Argument Customer: Yes it is! An argument is an intellectual process! It isn’t just contradiction!
Mr.Barnard: Look, if I’m to argue with you, I have to take up a contradictory position!
Argument Customer: Yes, but it’s not just saying “No it isn’t!”
Mr.Barnard: Yes, it is!
Argument Customer: No, it isn’t!
Fans of Monty Python will not want to miss this live performance at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles.
The show is comprised of super-classic sketches, including songs and pieces such as “The Last Supper”, “Sit on My Face”, the “Silly Olympics”, the “International Philosophy Show”, the “Four Yorkshiremen sketch”, “How Sweet to Be an Idiot”, and, “The Lumberjack Song”.
The troupe seems to have had a very good time and the audience concurred. I laughed out loud with frequency. The humor is perhaps even more irreverent than it was on TV.
