Frankie Boyle lost it imo. I went to his last tour (it was supposed to be his final stand up tour, which he toured 3 times). Yeah, there was stuff I did laugh at, but I'm not convinced I'll clamour to get a ticket this time.

Just bagged two Row A tickets for Frankie Boyle!! First attempt got Row B, thought I would refresh and try and get Row A but then I got a message saying high volume try again later, thought I blown my chances as they kept giving me Row O tickets after that... Paid of in the end after refreshing for 40 times

Cheers for the heads up about the pre-sale SSB...

Can't wait for the waves of sheer offence!

Anyone going to Stephen Merchant tomorrow night?

I've got high hopes. I think he'll be hilarious.

Was he any good then mate?

I just brought a Dara O'Briain ticket, had to buy it through Ticket Factory for a decent seat tho... £4.56 booking fee :tightarseface:

Ha ha thats brilliant if you've seen the height of him!!!!
He was in our shop on Wed as he had a show in Dublin, He is absolutely huge

Merchant was ace. Very funny, and it's easy to see his influence on the comedy writing partnership he has with Gervais.
Mostly self-deprecating style of comedy about his height and awkwardness and trouble finding women. A very funny routine about watching porn on VHS! Very funny. Worth seeing if you can grab a copy of the DVD.

The support act was also good. A guy called Josh Widdicombe. I think I recognise him from Mock the Week et al. His comparison of Argos Extra to a game of Battleships was spot on!

Does Sarah Millican have to complete a certain number of hours on the TV for community service or something? I don't remember the last time I switched the TV on and she wasn't on it.

Milton Jones was average last night... Didn't meet my expectations what I have seen of him on Mock of the Week.

Don't let it put you off seeing him - saw him at Stafford earlier this year and he was excellent.

Ross Noble - never quite done it 100% for me. Should I go?

Sarah Millican is a godawful example of conedy. An unfunny whinging cow, mentioning cake every once in a while. Can't stand the fucking bint...

 

[ROVERT47]

My kids are always banging on about Stewart Lee so i watched Vis's Top Gear clip, absolute class, say's it all really especially 'the Hamster', 'ooo gypsy's hee,hee, he'.

 

[visage]

Good stuff. I like my comedians to have a bit of edge. People like Michael McIntyre boil my piss - it's awful comedy.

 

[The Bear]

Check out the 'Pear Cider' and 'Joe Pasquale stealing jokes' clips too Trev.

 

[Dan]

Got my ticket for Rhod Gilbert at the Symphony Hall. Off work that day as well. Should be decent!
