[mourigindi]

Sounds just like my Nonno ! ! very accurate !!

[anvedila]

Chistu salami ehehhe mannaia...viva a calabria

[DehydratedManatee]

Damn it. I wish I knew Italian. I understand some Italian, knowing Castellano (Spanish) another Latin based language, but I am unfamiliar with his dialect (Calabrian)

[anthony1290]

I love this! I'm Sicilian so my dilect is very similar to Calabrese. This is hilarious!!

[mjvblue8596]

@anthony1290 Me too. My whole family is 100% sicilian and Calabrian is very similar. What part of Sicily are you from?

[mina30688]

hahahah i know aye he sounds like my nonno. he's from Calabria, which is where im from...

[signorsambolo]

hahahaha. sounds exactly like my dad. does anyone know what town/village joe avatis parents come from? his dialect is from the province of reggio which is where im from

[dalimio]

@signorsambolo

I'm pretty sure one of his parents is from Melicucca in reggio.

[LeoRafDonnyMikey]

would someone please translate this. thanks!

[LifeguardGirl28]

@LeoRafDonnyMikey So basically he's saying that his Nonno calls him up all excited and asks:

"Did you see the news?" Joe say no he didn't, and asked what happened. Nonno says "They caught that one!" He asked who they caught and he tells him "The one with the long beard." Joe is confused and asks if he's talking about Osama Bin Laden. Nonno says, "No not him, the other one, Saddam Hussein. My goodness, when they found him he was down in a hole like a rabbit." (TBC - see next post)

[LifeguardGirl28]

@LeoRafDonnyMikey (Continued from last post) "He came out looking all confused, like he was lost and didn't know anything. I don't understand why, when they found him, they didn't throw a bunch of explosives on the ground on top of him!" Nonno then tells Joe that he thinks Saddam must be Italian. Joe asked why and Nonno replies, "Because when they found him, he had all his cash hidden under the mattress."

So that wasn't a perfect translation, but you get the gist.

[warriorjudgepirate]

if anyone wants to now im going to upload a vid just his voice from his cds: "jope avati live and unluggato (unpluged)" and "Joe Avati livin' la dolce vita (living the sweet life)". and his porfprmence : joe avati back home and live" if i can figuer out how to post it as a vid

[umegghju]

Bazyan1, he sais he's italian because he stashed cash under the mattress. Italian = "materasso", but he sais "matarazzu" as Calabrian-Sicilian. I'm quite sure he's calabrian.

It's not enough to be italian, you should be sicilian or calabrian because it's dialect (Extreme meridional Italian).

[warriorjudgepirate]

im calabrese and i got to have a take with him after i saw his live proformence in montreal. yes he is calabrese. i have this dvd, i have it autograpghed by him, how did u put it on a vid?

[umegghju]

i didn't put it, somebody else did, i just posted. Salutamu!

[JoeyIsTheBest12345]

Im italian so i understand it

fucking hilarious

[bazyan1]

did he say that saddam saw italian cos he stashed cash under the ground cos i cant make what that means? pls let me know

[godfather664]

he said the cash was under the carpet

[godfather664]

no wait he said cause the cash was hidden sorry about that

[BjCaruso]

not carpet... "Matress" godfather664

[richcogs]

its amazing how people can find that funny, just rambling on in Italian.

[godfather664]

but you dont understand what hes saying so you dont find it funny?

[italiangirl27]

i have seen him twice in melbourne he was so funny but the thing is that he never changes his material. maybe becuase all nonnas and nonnos are all the same

[babielozza]

i loved it

[mrMqueen]

i moved this guys furniture yesterday hes really small and a total prick sorry to burst your bubble. jim in sydney.

[shortasslui]

[stardate1804]

[nothingbutcurls]

We are Sicilian but we speak basically the same language as Calabrese people, but oh man.. HILARIOUS!
