But Kirbul, we all know hookers in Halifax/Dartmouth wear everything from sweatpants to booty shorts, from parkas to tank tops. How is a poor girl supposed to figure out the non-hooker formula? Lederhosen and a Canucks jersey?
Aside from attending a few tapings of 22 Minutes, I was a live tv virgin before seeing Letterman in New York recently.
I gotta say, the pre-show bullshit came very close to ruining my entire experience as well. First, you stand in line for a half hour outside. Then you come inside, get your tickets, and are told to return in 90 minutes. Upon your return, you line up again. After another 20 minutes or so of lining up outside, you are brought in to the lobby of the Ed Sullivan Theatre. It is a very small lobby, and they cram you in so tight you can barely move. We stood there for what seemed like an eternity, while an idiot page had us practice laughing, appluading, etc, etc. We were given instructions to laugh really hard for the warm-up comic once we got into the theatre, as "Dave will be watching". We were warned he wouldn't bring out his "A" material unless he thought we deserved it. Or something.
By the time we got into the studio, I was ready to fucking murder somebody.
The actual taping was fine. Much more linear than Jane's experience. Monologue, desk bit, guest, guest, musical guest, end. It was pretty much live-to-tape I believe. I enjoyed it.
But I wouldn't do it again. Not for Dave, Jay, Conan, Jon, Craig, Jimmy, Jimmy, Whoopi, Oprah, Jerry..nobody.

Good riddance.
