Bingo!! See you there dude!

oookay whilst doing nothing at all 2 jokes formed in my brain and I thought I should ask your opinion =]

they are my first 2 jokes so be kind Unimpressed

1. what does nick griffin eat for breakfast? special kkk
2. *to member of audience* HI FIVE! Wait, your name isnt five..

i know what youre all thinking, this guy is a revolution!! :)

Nice, both jokes made me chuckle. Bonus points to the first one for being an orginal one about Nick Griffin.

I especially like the fact you're already imagining yourself in front of an audience. ;)

Hi 5... made me smile.

Go do it live and tell us how you got on.

I would do it live but my age (17) is proving to be a problem..
I'm sure I'll work my way around it :)

we're all going to die anyway

Hopefully not before you're 18!

Save them and then try an open mic in a year's time. Or at uni. There's prbly a standup society at uni.

Bill Hicks started sneaking into comedy clubs to do stand-up when he was 15, so it's never too early. ;)

Tim - stop grooming the young 'uns.

I'm sure Aaron'll 'sneak into your comedy club' if you ask him nicely enough.

That's turning into quite a popular date...

Hey, what about the idea of an actual BCG comedy night? Anyone know of a good venue somewhere in London?

this seems like the threat to ask this question- anyone know any good open mike nights? Any in birmingham would be good.

I want to give stand up a go but all the websites I've some across on comedy nights are out of date.

it's tricky living in the middle of nowhere

As a fellow Brummie, this is relevant to my interests. Hopefully this link may prove helpful:

Find one and people will come.

Saw Daniel Kitson last night. Easily one of the best stand ups I have ever seen.
