I've got tickets for Mark Thomas in March, a show about national identity. He always gets you thinking as well as laughing, so should be good. I think he's done Swindon already, although Oxford and Reading are still to come.

Wouldn't have minded seeing Romesh in Bristol if I'd know he was coming. I need to check what's on more often.

Rather repeating myself here, but I went down to the Leicester Square theatre in January to see Stewart Lee's latest. 

Very very good again.  Especially for us liberal elites.  Agreed the fuck out of it.

It was also very very funny.  Worth catching when he tours it this year.

I think he's beautifully dry and sarcastic. Each to their own though.

I once knew a girl like that.

Seeing you post reminded me to check for Rob Newman, and he's doing a work in process tour that's in Bath and Corsham soon. I absolutely loved Total Eclipse of Descartes. The second half of the show tailed off a bit I thought, but hardly surprising given the depth of the subject.

I have seen a number of good gigs at Uffculme and Tiverton and am always keen to support local comedy events.  Not a fan of one liner type gags.

I have seen Gary probably 15 times in total, hes well worth it, his support act, Steve Day is a mate of mine too, hes a deaf comedian and certainly not a one liner.

Nice little venue been there a fair few times.
