Kids in the Hall, remember them? They are a sketch comedy group that had a show in the late 1980's and early 1990's on FOX I think, much like Saturday Night Live. Well they performed live this last Sunday at the Arlene Schnitzer Hall here in Portland and I was in the audience. Besides a little vertigo I experienced (we were sitting on the mezzanine) it was so much fun! They performed all the great characters, including Chickenlady and Scott performed Buddy, naturally. I wasn't a huge fan during their heyday, however have
become a fan since living with Jim as he owns a few box sets. I was so hoping for Elizabeth of Windsor, no such luck. The night was spent with Jim, Todd and Nathaniel. Here are some pictures. . . including one of Todd squishing Nathaniel's and my head. If you have seen KITH you'll know what that's all about. Hey if you all run across the movie Death at a Funeral at the DVD store, rent it. Laugh out loud British film. Highly recommended.
