It’s been a while since I went to see a stand up show. I used to go quite regularly to the circuit-nights at uni, but the last proper show with a single comic was probably when I still was at school.
Russell Howard played the Wulfrun Hall in Wolverhampton last night and I arranged to go with Will, who had never seen live comedy, so seemed a suitable person to expose to it’s wonders.
I’ve been wanting to see this show for a while; both as a 6music listener, and a general follower of the fringe/comedy scene, albeit slightly remotely. I’ve managed to miss past appearances for various reasons so I was pleased to finally make it.
And I wasn’t disappointed. I was thoroughly entertained for the whole set, and it only makes me wish I had been to gigs more regularly in recent times.
Hello Si,
I was planning to drop in on you in the office on Monday and see all these purple chairs people keep talking about, but time didn’t permit in the end.
I think he’s playing locally again after Xmas if you’re looking for tickets.
See you in Walsall (hopefully!)
