9th March 2010
Another good size audience this week at LLC and plenty of comedy to be squeezed into the night, first up this week and new to stand-up was Rich Pullen, who discussed the dangers of allowing friends to assign you nicknames. Excellent stage presence from the new comer.
Next up, and just back from a successful comedy competition in London, coming in the runners up spot out of 15 in the final london heat was LLC familiar-face Carlos. Many of you who have seen Carlos before may have wondered, what takes place in the life of Carlos to allow for his dark and twisted style of comedy, this week in a group-therapy style of performance Carlos answered that question.
Closing the first section was Nathan Hudson, covering topics from homosexuality, serial-murder and terminal illnesses, all the classics, but then the theme for tonight was death, so we did ask for it.
First in the second section was Andrew Bremmner, another new kid on the comedy block who was able to share with us the mental trauma he had recently suffered following a conversation with his grandma he had never thought he would have. Good stuff.
Just before the second break was Lee Kyle, with more of his unique comedy style giving the front row this week, who may have missed him a few backs, another opportunity to inspect his underwear. The audience were once again unprepared for such events. Brilliant stuff.
Closing the night was Phil Buckley with 30 mins from his new show ‘Jokes not included’ Phil brought us into the world of the lonely Edinburgh comic, and was delighted with the warm response of our audience this week. He admits it was better than other gigs he has performed in which there was once one single audience member and on another occasion an entire front row of CID officers. Needless to say out of those two circumstances he got the better response from the single audience member.
Plenty more comedy ahead for the rest of March, we hope to see you all again soon.
