Last saturday I got to go see Margaret Cho’s Beautiful Tour show at the Warfield, and it was SO much fun and SO funny and all about sex and I’m driving people crazy repeating her jokes all week. So when it comes near you — go see it, I insist. I needed to laugh until I cried, make inappropriate squeals at her bear jokes, and it’s a dose of much-needed sex-positive pussy jokes, I tell ya. Her next show is this friday in Los Angeles at the Orpheum, and she’s playing with the incredible Liam Sullivan. Yes, *that* Liam.
Margaret Cho kicks more ass onstage than ever. Period.
I feel insanely lucky; Margaret and I hit it off when we met last year so I got to go backstage and say hi and meet Liam and his partner, which was a *total* treat. It’s funny, you know, to be dissed by people like Steve Jobs and then meet and hang out with people like Margaret and Liam, who are both so insanely talented, and discover that they’re exactly the kind of people you’d (or I’d) hang out with at a crowded party in the corner talking about nerdy stuff, junk food and sex. For instance, this was Liam’s dressing room snack table, and here we are mugging for the camera backstage.
If you’re unfamiliar with the Liam Show, immediately watch Text Message Breakup. Then watch Lemme Borrow That Top. As part of the show, he aired a video where a couple goes to a nightmare sex therapist — as soon as I find a link I’ll post it, you’ll love it.
While I was backstage I got to livestream a little bit: in this video, I’m cruising around and harassing Margaret. In this one, I’m showing Margaret and Liam how the streaming works, and during both we got text messages from England that we responded to, live. Super cool.

I was just reading her blog and now my goal is to be famous enough that Jason Mecier will do a collage of me! The one he did for her Warfield posters is amazing.
