Yes, Wayne is still about.....in fact he is currently doing, or about to start a U.K. tour with Joe Pasquale.

Cheers,

Simon.

I reckon Wayne is one of the best this country has produced - skilled, professional and entertaining. Sadly his personal health has limited a lot of what he does but he's still in there doing the biz and that shows true commitment!

Hi :lol:
It was me who posted the first message. I am abig Joe Pasquale fan so I have seen Wayne bout 3 times this yr. He did some great magic. Combining both magic with comedy-he was great.
That is all

hello
I don't really understand what you meant in the last post! Am I being really stupid?! :? Are you talking bout the joke Joe does during his show with a mobile? :lol: I don't know quite what you meant in the second part! Please explain further... If you don't mind

To be honest, I don't understand most of what I write either!

A few years ago I saw Joe in Cabaret and the guy who introduced the show told us that he'd phoned Joe at home that morning to make sure he had rememberd the booking (!) and the ansaphone message was just (imagine the squeaky voice!): 'This is Joe, you know what to do and you know when to do it'.

Sort of fits in with his personality quite well, I thought! :D

Hiya
Thanks Magicdisconman - I understand what you meant now! Thanks for explaining it to me. I can really imagine that - that is so Joe like! Well, I think so, but what do I know!? Did you say in the last post that you have seen Joe onstage? If so what did you think? Sorry, I will go now!
Byyyyeeeeeee

Joe was absolutley fantastic! Like many entertainers, he never gets sufficient time on TV to show all of what he can do, and a cabaret style show was a much better format. Totally crazy, completely nuts - but the whole routine was very skilfully put together and performed. Solid entertainment of most stupid kind for about an hour and a half - what more can you ask for?

Cheers!

Thanks for that lost post, it made me :lol:
I am a massive Joe Pasquale fan, and I totally agree with you on that last post mandrake! Joe should definately appear more on our t.v screens. The nation is just waiting to see the comedgy genius that is Joe Pasquale! Saying that, he has appeared four times on that Des and Mel show. He was brilliant. I've seen him a few times this yr already(well 5! :wink: ) and I can't wait for the next show. Sorry, this is supposed to be about magic!
Bye

Well it was nce of you to admit that you enjoyed the show 'THE mog'. I don't really know how anyone could not. There is nothing to dislike about them! Well that is my opinion. So, you like the ventriliquist?
