Most underrated bit of comedy is the waitress at this coffee and doughnuts shop bringing Del a fancy teapot and matching cup, as if saved specifically for any British customers
Whoever it might be, the REAL prize - that same brandy glass filled with a rare vintage brandy (like a 40 year old Armagnac) - belongs to the creator of the origin behind the Del Preston character - Bruce Robinson. I raise my own brandy glass to those who know of what I’m talking about. 🍷
And the way he tells this story makes it sound like Ozzy was out of Black Sabbath and performing solo at that particular point in time, which means that Keith Moon would not have even been alive lol
The way I like to think of it is at this point in his life, he’s lived so many lives & done so many of these concerts & been so burnt out by drug usage, that all of the stories are just kind of melting together in his brain
"I had to beat them to death with their own shoes" has to be the funniest line in a movie, ever. How did he even get their shoes? So many unanswered questions
I wondered this for a while back in the day. Then I saw Santino Corleone beat the shit out of his brother-in-law in The Godfather 2 and got my answer. I was like "oh - so that's how!".
The "no brown m&ms" requirement was actually a thing used by Van Halen during their tours. David Lee Roth mentions it in his _Crazy From The Heat_ autobiography. The reason they inserted that requirement into the contract was to see if the local crews were actually bothering to read it. If brown m&ms were found backstage, chances were that some more important contractual requirement wasn't being followed, as well.
Catzilla David Lee Roth or the show arcitect would trash the dressing rooms. In a show in Santa Fe, Roth trashed the dressing room because they served brown M&Ms. Later it was found that the local crew installed the risers wro g causing $500 000 damage to the new rubberized floor. The papers tnen started saying he ceused half a million dollars diage to the dressing rooms over brown M&Ms.
Furthermore I heard the contract included safety instructions for the pyrotechnics to be used in the show. If the "no brown M&Ms" was ignored, then the safety instructions were probably also ignored and the manager knew to check it out.
you know, i remember my older cousins losing their shit during this scene... and even after the movie, kept doing the impression. i of course was only like 11 or 12, so didn't really understand why it was so funny. i just thought it was because of his funny accent and facial expressions. coming back to revisit this scene, now that im 39... i can't stop laughing!!!! this is great!!!!
Ugh I watched this movie with my dad who loved anti humor and random shit and he totally lost it with the shop keeper and his son line omg lol good memories!
Bahaha the best story ever. This movie had so many unforgetable scenes. Me and my mates have quoted this line ever since we heard it. Thank you and thank you Wayne's World 2.
"Jeff Beck pops his head round the door." Oh, sure. Meanwhile, Ozzy's on the shitter, Steven Tyler's on the couch, Jimmy Page is on the dog, Alice Cooper's on the bed while Mick Jagger makes himself a sandwich. Just another Sunday afternoon at my place.
We were in Sri Lanka, formerly Ceylon, when ozzy said he needed 1000 brown m&ms to fill a brandy glass or else he wouldn't go on stage that night. Jeff Beck pops his head in and mentions there a lil sweet shop on the edge of town and, sure enough, its closed. Well, here's me, David Crosby, and Keith Moon breaking into this lil sweet shop at 3 o'clock in the morning. Well, instead of a guard dog they have a great big Bengal Tiger. I took him out with a can of mace; the shop owner and his son was a different story altogether; I had to beat them to death with their own shoes. Nasty business really. Sure enough I got the brown m&ms, ozzy went on stage, and it was a great show.
What always gets me about this is I know a couple of guys who are literally like this. One a roadie and one is an artist for albums. Both are pretty much covered in this minus the accent.
It was a great show mate, Though may I offer this suggestion. Next time mix skittles in with the M&M's so nobody makes that mistake again. God bless and Rock and Roll never dies.
My best friend and I used to recite this entire monologue in 7th grade together. The fact that I was still able to do it right now speaks volumes... I miss you Josh Padilla.
we had 20 cans and of red bull and a packet of matches and we had to get jimi hendrix from the stage to the tour bus. but thats another story all together
I can't decide what's funnier, the intense stare at 0:38, or Garth's intense nodding until the horrific resolution followed by the wtf look. Epic scene! Hahaha!
@@kaikohl973 Bruh, to be fair, I rewatched this clip and that specific exchange....a little preface here: I am not young, I come from a time before the internet made noise and tied up the house phone, Gorbachev was doing Pizza Hut commercials, when hair metal bands roamed the lands, when comedians spent time developing their jokes and gags and comedy was good because of it.... .......This whole time I thought she just brought him a cup of tea....... SHE FUCKING DEADASS SERVES HIM TEA. LIKE, BRITISH TEA SERVICE, FROM GRANDMOTHERS TEA POT, SERVES HIM TEA!!!! 🤯 All this time, and Im still seeing new shit in this movie..... For the record, while American diners do serve tea, its a cup of hot water from the giant 3 gallon countertop carafe industrial coffee maker and a pouch of dried whatever-they-scrape-out-of-the-rain-gutters. They do not British tea service serve tea.....
Most underrated bit of comedy is the waitress at this coffee and doughnuts shop bringing Del a fancy teapot and matching cup, as if saved specifically for any British customers
I never noticed this, that's quite funny and subtle. Love it !
I never noticed that, that’s superb
lol
First time noticing lmao
Well they love tea 🍵 me too as well both coffee and tea oh and tetley tea too
Whoever wrote this monologue deserves one thousand brown M&Ms in a brandy glass!
he hasn't that's why Wayne's World 3 didn't happen
And a free trip to Sri Lanka, formerly Sri Lonka....
@@Fortniteclandanny Wait what? You mean Sri Lanka, formerly Ceylon.
And a bottle.of brandy.
Whoever it might be, the REAL prize - that same brandy glass filled with a rare vintage brandy (like a 40 year old Armagnac) - belongs to the creator of the origin behind the Del Preston character - Bruce Robinson. I raise my own brandy glass to those who know of what I’m talking about. 🍷
"This is why Keith Richards cannot be killed by conventional weapons."
Legendary
Hahaha I did this monologue for an accent imitation assessment in drama class at high school and I won an academic achievement award for it!!!!
That's awesome! I bet it was a hit! :)
the actor isn't even British either. he's a yank
+Bill Grubb Ralph Brown was born in Cambridge and went to LSE. He's about as British as you can get without wearing a monocle.
Shit my bad mate. Could of swore he was a yank. Thanks
He plays a very similar character in "Withnail & I" and a few other TV shows
"This bloody great big bengal tiger"... Fucking gets me every time.
The craziest thing about this whole story is David Crosby being at an Ozzy show.
And the way he tells this story makes it sound like Ozzy was out of Black Sabbath and performing solo at that particular point in time, which means that Keith Moon would not have even been alive lol
The way I like to think of it is at this point in his life, he’s lived so many lives & done so many of these concerts & been so burnt out by drug usage, that all of the stories are just kind of melting together in his brain
I love how Jeff Beck (RIP) has an intrinsic geographical knowledge of Sri Lankan (formerly Ceylon) sweet shops.
The way Wayne and Garth's expressions take a turn when he gets to the part about the shoes...
It's funnier when he tells the exact story the second time and Wayne and Garth know all the words.
And to Chris Farley lol
And then the third time at the fundraiser party to that one roadie, and he's listening with rapt attention
My first thought when I heard Jeff Beck had died.
"I had to beat them to death with their own shoes" has to be the funniest line in a movie, ever. How did he even get their shoes? So many unanswered questions
I wondered this for a while back in the day. Then I saw Santino Corleone beat the shit out of his brother-in-law in The Godfather 2 and got my answer. I was like "oh - so that's how!".
Nasty business, really...... but....sure enough 😂
@@AleksPizana *Godfather 1... Sonny didn't, uhhhh, _quite make it_ to Part 2, unfortunately! (I said that in my best Del Preston voice)
It was probably the only part I laughed
Also it was him, Keith f'n Moon and David f'n Crosby:D
The dude staring at preston at 38 seconds kills me, so hilarious
My favorite part of the clip.
Such an intense look. Hes hanging on every word
0:38 😉
Haven’t seen this scene in forever, knew exactly who you were talking about. Dudes stare is burnt into my brain.
I don't think he believes a word of it 😂
RIP Jeff Beck, your knowledge of Sri Lankan (formerly Ceylon) convenience stores will remain unparalleled.
And now David Crosby is gone too :(
And Keith Moon. 😂😂😂
I guarantee Del is still alive. Cannot be killed by conventional weapons.

@@squamish4244 well, as Dave himself said about this very thing 'who am I to get in the way of a good rumor?' ;)
100 percent correct 💯 cant trim any fat away from that statement.
Ahhh a fellow scholar of rock i see....😌
Garth's reaction faces to Del's stories kill me every time.
the greatest story ever told.
This isn't the Charleton Heston scene. ;)
God Wayne's face when he says he beat them to death with their own shoes lol
That was a real Austin Powers look
Craziest thing about this whole story is that Ozzy is the only one still alive
Right?! 😂
"There I am in Sri Lanka (formerly Ceylon) at 3 o'clock in the morning...." is quite possibly the finest opening to a monologue in cinema, EVER.
This is the exact same character (and actor) as in 'Withnail and I' and I love it
I always refer to Sri Lanka as formerly Ceylon, due to this scene. freaking awesome
Same😄
Same
you know, i remember my older cousins losing their shit during this scene... and even after the movie, kept doing the impression. i of course was only like 11 or 12, so didn't really understand why it was so funny. i just thought it was because of his funny accent and facial expressions. coming back to revisit this scene, now that im 39... i can't stop laughing!!!! this is great!!!!
Well boys looks like Jeff Beck is going to go to the little sweet shop at the edge of heaven. R.I.P. Jeff Beck
Ugh I watched this movie with my dad who loved anti humor and random shit and he totally lost it with the shop keeper and his son line omg lol good memories!
He was perfect for that role! I love how keeps telling the same story lol
To this day, whenever Sri Lanka comes up in conversation with my friends, which granted, isn't a lot, we always follow it with, "formerly Ceylon".
I used to say this monologue to my uncles when I was younger, they were in stitches haha!
I've known this by heart since I was 12 haha
I love Del. I remember when I first met him and his old lady. They were good people. Good times.
WHO’S THE OLD LADY?!
Bahaha the best story ever. This movie had so many unforgetable scenes. Me and my mates have quoted this line ever since we heard it. Thank you and thank you Wayne's World 2.
My favourite though is when he tells the story to Milton (Chris Farleys character) 😂😂😂😂
Garth’s face is priceless the whole way 😂😂😂
I love how the story took a dark turn from candy to death. lol
25 people got beaten to death with their own shoes by Del Preston
sulacomarine sir, you are a winner
How were they able to thumbs down the video then?
it's 44 now... beaten to death..
i'm downvoting the video, not because of the del preston monologue, but because the person who posted the video asked for me to subscribe.
Nasty business really..
"Jeff Beck pops his head round the door."
Oh, sure. Meanwhile, Ozzy's on the shitter, Steven Tyler's on the couch, Jimmy Page is on the dog, Alice Cooper's on the bed while Mick Jagger makes himself a sandwich. Just another Sunday afternoon at my place.
THAT'S FUCKING FUNNY! LOLOLOL
The. Greatest. Story. Ever. Told. EVER!!!
One of the greatest movie monologues ever.
just cuase keith moon is mentioned i tend to belive this story happend.
I believe it too xD
Adam Kramer Despite the fact that Del Preston is fictional?
Especially *because* Del Preston is fictional.
Fucking hell l. You're right
You misspelled 23% of the words in your sentence. I have no doubt that you believe it’s a true story.
Hahaha, David Crosby :P a name you'd never expect to hear thrown into a conversation like this.
pretty sweet lol
i love later in the movie when he's telling the story again and they are just nodding their heads rolling their eyes lol
Just watched it last night on MTV. I love Del's Ozzy story!
Now, this is what we call "cinematic gold"! If you love 70's rock and roll, this is one of the funniest movie scenes ever.
I prefer his original Withnail & I bits, where the actor/character is lifted from.
And did a greeeeat show 😂😂😂 kills me that bit
0:38 lol dude is fucking zoned in.
That's my favorite part of the scene. His look of intensity floors me every time. LOL!!
RIP Jeff Beck and now David Crosby,only Ozzy remains from Del's story
Don’t jinx it brother.
100% this is Danny! This actor should do more of this character lol
This is legit the funniest scene. It never gets old.
One of the funniest scenes in that movie!!!
My favorite part of the entire movie.. good stuff.. thanks for posting the video
This will never not be funny
0:39 the look on that dudes face cracks me up! H hahaha!
I love how David Crosby is in the mix 😂
One of my all time favorite stories 🤣
I remember this guy being on Soccer AM and did this monologue again 😂
"The shopkeeper and his son were a different story altogether. I had to beat them to death with their own shoes." 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
when did you turn into a nutbar?
Someone should turn Wayne's face after he finds out Del Preston killed the shop owner and his son into a meme.
physically impossible to read the description without crackin up haha
David Crosby & Jeff Beck both dying means as of now, Ozzy is the only one left in the story still alive
I’d like to hear Del do other great movie monologues. Tears in the rain, USS Indianapolis, The Horror, The horror etc
@troyundroy1 -- well gents, we dropped the bomb. Yes, the Hiroshima bomb. But that's a story for another time...
How many sentences would benefit from ending with "or Ozzie wouldn't go on stage that night"
Haha
my brother and I used to randomly say this monolouge all the frikkin time!
I instantly thought of this scene when I heard David Crosby passed away, just after Jeff Beck also passed.
I will never ever not find this hilarious the facial expressions from intriuge to complete bullshit are amazing
I remember watching this movie high and almost passed out with laughter at that line.
We were in Sri Lanka, formerly Ceylon, when ozzy said he needed 1000 brown m&ms to fill a brandy glass or else he wouldn't go on stage that night.

Reasy easy Jeff Beck
Greatest monologue in the history of cinema.
The way Wayne looks after he says the father and son line is priceless
My best friend and I used to recite this entire monologue in 7th grade together. The fact that I was still able to do it right now speaks volumes... I miss you Josh Padilla.
The Greatest Story Ever Told. Ever.
Dr. Evil's back story is better.
Wayne's reaction. Love it.
Thank you! I really liked the credits at the end.
Best rock&roll song i've ever heard!!!
we had 20 cans and of red bull and a packet of matches and we had to get jimi hendrix from the stage to the tour bus. but thats another story all together
I love this more than life it's self.
I can't decide what's funnier, the intense stare at 0:38, or Garth's intense nodding until the horrific resolution followed by the wtf look. Epic scene! Hahaha!
Yeah really, I'm personally a big fan of Wayne's subtlety uncomfortable reaction to that line.
I can never make it past "So there's me, Keith Moon and David Crosby breakin' into this sweet shop" without busting out laughing. 😅
First time seeing this clip from the movie in a long time, soooooo good lol
Excellent!
0:38 😂😂😂😂 this guy deserves all the awards in the world
I like how Del reflects about the deaths of the shopkeeper and his son, then declares the most important thing is the show was a success.
I love this part too! Too funny!
0:39
His face always makes me laugh.
Del Preston is awesome.
Great story.
great video, buddy!
I often resite this scene at work...no one ever gets it, and that makes me sad ... But I have faith that one day I will meet my next best friend.
The 23 that didnt like this were related to the shopkeeper and his son...
...and that's a different story altogether.
Do we ignore the fact that she brings him a cup of tea in an American diner? 🤣
.....You do know American diners serve tea, right?
@@TankR it's about the contrast bros, it's the subtlety that makes it so funny

@@TankR So you lived through dial-up internet and hair metal but you say "deadass"? These figures ain't adding up.
I used to do this impersonation for kids in my class growing up.
I wish they made a spin-off movie for Del and Glenn (the diner guy who stabbed someone).
+trinidadparaminman I had never done a crazy thing in my life before that night.
If this ain't Oscar-worthy, i don't know what is
Hahahaha amazing how the story turns so dark 😂
One of the funniest scenes I've ever seen lol
I've a had pint with Ralph brown in a theatre pub. He's as legendary in real life.
0:25 The guy looks like Ozzy!
"I managed to take out the tiger with a can of mace" 😂
They things musicians ask for to go on stage!
