Most jokes seemed obvious and not controversial in the slightest. I wish I was dead Bill Hicks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieStevenson Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Frankie Boyle. Romesh Ranganathan. Kevin Bridges. You know what, I do quite like Jason Manford too. The reason he's not making the list over a slowly diminishing Kevin Bridges is when I seen him live, he came out into the crowd to chat to the woman sitting behind me and I tell you what his breath was fucking honking, I was almost sick I'd never encountered anything like it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarapoa Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 Saw Jerry Sadowitz at the Tivoli in Aberdeen last night. Probably only at 60% capacity, but then there were a few other things on yesterday in the city. Point is - the guy is ballbreakingly funny and absolutely no subject is out of bounds. Notice he's on in Dundee, Inverness and Dunfermline over next few nights - well worth checking out, and can't believe he's still only 57 ! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeeVanTeeth Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 (edited) Have seen Sadowitz quite a good few times back in the day. Outrageously funny. Likewise Bill Hicks at the Edinburgh Festival late 1980s. Janey Godley, every time I see her she cracks me up. One of the above statements is a lie. Edited May 17, 2019 by LeeVanTeeth blah blah blah 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d probably go and see him live in fairness I just don’t think he’s the best comedian and he’s a bit of a one trick pony. Can’t see him branching into different stuff like what Frankie Boyle does for example. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
