Enjoyed GUD's opening, but agree with people that it would have been a more fitting finale... and Cam needs to shave...

I liked most of the performances, found myself not laughing at some, but I guess it just goes to show that different people laugh at different things.

Tripod were crap! Bring back the standards of old, like Ghost Ship, etc.

It's a bad look. He's making Mick look pretty.

Cameron looked his best during his first year of the fest. Since then he has deteriorated.

I'm not saying a very aggressive four minute spot whilst jetlagged and only being in the country for an hour is at all evenly indicative of who he is as a performer, but I was so petrified for the guy in the box! It wouldn't neccessarily deter me from seeing his show, but I would make it a priority to sit at the very, VERY back.
Yeah - I can see how you would see that - he does talk to the audience a lot but his stand-up is top shelf, absolutely insane fucking brilliance. I had people with me watching the gala that were sitting there going 'oh no! that would be horrible!' but when you're in a smaller room it's funnier and less scary seeming - it would've been funnier if they hadn't cut him down cos the whole point of the joke is that guys never get the noises right (i assume they did cut him down anyway.) He's a madman, but he's a fun madman.

and Myth - re: Demetri being boring :P

no, i find the words more entertaining than anything but how many stand-ups just play a guitar along with their jokes? I think it's a very charming idea because it makes him stand out and be different.

Suddenly im very disappointed that iam going to see Tripod this year. I thought GUD weren't all that bad. Loved Stephan K Amos, was disappointed with Bill Bailey because they drummed him up so much and his act didn't make me laugh once. It was alright. Glad I didn't actually pay to go this year I would have been disappointed.

Yeah it wasn't great. I don't think it got any real laughs from the crowd.

Was quite disappointed that they edited down a lot of the acts. Even Gud got cut down a bit.
And what happened to Sean Lock. He was in the adds then they didn't end up showing him. If they weren't going to show him why put him in the adds in the first place.

It didn't get a great deal of a reaction, but it wasn't bad...I could tell it was an okay concept, it just really didn't work at the Gala, which is a bit of a shame. If you were going to flop, the Gala is not a good place for it.

Well I thought he still looked pretty with or without the facial hair, follicles are only skin deep you know


And I got a hug out of him last year at the comedy store!! Well, maybe I kinda sprung it on him, but anyway, same result!

Apparently there's an audience shot and I'm highly visible in it. I must be, as seven different people sent me a message to tell me that I'd been seen. I'll have to find out who was on at the time, certainly wasn't Tripod, as I would have looked disappointed, and the editors wouldn't have liked that.

They showed someone at least twice sitting there not looking very amused. It may have been the same shot shown twice, not sure.
But yes, it could have been during Tripod. And if it was you they showed two times (or more) then it could have been 'during' multiple things.

Shit, maybe it was when Demitri Martin was on, i really cant remember.... DAMN IT! I should have put it in my text! I was going too...

i have some kind of concept of what im doing. hands go here, feet go there, mouth goes here, this lines up with that, insertion, extraction, release, repeat if required/requested. Good? Good.

I thought I was safe, I was so close to the nearest camera that they wouldn't be able to focus it.
