Posted: 4/29/06 at 1:14pmI just got 6th row seats to see her in Seattle! Who else is a big Kathy fan! Anyone seen her live before? Does she switch up her act for each city?
#1re: Kathy Griffin!!!
Posted: 4/29/06 at 1:19pmShe's playing here May 12th! It'll be my first time seeing her live, so I don't know anything about her current act, but I'm certainly looking forward to it!

Her new Bravo special "Strong Black Woman" is coming up in a few weeks. Can't wait for that either.
Report back about her May 12th performance. I'd love to know who she's going off on now!

I certainly will! She's playing on the mainstage at the RiverCenter, which is, like, a 2000 seat theater, and we maybe have a couple hundred gay men in this town, so I'm pretty sure I'll get a good seat.
What's up with her press photo? She's looking awfully glam these days....

I saw her a couple years ago do a two hour showcase at the comedy festival in Montreal. I brought my friend who doesn't care a whit about pop culture and who probably vaguely recognized about a third of the people she dished. He laughed uproariously from beginning to end, and that was the one show I worried he wouldn't "get" when I bought festival tickets.
We saw her again a couple of months ago, and I was worried during her red carpet hosting era she was drifting dangerously close to Joan Rivers-ville. I abhor Joan Rivers.
Well, we laughed our asses off again, this time for about an hour and 20 minutes. I realized she IS something like Joan Rivers, but with a heart and a soul.

Posted: 4/29/06 at 4:18pmDon't know about that, sorry. With luck she'll tell the great story of one of her own meets and greets with a celeb she had dished.

Kathy Griffin never fails to make me laugh my ass off. Her HBO special Hot Cup of Talk (circa 1998, I think) is still one of the funniest comedy specials I've ever seen.

Do you guys remember her TV show on MTV back in like...2000? Kathy Griffin's So-Called Reality TV Show, I think it was called?
It was hillarious--but nobody liked it...so of course it went off after 1 season, but I watched every episode.

Posted: 4/29/06 at 11:02pmI just saw Kathy in concert this past January and she was hillarious. Her material was very current as to what was going on at the time. Even though I have only seen her live once, I imagine no two Kathy shows are the same. Have a great time!

The show is tonight, but it doesn't look like I'm going to be able to make it. My boss seems to have no recollection of telling me I could have the night off.

Oh WW...I am so disappointed for you!
I finally watched Strong Black Woman last night and the Celine stuff was hilarious.
After that I put on Oxygen - they used to air Ellen but have replaced it with Tyra at 11pm...very disappointing!
Tyra was interviewing Celine in LV...I thought she was going to bark!

I LOVE HER!
"Like I've said, I've seen the Celine show several times, so she'll be singing Titanic and all the sudden a strofoam piano will swing over her head with a French Candian clown playing it and she doesnt look up and he doesnt look down."
