hardly think they are unsolicited testimonials... saw all these in Edinburgh...

Recommended Internationals -

* Men In Coats - physical style humour, very similiar to that of Umbilical Bros. All set to music, absolutely no speech, and performed behind a screen, by two guys in parkas. As the press release says "Little less conversation, Little More Action!". Quite frankly, I don't think anyone could see it and not enjoy it.

* Danny Bhoy - he's as sweet and as funny as Adam Hills, and a damn sexy combination of Indian and Scottish. Every word uttered from his mouth appears totally sweet and innocent no matter how smutty. Some reviewer in the UK made the comment last year that he left every female in the room wet with excitement. fair enough.

* Daniel Kitson and his show "Something" - you may have seen him before. This show won him the biggest comedy award in the world last year - The Perrier. And if thats not testimonial enough, I can tell you that it made me both laugh and cry when I saw it. The most deeply honest and truthful comedy ever, I recommend to anyone who feels disassociated with the world or looking for true love.

* Richard Herring "Talking Cock" - it could easily be the biggest piece of smut ever, but Herring has made this show about that post precious of body parts both hilarious and informative... it's all based on serious research and answers from a questionnaire answered by thousands on the net. Girls, go to the show to hear the strangest place some men has put their penis!

There's plenty more, but thats all I've got time to write. Needless to say every overseas comic this year is worth seeing.

Yup, I saw Noel's show in Edinburgh - brilliant! The Moon, the moon

I agree with Sharleen on Men In Coats, very clever!

But if you dont see Ross Noble's Sonic Waffle you are quite simply.....an idiot!

I'm recommending MBG too, as their show would have been the first tickets I would have bought if I could afford to go. Grr.

Oh, and what the hell...

No don't worry... you would have had to attend the Kick Arse Cabaret to get it. Bottle of wine, 2 bottles of beer...

I recommend people to see X Wellington/Wellington X - not direct from New York. I saw them for the first time last year and I really enjoyed it. They're just really fun, sweet guys, and they're really cool to hang out with outside the town hall too - extremely entertaining. An Wellington is just sooooo cute!

That was me by the way...
