@Jimmy_Barrett's Radio City show
Decided to post a copy of my pal @Jimmy_Barrett's @_RadioCity show from last week… just in case the TWFCC decides to remove it. Bravo JB!
A day or two before the show…
Hosting a film premier for It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World @_RadioCity on Sunday. Come for the bad acting, stay for the plot holes. #MMRC
It's a heist film starring Buddy Hackett, which suits him as he's been stealing my jokes for years. #mmrc
I'm not saying Hackett's new film is bad, but I heard that some critics have been walking out... into traffic... on purpose. #mmrc
Heard that @bobbie_barrett sent an invite to @lanepryce, one of the limeys running Sterling-Coo, to our shindig @_radiocity.
I don't care if the British are coming on Saturday; my joke about Queen Elizabeth and the deaf Japanese ambassador stays in the act. #mmrc
The @_radiocity mgmt just reminded me to advertise Sunday's show or else they'll replace me with Joey Bishop. I need the paycheck. #mmrc
Speaking of @_radiocity, saw Bye Bye Birdie there this year. Amazing architecture. Not the building, I meant Ann-Margret's brasserie. #mmrc
Have to ask @bobbie_barrett if my lawyer's retainer is paid up. Have a feeling I'm might need to call him after I do my act on Sun. #mmrc
Just before the show… the show… and then some…
Trying to finalize my outfit for tonight. Choices are a white dinner jacket or another white dinner jacket. #mmrc
A few minutes before show time, enough time to scout out a few Rockettes who want to further their careers.
I don't know what stinks worst: the corned beef at the deli next to @_radiocity or the film we're about to premiere.#mmrc
Where's @bobbie_barrett? I can't get my bow tie on straight?#mmrc
I just paid the kid sitting behind @don_draper $5 to kick the back of his seat for the whole show. #mmrc
With @lanepryce and @david_ogilvy sitting in the audience, there are more stiff Brits in @_radiocity than a London brothel.
Ok, so the joke about Queen Elizabeth and the deaf Japanese ambassador didn't go over as well as planned. #mmrc
My jokes might be received better if the audience was drunker... or if I was. I wonder if the liquor store on 49th can deliver... in bulk.
You're going to love tonight's movie, guys and gals. It's the best cure for insomnia since sominex.
I'm getting the signal to get off the stage, but one more joke.#mmrc
I think I got enough of the audience to walk out. That will teach Kramer for not putting me in his movie. #mmrc
I just heard @roger_sterling say he was going "abroad" and then he walked into the women's powder room. #mmrc
Took up too much time on stage. @_ethelmerman and @edie_adams are out for my blood. @bobbie_barrett can take care of this tomorrow #mmrc
Just got a look from @bettydraper that would stop a clock.#mmrc
@madmenparty The shapely ones between 18 and 23 can come in. #mmrc
Looks like the show is about to start. Good thing I snuck a bottle from the bar. http: //bit.ly/1i0xS #mmrc
