I know what you mean about seeing her live. She came to Australia in the mid 90's and I went to see her. I knew she was very funny, but seeing her live was an absolute joy. Never mind the oxygen tank, I needed a change of underwear after nearly wetting my pants from laughter!!
I've always known how funny she is,but going to see her 'live',(3 times now),is a wholly different experience from watching her on tv.For one,you need your own oxygen tank,especially if you can't afford the best seats & you're up in the gods at the RAH,lol.Talk about altitude sickness! Actually,having your own Sherpa would be quite useful too! That said,being able to share this hilarious woman with dozens of others is an absolute treat.Listening to combined hysterical laughter is a real joy.
Hahahahaha,you're not wrong! I had a quick lie down in a dark room & I'm fine now! Co-incidently,I was watching 'An Audience With....' last night,from around 1984/5 on ITV3 whilst watching the clip of her singing 'Connie' on YT just as she burst into song on the tv. Synchronised VW,bizarre.
I listened to Victoria Wood and Julie Walters on our way to UK this year talk about LOL, my wife had to tell me to shut up, had tears rolling down my face did the same thing coming back from UK boy it made the trip 13 hours go by,
"I used to go bell-ringing once a week to meet boys. But it's not a great preparation for a mutually fulfilling sex life, bell-ringing. All that tugging, it's not good...." LOL!
Well,thanks for THAT image,lol.Soggy knickers,you gonna pay for my therapy now,woman?! We both know however she does have that effect on us,that's why most of the audience sit hunched over with their legs firmly crossed! That said,it's easier getting a drink at the bar during the interval 'cause most are winging their way to the loos! Yup,bladder control's a toughie,hahaha! ;-)
