Paid Members Dead Mike Posted January 28, 2013 Paid Members Posted January 28, 2013 Reading that back, I basically seem like I Quote
Big_Will Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 Going to see Seinfeld on Saturday, I'm really looking forward to it Quote
Paid Members Your Fight Site Posted January 28, 2013 Paid Members Posted January 28, 2013 The problem I generally find with Boyle's stand-up work is after the 30 minute mark his act starts to get a bit tiresome. Yes. Got his first stand-up, and it Quote
King Pitcos Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 The Comedy Store have an 'uncut' special in cinemas. It's got Paul Tonkinson and Boothby Graffo in it. If it had Paul Foot as well, I'd do a shooting during one of the screenings. Quote
Paid Members John Matrix Posted February 12, 2013 Paid Members Posted February 12, 2013 After talking about wanting to get back on the horse and watch some live comedy a couple of weeks ago, the Peterborough Comedy Festival has just been announced. My excitement was fairly short lived though, as Zoe Lyons was announced the headliner. I know female comics get a bad rap generally, but in this case it Quote
Paid Members Dead Mike Posted February 12, 2013 Paid Members Posted February 12, 2013 Also performing are Josh Widdicombe, Terry Alderton, Seann Walsh, Jarred Christmas, Boothby Graffoe and Justin Moorehouse. All top acts IMO. Obviously depends how much they're charging? I believe Terry Alderton holds the record for the most encores ever received at The Comedy Store, to the point where he only now gets booked to close there as they deem it unfair for other acts to follow him.

Paid Members gmoney Posted March 29, 2013 Paid Members Posted March 29, 2013 Going to see Paul F. Tompkins in London next week. Little bit excited. Quote
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted May 20, 2013 Paid Members Posted May 20, 2013 Watched a fair bit of standup lately:- * Jim Gaffigan - really like this guy. Pretty much only talks about McDonalds and doing impressions of people criticising him but he is really funny. Looking forward to more from him. * Louis CK - his new show is about as good as the rest of his stuff, by which I mean pretty good. He's consistent but he's never done a truly great show and possibly never will. * Daniel Tosh - about as funny as being raped. * Russell Peters - one of the dullest, laziest, shittiest comedians I've ever seen. Yeah, let's have some more pointing at Indians in the audience. Fuck off. * Bill Burr - meh. Rant, rave, occasional funny gag, rant, rave, repeat and rinse. * Larry The Cable Guy - fuck off. * Bill Engvall - ditto. Quote
Paid Members Dead Mike Posted May 20, 2013 Paid Members Posted May 20, 2013 Bill Burr - meh. Rant, rave, occasional funny gag, rant, rave, repeat and rinse. I've watched all 3 of his specials that are on Netflix multiple times. LOVE Bill Burr. Quote
Paid Members Scott Malbranque Posted May 20, 2013 Paid Members Posted May 20, 2013 I don't think Peter Kay is funny. I never fucking have, and everyone I've ever said that to has reacted unfavourably and admonished me for even having the nerve to say such a thing. The one time I actually cried laughing at a gig was at Dylan Moran's Monster tour in 2004, I think the year was. I usually hate Irish comedians, but that was fucking brilliant. Am going to see Izzard on Sunday. I'm not arsed either way, but hopefully he delivers. Quote
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted May 20, 2013 Paid Members Posted May 20, 2013 Bill Burr - meh. Rant, rave, occasional funny gag, rant, rave, repeat and rinse. I've watched all 3 of his specials that are on Netflix multiple times. LOVE Bill Burr. He was okay but I didn't really see what was special about him. Plus this was really annoying - "A'RIGHT? A'RIGHT?! A'RIGHT?!" Quote
GalaxyV.2 Posted May 20, 2013 Posted May 20, 2013 Kay gets slated on here, so you're safe. Personally I don't mind him. Quote
Merzbow Posted May 20, 2013 Posted May 20, 2013 If you can make millions by talking about white dog shit then fair play to you. Quote
