A.M. Nuggets: Ask Seth MacFarlane A Question Before He Plays Carnegie Hall
Did you know the Beatles once played Carnegie Hall? They performed two 35-minute shows back to back on the evening of February 12, 1964. The sets were meant to be recorded for a live album, but a dispute between promoters and the musician's union caused plans for the taping the be scrapped. The shows went on anyway and are lost to history for all except the 5,000 or so people in the audiences that night.
Family Guy Sings! should be pretty similar to the Beatles circa '64... in that they both played Carnegie Hall. Expect the similarities to end there. Creator Seth MacFarlane says of his Carnegie debut, "We hope the good people at the hall are ready for a barrage of masturbation jokes that'll make Igor Stravinsky's 'Concerto No. 69' look like George Gershwin's 'Clean Wholesome Hugs."
Limited numbers of tickets to the 11/24 and 11/25 shows are still available. Today is your last chance to enter our Family Guy Sings! ticket giveaway - we pick a winner at 5:00pm.
More importantly NOW is your chance to ask Seth MacFarlane ANY QUESTION YOU WANT. Seth's phoning in this afternoon for what we think will be an interview about next week's show. But who knows what he'll really decide to talk about. If you have a question for Seth write it in below, or send us an email. We'll take the best question and see what the dude has to say.
How do you feel about other animated comedy shows like South Park or The simpsons who have made jokes at Family guy's expense?
