Hey all! So in my previous post, I mentioned wanting to do a daily post here, regardless of content. Guess who FAILS! yeah, that’s me. It’s been like a week and this is the FIRST post I’ve put up here. I appologize to all of those people who sit at their screens and hit refresh, hoping that lil ol me decides to post something retarded. WELL, here is your wish come true. You can now stop hitting refresh…well, for as long as it takes for you to read this post.
So I came up with a pretty cool weekly video idea thing that I would like to start doing. I think i’ll start this Sunday. I’m not going to ruin the surprise, but let’s just say it’s possibly funny and a good web series for you all that will have constantly new content. I’ll still do Ethan’s Adventures, but this will be a sub branch of the super corp. that is EA.
In addition to this, a friend of mine over at 50YearPlan, Barak, and myself are talking about doing a coloboration of creative minds. The idea would be we would challenge each other to make something each week and share it with you all. You would then vote to see who WINS THE CHALLENGE and AVOIDS DEATH! We’re still working out the kinks, but what do you all think? Maybe you can come up with a name for the competition, or maybe our first challenge? Like a photoshop challenge, video challenge, music challenge, art challenge, whatever!
Ok, that’s it for now. I have to save some of my shit for tomorrow’s post. yeah.
Okay. I want to go here and do this. Seriously. Who’s in?
This is a path called “El Caminito Del Rey” or “The Pathway of the King”. It’s near Malaga, Spain and was built very long ago when workers needed a path to hike between these two waterfalls. Here’s the Wiki entry: WIKIPEDIA
In other news, I want to try and post here at least once a day. I’ll probably be posting various Hollywood things, life things, thoughts, anecdotes, or other dumb sheyat. You can either choose to love it, or despise the poo out of it. Either way, i’m determined to do it, so deal.
So last night, as with every Monday, I wanted to go check out UCB Harold Night (long form improv at one of the best improv theaters in town — ucbtheater.com). I went with my friend Amanda who had never been. I pre-empted the show by saying, “this place is awesome. It’s amazing improv with hilarious improvisors and sometimes surprise celebrity guests! You’ll never know who’s playing that night. It could be an amazing surprise!”.
Sure enough, BIG surprises awaited us. Half way through the show, the MC comes out and says, “I don’t know if you guys are really buying this show. Would it help if I brought out Robin Williams?” to which the audience sat clueless and confused. Sure enough, through the curtains comes THE Robin Williams.
What.
The.
Fuck.
He did a little introduction to the next group and said he would be sticking around for the improv jam after if we wanted to stay and play. I was already planning on staying for the Jam, but now I was GUARANTEED of staying.
Jump ahead to the Jam. I got selected to jump up on stage. So I did. I improvised with Robin Frackin Williams. We did a handful of scenes together, non of which were amazing (my fault — frackin nerves), but it was an honor to share the stage with someone who really shaped my comedic roots. He was absolutely hilarious, random, and energetic. I fucking loved it.
The highlight: The scene where Robin Williams improv peed over an improv wall into my improv mouth. Yup. That just happened.
Wish I had video or pics to prove it, but it was an Ethan’s Adventure to remember!
