I would never normally do what I am about to do - but I am beginning to think that the only way I am going to get potential audience to see my threeweeks review is if I actually type it up here myself. This is going to be difficult whilst trying to adhere to my rule of not reading them but here goes;
" Stars: ****
Mr.Peacock himself even admitted,
begrudgingly, that his new show took
the format of a 'confessional'. But
this isn't the kind of material that you
would share with your priest, no matter
how much sanctification you needed.
All the taboos are crumpled, trampled
and spilt with beer like last nights
promotional fluers, from threesomes
and porn to paedophilia and bestiality.
At 5'6" both up and across the middle
and scraggy haired, or, as he puts it, "A
cross between Jay and Silent Bob", you
wouldn't quite call him 'cute'. But there
is something endearing about Peacock,
and you can't get angry with him, mainly
because you're too busy laughing.
Like a kebab on the walk home, this
confessional is a guilty pleasure"
That's nice isn't it? Apparently I am like a kebab.
I reckon if someone took some quotes out of that and put them on my flyers and posters then that would get people interested a bit, maybe even make them want to come and see it. I've even put the ones I would choose in itallics. And, can I point out, earlier in the festival threeweeks gave a four star review to the Free Beer Show and described me as the "Cute compere" so make your fucking minds up.
As I was traipsing back from a rather lacklustre effort by myself at tonights Free Beer Show I was accosted just next to the car by a couple of young girls. They pointed at one of my flyposters (I always try and park near one) and asked if that was me. I said yes. The blonde one (the other was I think brunette but couldn't really tell because of the street lights) said to me "You write a blog on the comedy site, don't you?". I assumed she meant this one so replied with another yes. "I read it every day", she went on, "I think it's amazing". I thanked her but she wasn't done. "I love it" she said, "You're clearly having a breakdown day by day - it's brilliant".
It so wasn't the 'compliment' to pay me tonight.
