Stephen Hawking has booked several shows at theaters on the West Coast. Wow, I didn’t even know the guy was on tour! Is the opening act a drum clinic held by the drummer for Def Leppard?
Tickets for the Seattle show range from $35 all the way up to $125… to watch a guy sit on stage and lecture me using his Speak N’ Spell? No thanks, dude. It’s too hard to understand your lyrics… even though I never understand any of Rob Zombie’s lyrics, at least I get to see some laser lights and explosions.
If Hawking’s show has laser lights and explosions, then I might pony up the 35 bucks.

Maybe he’ll bring a blackhole. That’s even cooler than lasers.
and for his death-defying stunt, he’ll sit on the event horizon and taunt the audience by slowly rolling closer and closer toward it…
He’s one of the smartest guys on the planet. Maybe he can explain liberalism. Of course science is the realm of the rational so nevermind.
As long as Great White doesn’t show up to do the pyrotechnics, he’d have to have a powerful chair to get the hell outta there…
Nice one, Chris!
Ironically, the first time I ever saw Rob Zombie in concert (about 10 years ago) he was complaining that the fire marshall wouldn’t allow his band to use any of his pyrotechnics in the club. That little club in Austin, Texas was about the size of the place that Great White burned to the ground.
I had a chance to see Great White about a year ago but the tickets were too much and I didn’t wanna get burned. I’m Once Bitten Twice Shy…
I want my “Hawking Hell on Wheels Tour 2005” teeshirt
I hear that his encore is to weave strings into a 26-dimensional supersymmetric sweater (size XL).
Stephen Hawking has some really excellent gangsta rap. It can be found here, or stolen via P2P. I highly recommend pirating (illegally) the hit, “All My Shootings Be Dirve-Bys”.
Go ahead and tease the quadraplegic. Let’s see who’s laughing when his brain jumps up outta his head and kicks…your…ass.
Dude don’t you read his books? It is ALL lasers and explosions.

And quantum singularitys… Wont someone please think of the quantum singularitys!
