I'm a little bit too poorly to write this.
Two shows last night which I REALLY struggled to do, felt close to collapse during my show (especially given that I was bunged up and the Hut does tend to get rather hot as the show crawls on). Did that thing you're not meant to do by making excuses to the audience about how poorly I was and all that.
Have been having a bit of a strop to myself at how many people have promised to come and see my show and how many actually have. I know it happens every year, and god knows I have said to people I will come and see them and then not, but I have been disappointed at the distinct lack of 'peers' who have shown support to me. Major double standard on my part, and maybe they'll all turn up tonight, but there it is. Not to worry. Maybe I'm just feeling a bit sorry for myself cos I'm poorly-sick.
It was the last Free Beer Show last night and it was quite a low key affair to be honest. We had a band last night which was cool, and there were only two acts on plus me as the moaning, snotty compere, but it actually went pretty well. I've enjoyed doing the Free Beer Show. I am happy to report that other than the first night I never did a word of material during my compering residency. But I did a fuck of a lot of breakdancing. The audiences have been by-and-large a pleasure, I've had a bit of cross-sales between that and my own show, and I think I've learned a lot about relaxing on stage. And I made about forty quid or something for the whole run.
I'm going to go now as I perhaps need the toilet and I'm feeling a little bit teary for some reason. In a manly way you
