Barry Award Nominees announced

Nominees were announced last night at the Festival Club.
Nominees for 2003 are -

Dave Gorman 'Googlewhack Adventure' (UK)
Lee Mack (UK)
Mike Wilmot (Canada)
Dom Irrera (USA)
Flight of the Conchords (NZ)
The Concert (AUS)
Rod Quantock (AUS)

It's hard to say who I think would win. My top guess is Gorman or Wilmot, as I've seen 6 of the 7 nominees and to me they would be the most obvious. If it's Flight of the Conchords though I will scream my little head off!

GO SEE FLIGHT OF THE CONCHORDS!!!!!!!!!

The winner is announced Fri 18th at the Festival Club, along with the Age Critics Award, Piece of Wood (Boothby anyone? Every comic loves him!), Best Newcomer, and the two Edinburgh Fringe exchange awards giving Aussies the chance to perform there.

For those of us who can't keep the 72 billion different comedy awards straight, what are the Barrys for?

I like Rod.

I was curious about this too. Can people win it more than once? Can they be nominated more than once? What are they judged on and who by?

I like Rod.
The barry's are for any show new to the comfest, so it can have been performed at the fringe or whatever.
New comer is obvious and the piece of wood is comedian voted, age critics is also obvious.
Please feel free to tell me I'm wrong if am but this is my understanding

The winners were -

Barry Award for Best Show - Mike Wilmot (fucking well deserved too - it's the show that made me laugh the most. Prize is $3000)

Best Newcomer - Flight of the Conchords (hurrah! most endearing and addictive show of the fest! They got $1000)

Age Critics Award - joint winners - Gud and Comedy Is Still Not Pretty

AMBRO Exchange Award - Damian Callinan (he gets $1000 and a flight and 1 weeks accomodation for the Edinburgh Festival)

British Council Exchange Award - The Business (they get $10000 and a an all expenses paid run at the Assembly Rooms in Edinburgh for the Fest)

The Piece of Wood Award (or the comic's comic award as I like to call it)...
The dishonourable mention went to Rich Hall (hehe)
Runner-up - Dave Callan
And the Piece of Wood winner was ... Justin Hamilton!

So there you go.

I didn't know why Mike Wilmot won the barry until last night at the festival club, that guy rocked!! But I still wish Flight of the conchords won.

in relation to Flight of the Conchords you can download 45 seconds ( but only 45 seconds) of each of the songs on their album here. maybe someones already mentioned this but anyway i just thought i'd share because i needed it to hold me out till i can get money and the cd.
