So last night I went to Dos Equis Most Interesting Academy to shoot the Dr Sketchy show for [livejournal.com profile] lorigami. They had a birds of prey display with real live owls and falcons, a shark expert panel, some DJs, henna done by [livejournal.com profile] elizebethjoy and some barbers...

I learned several things:

Dos Equis is crap beer, even when it's free.

The secret to being an MC:

Step 1: Address the audience as a unit based on civic identity: "YO ATL! HOW Y'ALL DOIN'?"
Step 2: Remind them of the event they are at: "YOU AT! THE DOS EQUIS! MOST INTERESTING ACADEMY!"
Step 3: Encourage them to make some noise: "MAKE SOME NOISE!"

Repeat these three steps all night.

Trying to convince people that your event will be interesting pretty much guarantees it will be boring.

At one point one of the artists came up to me and said "I see you in my bar all the time!"

I asked hom what his bar was. He said the Clermont. I do go there on occasion, but haven't been in a while. I think for a moment...

"When I'm there, am I usually wearing a kilt?"

"YES!"

"That's my friend Joe!" :)

Seriously, Mike? He mistook you for Joe? WTF, you don't look at all alike, except for the bald head and camera.

Look at it this way: Big, bald guy with a beard, in the presence of hot women posing, with face obscured by a camera... :)
