whats ur least favorite moment


please dont flood this thread with "ohh i loved it all there was nothing bad" if u think there was nothing bad then just say what u think u wud have changed or something

i reckon the worst part was where ed was doing the james brown impression i LOOOVE the whole impression but when you starts saying things from the bands veiw he goes "i don't know all I know is that he be paying just to say "Yeh""

just before he sais yeh u can see he hesitated, im not sure but it luks like we can flem and he had to swollow which prevented him from saying "Yeh"

any thoughts??

My least favorite part was when he was imitating his dad (?) talking about the big fire and bigfoot wife, there was a couple of funny jokes but it just went on for too long.

You gotta be kidding, jun!

That was the best part!

Hopelessly in love with Uma Thurman, Maggie Gyllenhaal, and Emmy Rossum

This is probaly everyones favourite bit of delirious. In Raw everyone goes crazy when he gets back onto the topic of his father again.

"I aint cookin' brontosaurus burgers in this *beep* Gus"

reply

I think the Stevie Wonder joke was hilarious, especially when he says you gotta cut Steve off before he starts rambling.

"Shut the *beep* up, Steve."

The James Brown things was hilarious too, followed closely by 'ICE CREEAAAMMM!!!"

reply

I agree there were some funny moments during that scene, but after a while it got hard to follow; it was like is he still doing his drunk father or has he moved onto the next bit...

I wouldn't spend 5 days camping if I was...camping!

reply

Well, I thought all those scenes were hilarious.

My least favorite, but still funny is the ice cream man routine.

I don't like the stuff about gay people and AIDS, because it's just so dated. Funny though (not "ha-ha" funny) that people used to really believe that AIDS came from gays.

I loved the part about his drunken dad:

Gus, the fire is to big, Every year you come round and burn the *beep* back yard down. I'm cooking ham burgers here i'm not cooking a *beep* brontosaurus. hahahaha


reply

Band member 1: What the *beep* is James saying?

Band member 2: I don't know, but we gettin' paid, so keep singing.

*they go back to singing*

Yeah!

That pause is the transition from their side conversation back to singing. It's intentional.

My least favourite part is how he shuts down after the gig. If I had just performed such a hysterical set to that sycophantic crowd, there is no way I could have gone off stage with my "too cool" face on. And yes, even if he was tired.

Least favourite was talking about his mom hitting him with her shoe
