Creamtastic / Interviews / Whatevs Andy Dick: 'If I Could Do My Career Over Again...'
Posted by Ashley Spurgeon on Thu, May 28, 2009 at 12:15 PM
"...I would not have been a complete moron on camera."
It was incorrectly assumed this was going to be a stand-up performance, but no. It is "Andy Dick, The Musical." Comma not colon. He is not Denise Richards and it is a good idea, according to the gentleman in question, "to keep the Dicks away from the colons." Since it's a musical there is indeed music involved, in the form of guitar-playing with between-song tangents and wanderings. Though Mr. Dick stated that he's been doing a version of this act for 20 years, we were informed that "no two shows are the same."
His son Lucas will be opening, doing a more traditional stand-up routine before Andy's "provocative and strange one-man show." When asked what it was like to go on tour with his family, he said he was hesitant at first: "I was thrown back to the old days where I had these alcoholic flashbacks with airplanes and hangovers and I was like, I don't want to do that again. I forget I'm not drinking anymore."
He also said that Nashville is a lot like Austin, Texas. Take that any way you want.

So he called you back after all? I thought I had totally ruined it for you. Did you ask how his tuna steak with artichoke was?

Ha, no. He was extremly polite, though he did refer to video games as "fucking bullshit," which I think we can all agree is crazy talk.
Although he had a hand in (but in no way was the cause of, no matter what Jon Lovitz would have you think) the death of one of my idols, I have grown to forgive/love Mr. Dick. I spoke to him very briefly in one of his live video chats from his basement. Id love to be there for one of these performances, but alas I can not.
I agree with Ashley.
As far as the Austin, TX thing goes... meh

Mr. Andy Dick was at The End last night for about 15 minutes. I felt like I was in LA again. He looked happy and healthy, which was nice to see. :)
