can book Bournemouth dates in October! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
