That sounds like an awesome night. I fupping love DJ Format.

Break a leg Jess!

I'm might be doing this wrong, I'm a forum virgin. I work for a children's charity called NCH. Jess is one of our celebrity supporters and a very good one too. she won us lots of money on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire and has spent time working with some of the young people support who were putting on a play.

Anyhoo - I'll get to the point. She is working with us on a comedy night a Madam JoJo's in soho next week (Wednesday 18th June). Michael Smiley will be there and loads of her other comedy chums. Jess is doing some stand up and djing later on.

I just thought you guys might be interested. If you'd like more info, check here www.standupgetdown.org.uk. If the boys in charge want the full press release they can just email me.

Tickets for the whole night are selling out fast but you can always turn up on the night from 10pm - it's just £8 to get in for the music.

Thanks for the extra info, Sophie. I'm moving this into our existing thread.

Thank you very much! I did think you would probably know about it already but I thought it would be rude not to make sure.

Hopefully see some of you there.

I'd love to go to this but I'm having a small operation on my leg on wednesday.

Next time Jess gigs... I'm there.

This sounds great. Wish I wasn't so skint and far away!

Evening Standard review of the evening

That sounds great. This is one of those times I wish I had money.

Good Luck Jess!

Longer review on Chortle.co.uk

I went last night, and I must say I had a brillant time.

Highlights were Stephen Merchant, Rich Fulcher, Michael Smiley, Piff the magic dragon and Josie Long for me. Jessica I thought was really funny, and seeing her throw some moves on the dancefloor with Rich Fulcher was sheer brilliance.

I don't think those reviews justify the fact that the atmosphere in there was fantastic, even if some lesser known comedians didn't engage the audience as much.

Kudos to Jess for organising such a great night out for a great cause.

Josie was headlining? Good on her.

Jeal. Ous.

p.s. JAAAAAAAAADE! How are you, kitten?!

Glad you got to see it and enjoyed it Jade! Thanks for telling us about it.

Jeez. Does that guy even like comedy? What a miserable git. Goes to show that his favourite part was Simon Amstell hating eveything. Even I feel miserable after reading that.
