According to his website, Eddie Izzard’s ‘Sexie’ comedy tour of the UK looks likely to be popular, as the first two nights - still a good five months off - are sold out already.

I don’t know if he’s taking the tour elsewhere (or has already shown ‘Sexie’ in other countries already) but I’ve just confirmed my booking to see him on August 7th 2003, right here in Godzone.

This calls for a smilie, I think.

🆒

And this is the first I know that he’s coming to my town.

He’ll be in Minneapolis in late September. I already have my tickets. That’s as close as he’s getting to where I live; I’m not sure when and where else he’s going in the US.

He will be in Boston… at the Fleet Center! And I will be unable to attend as I will be on bedrest or just recovering from surgery!

Bah!

He’s not coming anywhere south of the Mason-Dixon line in the U.S., which is why I’m travelling to Chicago (Cecil, can I crash on your couch?) to see him. By the time my friends and I bought tickets, two of the four nights in Chicago were already sold out. This was less than two weeks after they’d gone on sale.

SO glad to see him getting the success and recognition he deserves.
