Doing Rudy's Revenge this wednesday. Haven't tried desperately Seeking Stagetime yet - any good?
Stand up Comedy. Page 28
I'm randomly on the mailing list for five minutes of fame - it sounds like both of you did awesomely. Definitely post if either of you are in Wales for a gig, would be great to come along!

I got the same thing from Hackney - fingers crossed they think I've done enough!
Yeah, I'd definitely recommend Desperately Seeking - they put on a really good night. Good luck at Rudy's tomorrow, Stu!
I always thought Descarte should have become a pop star... you know he would chart well.
As you were.
"I think therefore I can do what I want."
Descartes Blanche.
Turns out what Descartes actually said was, "I think, therefore I do Japanese wrestling". Cogito, Ergo Sumo.
I always thought Descartes said his dog ate his maths homework.
Dog eato There go Sums.
And I will be doing gigs in Hull next week. Let's see if Sootyj can cheer up the UK's most suicidal and overweight city.
Next stop curing Hackney of having the highest rate of mental illness in Europe.
Have you ever recorded yourself performing stand-up? I would like to see it (again) without going anywhere near Hull.
I just discovered myself billed as "one of our Druids Arms favourites, Mr Danny Banks." I'm kind of chuffed, anyone in Kent not busy on Sunday?
Okay... thought I'd ask.
'Fraid not, Danny. But kudos to you for becoming a local stand-up legend (sort of, you know what I mean).

on the news page as well of course but worth posting here probably.
So have a Laughing Horse gig in early Jan. Go me.
Got back to me much faster than the Hackney Empire as well which was odd. Also got my official FHM rejection letter in the post. What a day.
Yeah, I'm in for this too. My first competition! I'm so excited I could sleep.
Am also in - with the Feb heats. I've got a feeling this is going to be a long one!
Has anyone heard back from Hackney Empire yet?

When and where's your heat then as we may be in direct competition Bussell?
