catmag 337 Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Bit of a long shot but I've got 2 tickets for Jason Byrne at the Gala theatre in Durham for this Saturday going begging if anyone wants them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catmag 337 Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 he's good! and irish I know, I just can't get the night off work. Bought my bro Dylan Moran tickets for March too but can't go to that myself either. Ed Byrne on my birthday though, so that's some consolation.

David Kelly 1245 Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Late to the party on this but I've watched a few Jim Jeffries shows recently and he's superb. Saw Frankie Boyle at the stand in September and he was brilliant too (as was the guy opening for him). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but I much prefer his stand up. He’s got a couple of specials on Netflix. One recent one, one from back in the day - I think they’re both brilliant but why not try before you buy? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 21922 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 He just does very brilliant, inoffensive observational humour. His support act was brilliant too - Ryan Hamilton. Don’t know if they’re still touring together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 30610 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 It’s his residency at the Beacon Theatre I would be going to see so I’d say the support act changes. He does two shows a night so I’m guessing the main act is maybe only about 60 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw him do a great slapstick routine in a pub before we played Fulham a couple of years back where he gave himself concussion by smacking his head off a door frame.

Renton 21623 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 12 hours ago, ewerk said: Seinfeld - worth seeing live or not? I'm a fan of Seinfeld (TV show). Saw him at the Manchester arena a few years ago. He was shit, I didn't laugh once. Completely going through the motions. It was outrageously expensive too. Maybe it was partly the size of the venue. I will never go to a comedy act bigger than 1000 again. Ideally a comedy gig should be much more intimate even than that. What's the point in going somewhere where you're actually watching a large video screen? Utter shit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
