Dick's side of Edmonton story

The followup to the Edmonton Journal story clears up a few matters.

Dick says he’s not surprised some people hated the show, but he insists he got plenty of positive feedback from patrons. The club was sold out for both Friday shows, he says, and the room didn’t empty while he was on stage.

“Nobody left, and if a couple of people complained, good. Once again, I did my job.

“I actually had a really, really, really great time, and I was completely shocked that they cancelled the shows, because I thought they went really good and I got a good response. I hung out with, like, 30 people after the show who … loved it.

“People come and they expect whichever Andy Dick they’re plugged into. If you’re plugged into the Less Than Perfect ABC/Disney Andy Dick, that’s what you’re going to expect. But if you know any of my live stuff or you saw the Andy Dick Show or you’ve been online and seen some of my more grotesque or weird or provocative stuff, then you’re going to expect that. It is impossible to please everyone.”

We can’t get the image of his penis wrapped around his wrist out of our heads.
