John Cleese told an insane story where Monty Python were performing in Germany and their hosts wanted to take them for a tour of Dachau (because German welcoming party is touring their old atrocities?). So they said (in German accents) "quick shower and we go to Dachau."

Eric Idle follows that up with something better: They arrive at Dachau, but just before closing so the Germans won't let them in. Graham says "Tell them we're Jewish." And the Germans let them in!

Charlie McTruth There's a difference between mentioning Hitler completely out of context to elicit a cheap reaction... And mentioning Hitler in a stand-up routine ABOUT EUROPEAN HISTORY. Just because morons on the internet with no point to make name-drop Hitler in a pathetic attempt to get attention doesn't mean there is NEVER a reason to mention him. I'm afraid many people had reason to talk about Hitler LONG before internet trolls made his name shorthand for: "Ignore Me--I Have Nothing Of Value To Say".

Eddie's always better when he has a mic planted on him. Holding the microphone in his later shows seems to impede with his free-flowing physical comedy. Do planted mics cost a lot of money these days or what?
@freddoflintstono9321
8 жыл бұрын
+SethBlizzard Those mics are called Lavalier mics, and they cost about the same as a handheld (at least the good ones such made by Røde). Sometimes people like a handheld mic because it makes it easier to play with the volume and do sound effects - Eddie's Darth Vader is a good example of that. I guess he chooses his mic depending on what show he does.
