I couldn't find a thread relating to live comedy shows on the forum, so I thought I'd start one.
What live comedy shows are people going to see/ have seen recently? I'm going to see Noel Fielding on November 13th! I hope to see Gary Le Strange next week too. I would also like to see the 'Cuckoo comedy night', where the stars of 'One flew over the cuckoo's nest' perform stand-up and improvised sketches! |

Going to see Billy Connelly tomorrow night in London.
I hope he's good cos I've never seen him live before and I don't want my mum and dad to be disappointed as I bought them tickets for their anniversary! |

Damn you   I didn't find out he was on until all the tickets were gone! He is supposed to be amazing live. Have fun!

I'm going to see Dylan Moran's Monster II at the Wyndham's Theatre in London on Friday 12th November. Plus, I need to get tickets for Bill Bailey's Part Troll. It starts on Monday, but runs onto December 4th, so I may just wait until I know what I'm up to in future...

I saw Dylan the other week at the Newcastle comedy festival - he was brilliant Watch out for the joke about the nuns - I nearly wet myself  Plus he's very easy on the eye - yum

Bill Bailey: Part Troll is great.
One of the best comedians I have seen in a long time, and the end song will be stuck with you for years to come .

QUOTE (superfurryandy @ Oct 22 2004, 11:14 AM) Rich Hall/Otis Lee Crenshaw Ross Noble I second these. I'm sure the others are fantastic, but I haven't seen them. I saw Ross Nobel at a conference and his "Day in the Life of Craig David" sketch is still the funniest thing I have ever heard. And if you can't get to see Rich Hall doing Otis Lee Crenshaw, I recommend the DVD - not as good a seeing him live but still an absolute belly laugh of a show. |

I'm going to see Dave Gorman....sometime soon. He's playing here for six weeks so I have to just figure out when I'm going to go. Prolly sometime at the end of November...can't wait.

I gave up on live comedy after I was denied permission to see Bill Hicks at the Royal Exchange in Manchester. I was a mere 13 years of age and my mum wouldn't let me go because the show started at midnight. Then he died. I have yet to forgive anybody in the world for that.
