Hey, everyone. "Moriarty" here with some Rumblings From The Lab.

I was lucky enough to attend several tapings of MR. SHOW in LA when it was still being produced for HBO. They used to run ads in the back of the LA WEEKLY to tell you when the shows were being taped, and you could just call and RSVP and go to see them. It was always more fun to see Bob and David and their great rotating cast of supporting players work live. I know that when I finally saw The Kids In The Hall live about six years ago, it was so much better than seeing them on TV. For anyone who didn’t get to see Mr. Show tape, you’re going to get a chance to see them anyway, and it sounds like you’re in for a treat if you do.

David Cross called me today and asked me if I’d run a list of dates they’re appearing. If they do well in these cities, who knows what might happen? They sound like they’d be willing to add second shows. I think Bob and David are anxious to get in front of an audience and enjoy performing and stop thinking about the bullshit involved in the RUN RONNIE RUN release (or the lack thereof) and just enjoy being MR. SHOW again.

Or at least, that’s the impression I got before David told me, “No, dude, it’s mainly for some quick, easy money.” But let’s pretend he never said that, okay?

Oh, man. There are so many shows that are close enough for me to attend that I’m starting to get crazy thoughts, like trying to hit San Diego, LA, San Francsico, and Sacramento... maybe Seattle, too... I mean... how many Mr. Show tours do you think there are ever going to be?

Hope I see you guys there.
