    dont like franky boyle find him way to aggressive to be funny and dont agree with his political opinions most of the time

    recently went to see both Eddie Izzard at the echo arena and Bill Bailey at the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic (Bill Bailey's Remarkable guide to the orchestra) and whilst generally both are the same i found that Bill was a little funnier this time around

    although notable mention to Dylan Moran ,

    Adam Hills.


    My favourite is Tim Minchin. Quirky Musical Comedy. Fantastic piano player too. (Piano solo at 3:59)

    Stewart Lee is awesome. Saw him live a while ago at a tiny, nearly empty theatre and it was amazing. Comedy so black that light can't escape from it.
