Extra-Time with Matt Forde (part 2)

[Jonathan Grunt]

The Americans love a funny Brit

Forde wouldn't have gone down well then

Proving once and for all that Fordey displays huge crossover appeal

The only huge things Forde displays are his ego and his gut

[Basualdo]

"Crossover appeal" = Everyone hates him, and likes doing it.

[Billy]

You're mocking Matt for performing at the Garden? Get a grip.

Do you have any idea how prestigious that place is? The Americans love a funny Brit so it's great to see them enjoying his topical gags. Proving once and for all that Fordey displays huge crossover appeal.

On the contrary Maude I'm merely highlighting and publicising to the great wider public at large the progress and advancement of Matt's career in reaching such heights in performing live in front of twenty thousand at the world famous Madison Square Garden.

Well either that or I'm just trying to take the piss as usual.

I have constantly been informed on here ( and yes it may seem a long way off ) that 2105 is the year of the Fraud, so Fraudy at Madison Square Garden is a huge compliment and is definitely more than achievable given his superstar status and also by his worldwide growing reputation as highlighted in his question and answer session in that mass appeal and pinnacle of publications ,The Leicester Mercury.Appearing this year at Madison Square Garden and the Royal Variety Performance ? Quite frankly I don't think we should be accepting anything less and neither should his fans.

Matt Forde has never played Madison Square Garden. Just to point that out.

Whether he ever will is open to debate. He won't though. Because he's fucking shite.

Thankfully, I'll be long gone by then

I have been doing some further research into this and apparently due to some confusion and misreading on my part, I can now confirm that the year 2105 has actually been penciled in as the year of the proposed Fraudy comeback tour.

Not forgetting that most people on here will have passed by then , there is still an unfortunate possibility that Fraud could still be performing at the ripe old age of 122 .

LEICESTER COMEDY ?? FESTIVAL .......MEET MATT FRAUD.

Name: Matt Fraud

Age: 32

First show: I was very young, in my teens. It was in Nottingham and I had five minutes – I didn’t get many laughs ...........BUT THERE AGAIN SOMETHINGS NEVER CHANGE

Worst show: I’ve had a few. I died on my backside in Mansfield, a woman at the back of the room shouted, ‘give him a chance’ – I felt like she was my mum telling off the bullies. It was horrible, one of the worst gigs of all time.................AND THEN I DISCOVERED IT WAS MY MOM AND FOR SOME REASON ALL THIS HOSTILITY STARTING HAPPENING AT MY OTHER GIGS AROUND THE UK AND NOT JUST IN MANSFIELD.I THINK I'M HILARIOUS AND A GREAT IMPRESSIONIST BUT I FOUND THE MAJORITY OF AUDIENCES DID NOT FULLY APPRECIATE THE COMEDIC QUALITY OF MY ACT AND THE ENORMOUS TALENT I HAVE AND THAT LED TO THE HALF A DOZEN OLD PEOPLE WHO WHERE THERE, JUST WALKING OUT ON MASS.


What do you if people don’t laugh: Soldier on and get on with it. You should never make it awkward by stopping........I TRIED STOPPING ONCE AND D' YOU KNOW IT ACTUALLY GOT MORE LAUGHS BUT SERIOUSLY I FIND A MUCH BETTER SOLUTION IS TO AGREE WITH THE AUDIENCE , WHO ARE MUCH MORE CULTURED THAN I AM AND IF I HAD TO WATCH AN ACT AS BAD AS MINE I WOULD START BOOING ALONG WITH THE REST OF THEM.


What’s the worst thing somebody has heckled during one of your shows: I don’t usually get heckles .........AFTER DOING MY ONE AND ONLY IMPRESSION OF ED MILLIBAND ,I HAVE USUALLY GIVEN UP AND LEFT BY THEN OR THE COMPERE AND A COUPLE OF HEAVIES HAVE FORCEFULLY DRAGGED ME OFF STAGE

If you could be any other person for the day, who would it be and why: .......MY OLD BOSS TONY BLAIR BECAUSE HE IS SO LOVELY AND CUDDLY AND BENEATH IT ALL I AM JUST AN INCORRIGIBLE SYCOPHANT

If you were stuck on a desert what one item would you take:..........A BOOK ON HOW TO BECOME A PORTER AT RAILWAY STATIONS , BECAUSE QUITE FRANKLY THAT IS WHERE I SEE MY FUTURE EMPLOYMENT. '' MIND YOUR BACKS PLEASE LADIES AND GENTS, MIND YOUR BACKS.....''

Superb stuff Cyril and bang all of it bang on.

I must admit there are some superb laughs on this thread which is ironic given the tumbleweed blowing across the stage when you know who is on.

This may well be Forde's year purely in the sense the BBC decided to waste out money on another half baked comic which usually means they force him into our homes in the kind of unwanted fashion Jimmy Savile forced himself on his victim.

I know you'll all be thinking how crass it is of me to associate Forde with Savile but I cannot apologise to someone who is dead.

The bods at the beeb know full well they've wasted out money on this fat chump but in fine BBC tradition they could'nt give a fuck and will continue to force him on us til his mini contract expires then that will be the last we see of him ,thank God.

The big question has to be asked just how much longer will the now big fish Forde want to stick in the little fish bowl that is talkSPORT now he's approaching superstar status on the comedy circuit and on television?. I can't see him sticking it for very much longer as far bigger things lay ahead for this comic genius that has made impressionism his own with that unique style and wit.

Forde doesn't just do impressions in the normal way everyone else does, his takes offs are so good it's uncanny, he paints pictures in the audiences minds with his voice so accurate and precise a lot of people walk away at the end of the show thinking they've been listening to the person he was taking off.

Last week the 02 contacted Forde to ask him if he'd be interested in filling a slot there in July as they've had a cancellation, (Bruce Springsteen has had to pull out) .. he turned them down saying the place wasn't big enough for him now, this boy's future ahead is mindbogglingly bright and to be frank I think we could lose him for ever once America hears about him and that'd be a tragedy I know many will agree.

We lost John Lennon to the US, we lost Tom Jones and we lost Piers Morgan WE MUST NOT LOSE MATT FORDE.

The Yanks owe us a lot. If they take Matt Forde off our hands, handing over every patent we ever owned after the war could be forgiven. His Ed milliband impression could go viral, albeit for the wrong reasons.

Comparing Forde to any half decent comic is like comparing a game of tiddlywinks to the World Cup final.

If the world gets anymore backward, we'll be back to living in caves and having dinosaur for dinner.

Vote hot red hot spike up the bottom to Britain's worst comedian and Fozzy Bear for PM.

You mean that Madison Square Garden film is a fake?, you mean he's not really very talented and the 02 really didn't offer him a date in July I am shocked, guess your right he's f,ing useless and is a waste of good sperm.

[Michaelfatley]

You mean that Madison Square Garden film is a fake?...

No! Not a fake at all.
I know a bloke called Irani and he was in the audience.

[beingsoblase]

Are you sure? According to my records irani was watching roy Keane chop down alf-o whilst playing cricket 220 miles away on that date.

YER DREAMIN PAL

[Billy]

[ccreds]

I wish I was there, sip a couple of cold ones before the show too, starting the Easter break off nicely.
There'll be a few more friends he will have made tonight around Stafford and area that's for sure.

Yes but this was in the evening.

[AlcoholBrazil]

Stafford is famous for having one of the most famous Asylums in the country. St.Georges among others.
Maybe Matt has gathered together some former inmates.

[Roquetas]

Looking forward to Fordey later tonight (Bob Ballard).

[Billy]

This poor guy was just passing by a theatre where Fraud was appearing doing his comedy show and the organisers bribed him with fries and a coke to come in and watch it, the poor wretched sod doesn't know what he's about to witness.

[Carlos J]

Looking forward to Fordey later tonight (Bob Ballard).

Sadly it is Forde.

[AlcoholBrazil]

Sadly it is Forde.

Forde has turned up .

But we know how much New Labour-types love these zero-hour contracts. Forde must be on one at TS.
