Going to see stand-up Page 8

Good venue? Did he have a warm up?

No! You plonker Aaron.

He felt Aaron's plonker?

No warm up. In a marquee as part of an arts festival. Some good gags. E.g;

Glad burkhas are black instead of red or everyone would be posting their letters in them.

I read that as Gurkhas. Blimey - I'm getting old.

That excerpt was actually mild. He said that he'd been looking at Madeline McCann's picture that much that he'd started to fancy her.

Oooohhhhhhh!!!!! That is Soooooooooo hack!

Awesome Stephen Merchant is at my local stand up club tomorrow night!!!

Better get tickets me thinks!

http://www.roarwithlaughter.co.uk/ is down in Colliers wood...South London if anyone is around that area!

Ooh, you lucky thing. Are you going?

I was going to, but now got free tickets to Futureheads. Doh!

Ha.
I would still choose Steve! :)

I have NO money... so free stuff wins.

I would choose Steve had it not been for lack of cash!

Oh fair enough then. :)

Even though it's not free, I'd have chosen Steve as well!

I say Daniel Kitson the other week, very good, and clever and a little bit scary.

I see quite a few stand-ups. Seeing Dylan Moran and Ed Byrne soon, plus Jason Manford.

I'm seeing Dylan Moran too, but it's in November, I can't wait.

At the moment my favourite standup is Andrew Lawrence, but the friends I went with just thought he was weird. He is terrifying though.

I really like Jon Richardson too, even if he did ask me a question (note to self: never sit in the front row) and took the piss. =D
