I will be doing a 15 minute set at the Classic this coming Saturday (8th Aug) as part of the 24 hour Classic Laugh-a-thon. My set will be sometime between 1pm and 5.30pm (nice and vague). The event is to raise funds for the 2009 Telethon. More information can be found here

As part of a promo done by TVNZ for the NZ Comedy Festival this year, we were allowed to submit a short video to advertise our comedy show. This is Reuben and I performing in places you may not (or may, come to think of it) have seen us before. Click here to view it! Feel free to leave comments, thoughts, abuse below the video.

…will be mental. Not in a sectioning, being led away by men in white coats way; I mean more in a mental busy way. The comedy festival kicks off in just over five weeks and our show is just seven weeks away. With most of the practical stuff sorted, now we can focus on marketing (as painful as that word is to use, but it’s for a good cause. Honest) and selling out (in a ticketing sense, not in a “Yeah sure, I’d love to do the next McCains advert” sense) for the three nights. [More]

Some more pics and a new blog page have been added to the site. Check them out!

Well, I tried it. And I loved it. I am, of course, referring to trying my hand at being MC at a comedy show. I was quite terrified before the gig to be honest as I knew that being MC is quite different to having a slot in a standard comedy show. You cannot simply go up on stage and launch into your material with the briefest of introductions like you normally would. Being MC forces you to interact with the crowd, asking them the general questions (where are you from, what do you do etc) and involving them in the show from the off. [More]

Over the next few months in the run-up to our festival show, Reuben Lee and I will be trailed by cameramen. This is in preparation for a documentary which is in development. More details will be added to my site once I have them!
