OUT OF FOCUS GROUP 12, FRIDAY 6th OCTOBER, 2006
I’m doing a one off Out Of Focus Group comedy night at The Zetter Hotel on Friday 6th October. As usual it will be starting at 8pm sharp but if you show up nearer 7pm (having reserved a seat if you’re sensible!) you can get a drink and enjoy a video of me cycling from my house to The Zetter set to enjoyable music.
Already confirmed for the night is Todd Barry a brilliant American comic who’ll be doing about 20 minutes of more stand uppy stuff than we normally have. Here’s Todd in action on Comedy Central in the US. I’m also very glad to be welcoming back lovely Jo Neary who does character pieces that wipe the floor with a lot of the very predictable character comedians you see around town. She’s going to be big news in 2007 I reckon. There should also be other guests TBC and I’ll be doing a couple of character things too though I haven’t yet figured out if I’m going to try out something new and watch sadly as it dies or have a relaxing evening doing familiar bullcrap that is more likely to satisfy. Go forward painfully or stagnate with a beery smile, that’s the tedious question. And of course I’ll be showing a few new video bits as well as more older nuggets.
Call NOW, before it fills up with non blog readers, and reserve a table or just a couple of seats for an evening that is being described as ‘a delightfully bourgeois antidote to everything hateful and shit in the modern world‘ Now it’s being described as ‘essential‘. Ooh, hang on, now it’s being described as ‘inessential‘. Now it’s not being described. I’ll let you know as soon as anything changes.
