"Admission Only £5.00................We Must Be Mad "

No, you must be desperate!

And, unless the rules have changed, I thought advertising on here wasn't allowed?

Andrew,

Its a Wigan Comedy Night... for Wigan people. It's all about fun.... What's the problem

Andrew?

Just pointing out that it is advertising a commercial event "No trade or commercial links / sales."

"Wigan Comedy Night . . . for Wigan People . . ."

Hope you've got Tonker on the door to sort THAT one out for you . . . more fun listening to Tonker actually . . .

Good luck with it darren Great to see someone getting of their butt and promoting Wigans rich vain of comedians rather that degrading them and saying negative things about them.

PS. always willing to help with info.

"Great to see someone getting of their butt and promoting Wigans rich vain of comedians" and also advertising on a board that has a "no advertising" rule . . .

O'Neill funny? Hmmm... Wonder if Harry will get in free? after all he's supplied him with most of his "material"

Harry was invited to the event a few times... At Round The Pole it's not about the videos or aimed at anyone. Its about giving people a good laugh and having a good time. Jimmy is the king Gong this Month a competition for comedians run by the comedy store in Manchester. That shows he does have talent.

Don't judge or put something down until you have tried it.... Come down have a laugh and let yourself go. This event is for Wiganers and for Wigan. No matter what is said on these boards or forum everyone is welcome.

Think of it this way... im doing something much different than normal... Stand Up comedy with a tribute to the 1972 Royal Variety Performance of Rod Hull and Emu with a adult touch.... If it works it will be something very special if not I'll die the death and look a fool.... not the first time on stage...

"Don't judge or put something down until you have tried it...."

Funny you should mention that...have written material for others and performed myself.

Best luck with your act, it sounds . . .nope, I'm stuck for a term that doesn't sound abusive!

Not my particular cup of tea . . . and talking of T's doesn't "Stiletto" have one L and two T's ?

I was thinking about it.... I'm a Bit nervous as this is something different to what I do normally and I have had to add some adult comedy into the act too...

So you're half way there..

Who wrote that appalling ad?

Why is there an apostrophe after the "n"in Wigan's?
Wy does Back have a capital B?
Why are st. and west not capitalized?
Why does Ray lane have a lower case L?
Why is there not an apostrophe after the final "T" in Thats?
When did "Custard Pie" become an active verb?

Are there no standards left, dammit?

Interesting spelling of Stiletto's there . . . did the management help you with your ad on here? Hope your material's better written, eh!

Whacker also missed out on the full stop after the exclamation mark after the second Wigan

Whacker and standards . . . hmmm could that be a return of the Obsessive Compulsive?

Ian you've written material for others , would you consider knocking something together (pro bono) for Darren?

It would be a wonderful act of kindness and I think you both would be enriched by it.

Just a suggestion.

I've completed your script Darren, paced out it should give you 5 minutes of material.
So at £80 a minute you owe me £400.

Here it is;

"I had a mate who was suicidal. He was really depressed,

so I pushed him in front of a steam train.
He was chuffed to bits.

I met a 14 year old girl on the internet.

She was clever, funny, flirty and sexy, so I suggested we meet up. She
turned out to be an undercover detective.
How cool is that at her age?

I went to see the nurse this morning for my annual check-up.
She said I had to stop w*nking.
When I asked why she said, "Because I'm trying to examine you!"

I just saw that Harry Potter film.

A bit unrealistic if you ask me.

I mean, a ginger kid, with two friends?

When I got divorced, my wife said she would fight for custody of the kids.
Took her out with one punch.

I was walking in a cemetery this morning and seen a bloke

hiding behind a gravestone.

I said "morning."
He replied, "No, just having a sh!t."

Disabled toilets. Ironically, the only toilets big enough to run around in.

I was reading in the paper today about this dwarf that got pick pocketed.
How could anyone stoop so low?"





I have your details and shall send on the invoice.

Let me know if you want more.

Thats true Ian... By the way in comedy there is no such thing as the word plagiarise. It's recycle

Now for once Darren we are in total agreement!

Mind you, day like today, blue sky, birds singing, makes you feel glad to be alive. . .
