Stand up comedy in Wellington

get wound up by unnecessary things on internet forums?  No thanks.

I am starting to think this thread has gotten a little sidetracked.

Best of luck tonight Bevan, and looking forward to seeing lots of the YF family there.

Yeah, good luck Bevan!

Pre-match drinkies at the 4K if anyone else is coming along.

I would if I didnt have football tonight.

Good luck bevan! 

I bet you wouldn't have had football tonight if I told you earlier that it was Bevan doing the stand up.

I'm just loading up on three month old tomatoes to throw

Just saw Bevam on his way to the venue - seemed pretty relaxed (no sweaty palms) but a little upset he wasn't going to be allowed to do a soundcheck

Finally found the place after knocking on every door in Coutney Place. Paid a tenner only to find there is no eftpos so we have to go and get some more out and pay another tenner. Frankie just dropped another tenner going to find a toilet that wasn't something off Trainspotting

At the venue and it looks a little like Once were Warriors. I really hope Bevan is funny as they look like they can throw a pint glass really hard 

Beer is very cheap here but that is because they haven't plugged the fridge in yet

Bevan is nervously in the corner googling joke sites

Any gags about airline food? 

Bevan on next. Very exciting

Live Stream?

I think Bevan read out the fever GCSB thread from his smartphone

Brilliant fun. I laughed, I cried, I accidentally interrupted Bevan's act when my phone rang. Two thumbs up from me

when is the next show Bevan?  And is there any chance you can get the thrash metal duo who were busking outside the ANZ last night involved?  They genuinely scared me.

Your turn next Frankie 

Wow, loving this thread, cheers Frankie

:-)

There were plenty of laughs, so I will do another show soon. Will let you know when the next one is.

Now that everyone knows it is you, I expect all of YF to be in attendance.

Hey Bevan - I'd be interested to know a bit more about this from your point of view. It takes balls to get up there. What was it like?

I've done a few shows before, this one went pretty well.

You could always come to the next one and ask me!

I probably should have said it was me on the thread, but I thought Frankie was being mysterious about it all. In retrospect he was probably just being polite cos he hadn't asked if he could write anything first!

no Bevan - FT is right.  I was being a twat and not being helpful

Can I just say a massive bravo to Bevan. I was unable to make it to the gig the other night but heard great things about it. It takes huge courage to put yourself up there on stage in front of people, even more so when they are expecting you to make them laugh!

For those who are keen, I'm doing another show on Monday 23rd.

Same venue, same time:

8pm

Fringe Bar

26 Allen St (off Courtenay Place)

Hope to see you there!

How did you go this time Bevan?

fuck - only just saw Bevan's post now.  Sorry that I missed it.

A horse walked into a bar and the barman says..."You look sad, why the long face?" I heard that joke many years ago and they used it in series 6 of The Big Bang Theory. I can't believe it, but they did.

I remember the shortened better version "Horse walks into a pub and the barman says "Why the long face?" It just adds a slightly snappier surreal edge to it.

Peter Kay used to use it during his Karajokey routine. He also used  "Shakspeare walks into a pub, the Landlord says You're bard!"

That was funny!
