Vickie on Menopausal/middle -age women:
"You are walking around and for no reason you burst into flames."
"When you are menopausal you are wet not where you want to be, and now you have to buy stuff to make you wet."
"I have so many stretch marks that Sergent Patch asked me recently to lift my shirt up to know where to turn in Orlando."
Pointing at her underarm flab (which she really doesn’t have) she said, "What is this? this reminds of what my dog looked like when she was pregnant."
"What about chin hair? One night, Sgt. Patch said I p--ed her. And I said, no not yet but she said she was bleeding from it."
Vickie on the Heterosexual Community:
"We don’t have a problem with straight people. They are born that way--they can’t help it! We just don’t want them to teach our kids!"
Besides the above examples I cited of Vickie’s humor that evening, she also introduced her celebrity friends. The one introduction I found most memorable was when she introduced her friend Roxanna Ward to the audience. She said, "I love her like a sister but not like a cousin ’cause that is too Southern."
Vickie also sang a little with the rock group Moondogs and led some line dancing with the party crowd. And she also danced the two step with her partner, Lori (Sgt. Patch). She did some comedy skits with Lisa Koch and Roxanna Ward too.
My partner and I got a chance to meet this gorgeous, Southern, zany lady. She is such a sweetheart! When I approached her and asked her if I could have a picture with her and an autograph, she quickly retorted in her Southern voice, "Sure, but I don’t think I look so good being it is so late and all." (It was after midnight). Actually, Ms. Shaw still looked beautiful after her hosting her birthday bash from 5pm to midnight. My partner took the picture of Vickie and me and then she signed the DVD we bought from her called , "Vickie Shaw’s Sick and Wrong Tour."
If you are interested in getting to know this artist more, Vickie has a website. It is
www.vickieshaw.com. Here you will find her biography, her tour dates, merchandise for sale, etc. By the way, when it becomes available, I recommend you purchase her upcoming DVD that is a recording of this magnificent event.
