I finish at 5.30 too, although it'll take me a little longer to get to Central, I'm going for option a, meet up around 6 and grab dinner before jumping on any bus that'll go down Anzac Parade. They moved subway down towards Broadway.

hmmmmm I'm tempted to drive and there's a Subway on the corner near my place.

[unfrufru]

it doesn't have to be subway, just don't want to spend more than $10 on dinner.

i spose maccas it is hehe

i won't get to central till about 6ish i think

Thanks to everyone who braved the rain and came along to the opening night of Rapid Fire Comedy. We had an awesome time and hope you all did too. This week proves to be another big night of comedy, which includes:

MONDAY 25TH OCTOBER

Justin Hamilton:
Justin Hamilton is Adelaide's best comic with over six years experience in
Australia and over seas including performing at the 'Sit'n'Spin' in Seattle
and the prestigious 'Gershwin Room' in New York.
Justin has been involved in shows at the Adelaide Fringe Festival since
1994. A weekly guest on Triple J Drive, Justin has also appeared on ABC
TV's The Glass House.
His good natured, high energy ranting and endless search for the facts has
made him a favourite in his home town and the rest of Australia is catching
on fast.

MC Daniel Townes
A relative newcomer to the industry with his first performance in late 2002
Daniel has quickly earnt the respect and praise of the Industries top
comedians. In the short time since beginning performing he has appeared on
Stand Up! (ABC TV) and has been a guest on Triple J's breakfast show ... His non-threatening and laid back style has the ability to win over any crowd
and because of the easy going and friendly nature of his act, he is always a
crowd pleaser.


And in the open mic section: Dan Moore, Emily Reed, Tammy T, James Page,
Christopher Strickland and Paul Taylor

ok i'm gonna push for subway cause i can't afford anything and i have those free card thingys hehe

[Laney]

it looks as if there's some competition happening now. there's comedy thursday night at the roundhouse too, and justin hamilton's also performing there too.
fiona, do you know who's running that? cause there's no real point having 2 comedy nights with similar acts and essentially both competing against each other. you should join up or take over who ever is organising the other night. *nods*

[Mythor]

Forgot to put that it's on Monday in the newer plug, Antelopeople.

[Fiona Rohana]

no, its all good. The other comedy night was organised before the Roundhouse gave us the money to do our one. They then pulled their own one but had to reinstate it after the union went 'urgggg but you saaaaaaiiiiiiddddddd"

I dont know if Justin is actually on though - he's doing mic in hand that night. (and i did ask roundhousey ppl a few weeks ago about this and they didnt think he was on either.) i dunno. maybe he is. doesnt matter anyway- Rapid Fire Comedy shits on Roundhouse Comedy Series. Do they give you lollies? No, of course not.

4 comics in one night seems a bit excessive anyway. They had three last time they organised a night and even that went on for ages.

Rapid Fire Comedy : 1ST NOVEMBER 2004

Joel Ozborn:
Following in the footsteps of Robin Williams and Eddie Izzard, Joel began
honing his craft on the street at Sydney's Circular Quay. Not wanting to do
the predictable type of street show with a unicycle or juggling equipment,
Joel created his own bizarre style of street comedy which led to winning the
98' "Street Performer Of The Year" competition presented by the Sydney Opera
House live on 2Day FM.
Later that year, Joel moved to America to work with Internationally renowned
comedian /magician The Amazing Jonathan. Over the next few years, Joel found
himself travelling extensively across nearly all 50 states of the continent
including Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco and Tunica, Mississippi .
Since returning home, Joel has become a regular in comedy clubs across
Australia, which includes headlining at Sydney's Original Comedy Store. With
his unique style of comedy Joel has gone on to entertain audiences across
South East Asia to as far as Las Vegas.


MC Sam Bowring;
Sam began performing standup comedy at the famous Harold Park Hotel in 1996
when he was but sweet 16. A finalist in the 1997 Comic of the Year Awards,
he cashed in on his success by running away to Bathurst, where he ran
‘Comics Out West’, a comedy club playing at Charles Sturt
University and throughout the central west of NSW. Upon returning to Sydney,
he became a state Raw Comedy finalist in 2003, and was runner up in the
national finals in 2004.
Currently he works as a freelance writer and partner in ‘Mic in
Hand’, a comedy company which runs two popular comedy nights in Sydney
– notably ‘A Mic in Hand @ the Friend in Hand Hotel’,
which has built a reputation for being one of the best open mic rooms
around.

Dave Jory, Amelia Jane Hunter, Digby, Jenni Thorman, Nick Johns, Joseph
