The t-shirt\cake etc were the lamest parts for my money, and the Q&A section is frankly an embarsment these days, and should be dropped in my opinion. People are aparently unable to string a sentence together these days, and are reduced to just spouting crap "d'ya like essex" "ever been ta chelmsford" i can live without these Paxman-esqe questions!Pileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15540380685492699957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-47636629640428119.post-58469682401489947862007-10-18T01:00:00.000+01:002007-10-18T01:00:00.000+01:00Yeah but didn't you notice how he treated the t.sh...Yeah but didn't you notice how he treated the t.shirt makers and cake bakers with contempt and got the rest of us laughing AT them! Thats what he's great at doing! The cake on the stage led onto a fun tale of how his roadies once nicked some cake he had left for him at another gig and all got stoned! He's not pandering to the gifters he's taking the piss out of them! And another thing, he has`always ended his shows with a Q&A with the audience - often the best bit!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-47636629640428119.post-88504546239063910682007-10-17T17:35:00.000+01:002007-10-17T17:35:00.000+01:00thanks for all your comments. ph - I would agree t...thanks for all your comments. <BR/><BR/>ph - I would agree that Nobles adlibbed stuff is far better than his scripted stuff, BUT the subjects of his scripted stuff should remain random and of his chosing - not forced (which is what its becomming).<BR/><BR/>Just how funny is a t-shirt saying "i'm with them" anyway??!! and how much comedy are you likely to get out of it??<BR/><BR/>PileyPileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15540380685492699957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-47636629640428119.post-75179154427532189592007-10-15T14:17:00.000+01:002007-10-15T14:17:00.000+01:00Sorry I did not enjoy the crap being placed on the...Sorry I did not enjoy the crap being placed on the stage.

It only seems to happen in Southend though for some reason.

He had me reeling in the first half, using targets of front row occupants, late comers, owners of bizarre laughs etc. as a starter for rambling comic mayhem.<BR/>Having first noticed that the majority of the audience were somewhat of a younger nature than in the past I was fearful that perhaps things may be dumbed down to a more prescriptive format to suit the wider range that he now seems attract. And in a way it was. What was to follow in the second half left me rather frustrated, and mildly annoyed. I have to agree with Piley that what was going on was more about the audience than the man I had come to see. I'm afraid Ross's new generation appear to want to be part of the act. All this induced was a series of whoops from sectors as their contribution was picked by Ross, followed by innane comments and shouts. Clearly Ross is perfectly adequate to deal with anything thrown at him from the audience, but I get the impression that the guy is actually worried about offending folk about this shit. For me he needs to bin it and stick to the old format, which is none.<BR/><BR/>MarlenesgoodhalfAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-47636629640428119.post-10351831486906729502007-10-11T23:04:00.000+01:002007-10-11T23:04:00.000+01:00Oh dear....I am gonna buck the trend and admit Í d...Oh dear....I am gonna buck the trend and admit Í don't find Nobles scripted comedy funny in the slightest. Never have done. But when he's randomly chatting to the audience about anything, even Kinder Eggs, home baked cakes, cryptic notes and the I'm with Them T-shirts etc thats the stuff I really like!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-47636629640428119.post-73849537774632511302007-10-11T20:41:00.000+01:002007-10-11T20:41:00.000+01:00Nice post Piley and I couldn't agree more having b...Nice post Piley and I couldn't agree more having been there with you (although I'm not your partner ......). The first half material was superb, the funeral gag and the Chav runway being winners with Ross's occasional switch to Essex lad being my favourite (the Chelmsford Car Auction quote of 'you fackin beauty' hard to forget !).<BR/><BR/>The problem with second half is people now have no fear and feel they can either put unfunny shite on stage, or as they get cockier, shout out meaningless drivel. That twat who felt he would tell people he saw Ross in Oz being the pick of the bunch.<BR/><BR/>Be interesting to see if this happens at other venues.E F RICEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323043569136307149noreply@blogger.com
