So at the weekend I was at two comedy shows. The first one a local monthly night. Run by the class act that is Des McLean it’s a really good night and had Phil Differ as the headliner, most famous for being a writer on chewin the fat an only an excuse? Scottish classics. it’s a great night but can become a bit samey at times. Also had Tattoo Dave, Al Thompson and Craig Alexander on the bill.
Felt I needed variety so on Saturday I did the 5pm Big Show at Monkey Barrel in Edinburgh, my favourite of the Monkey barrel Saturday shows. Mick McNeill who is very good Nina Owens Friday a slightly goofy American, Ryan Cullen a great comedian with a dark side. The headliner was Sikisa. not seen her live before she is a class act and has that magnetic energy the best comedians had. George Fox was the compare he’s a great host ad excellent at bringing the audience together.
What are your favourite comedy shows. These are two of mine.
