who's doing that?

That'd be Andrew McClelland's show, which had a completely sold out season at the melb Fringe fest and has currently been playing at Adelaide.

I think that the viewing at the MICF is being billed as the doco's Australian premier (but I could be mistaken) but I've already seen it on DVD. It's a fun and somewhat educational doco (seeing Jerry and Chris Rock and their hero worship of Bill Cosby was interesting) which follows Seinfeld as he chucks out all his old material and starts over, and it also follows another comedian called Orny Adams as he tries to 'make it'. Now you, too, shall hate Orny Adams as much as everyone else does. Oh yes you will.

The DVD was slightly better because it had the bonus short film "Where is Orny now?" which follows up the other guy in the doco to see if he really did live up to his opinion of himself and hit the big time. Anyone wanna guess the outcome??

Ahh.. I so knew that about history of pirates... silly me..

and I haven't really seen Lehmo, so i dunno if i like him or not- I just thought the show name was amusing.

spoof - i'll transfer the money tonight if you like.
meep! book! book as fast as your fingers can.. er.. book...

[sooty]

myah, Lehmo shits me. I really liked his show at Melbourne 'My goodness, my guinness.' or something like that, showed he can do good comedy, but lately he's degraded into 'wow a guy and a girl sitting next to each other. so when are ya gonna fuck? can i watch? can she join in...?' etc. etc. etc. but im blaming the early morn and soul suckyness of safm for his current slide. and yes see the history of pirates, if nothing else, his excitement and passion is contagious (and hes also damned funny) *sniggers at image of Andrew being singing twinkle twinkle yodelling style*
ooh and as for Dave Gorman, i heard that he was giving up stand-up to focus on books and doco's and the like.. Hooray!!!! i didnt get to see him last time! Any signs of Sarah Kendall coming back this year?

[miss_doobie]

i'm pretty sure i saw sarah kendall tickets on sale at the ticketmaster site... although i could be wrong

[Leishpod]

Yep, Sarah Kendall's there.

mmm.. comedy festival guide *strokes it*

i can't believe the tokyo shock boys are coming.. hehehee

also - saw an add in beat yesterday saying that Steve-O from Jackass was doing a one man show at the palais.. now what, prey tell, does he fuckin do that would justify a show?!

(nothing to do with the festival except that it's right in the middle of it..)

*runs off to re-read the guide and drool*

I'm actually not as thrilled this year as I was last year... sad really..

*starts making a list*
