Oh dear..
Just so that you know, just in case your internal sound circuits are not working, it is possible to buy an external USB sound 'board' device that will have headphone and microphone sockets. Price of the order of a tenner.
Quote: Nat Wicks @ September 26 2010, 8:51 PM BSTI AM DISTRAUGHT. Watching MM's Comedy Roadshow and he just did a bit that I was going to do in my next set! What a horrible, painful coincidence. My 'bit' is longer and I think really good, but I never be able to to it now.
I'm sure I'll get this lots in the future, and I'll have to get used to it. I'm just lucky that I saw the show before I did the bit. Can you imagine an open mic doing a very similar routine to one that Mickael McIntyre did on prime time TV less than a week ago? I'd be hung.
Turn the coincidence itself into a funny sketch ?
Billwill has been to Coventry.
To see the Vulcan Bomber land and Take off again.
Vrmmm, Vrummmm
Nah I think I will let it go to the general comedy wasteland.
On a happier note though, I'm in writing mode now! The gig I'm doing on Tuesday has a bit of an optional theme, that they like acts mentioning. I didn't have any material on the subject of science, but I've just come up with some. Hopefully I can skive work enough over the next two days to put some work into it!
SCIENCE!
Yes.
After a severe Astma attack which meant I missed my leavers party (though it still went ahead and apparently I got three cheers and my best mate threw up), I'm now at Aberystwyth University now and at first impressions, I think I'm gonna enjoy it.
I feel like I'm about to witness a great story. Possibly played by Tom Hanks, I don't know.
Good luck, Jack!
Charley is now a lead singer in a rock band. How cool is that. I can practice my stand up inbetween my screeching & hollering.

That's always seemed like a strange aircraft.
I am off for a poo in a mo & I shall be wiping my arse with kitchen towel or my husbands socks as we are out of Charming.

Oi mush they're faster and sexier than your ungainly looking B52s.
They look like a cock with to 4 by 2s strapped to them trying to fly.

Ah, the Vulcan. A proper plane. Did the ground shake as normal on take off?

I wouldn't worry about some one usin the same subject as your good self. I doubt he uses the exact same joke. Besides lights in toilets is a broad enough subject to write yourself out of.
And if it makes you write more all the more fun.
Science is a lovely broad subject. Everything from Stephen Hawkins having a blind date with Davros to Hull disproving Darwin's theory of evolution.
Oh and Billwill's idea is a topper. A routine on being you were paranoid that famous comics are stalking you sounds ace.
(I may write it myself before performing it to my carboard cut out audience and cheering myself hysterically).
