I’m on the band-side of the audience, second row from the stage, pretty close to the tunnel in the middle. I’m the only person in the area wearing a yellow t-shirt. Jake Lloyd is right behind me, and John Reep (winner of Last Comic Standing) was about eight rows behind us. It was strange that a former guest of the show couldn’t score a better seat.
In the monolouge, Conan mentions Green Bay, WI. I did the appropriate thing, and woo’d for my hometown. He made eye-contact, and said something about how he feels sorry for me because people from Green Bay aren’t used to black people. I’m paraphrasing, but I was too lost in the moment to know what the hell happened.
Eddie Murphy said “shit” once and “fuck” twice in a row. I think they might edit that out.
