Who is cheap and good?

I really want to go to the Fest, but as per usual, I don't have a lot of money. Free is always good, but under $25 per person is okay too.

For the budget-minded and others who are just poor, who is the both good and cheap?

Have a look at halftix (next to the metcard shop at Townhall on Swanston St). We got most of our shows there for around $10-15, including some of the bigger names. The only problem is that you have to physically go there to see what's on.

My show is damn cheap ($15/$12) and if you ask at the info booth there might be 2-for-1 coupons ...

I am only going to the cheap shows or those I know people in this year, it works out better anyway as lots of people go to see the big names already.

The Zinger Machine guys are meant to be quite good, and are quite cheap.

I went looking for your show on the ComFest website. I couldn't find it, and I even know your real name.

Help me out with a link? Thanks.

To the others, thank you for your suggestions. I will check them out. Anyone else I should consider?

Only two more nights of his comedy festival show to go - one in a few hours' time and tomorrow. After that's there's no more.

Note that the Sunday show is not on an hour earlier and is still at 9pm.
