Title: Frank Skinner Post by: Ralphy on Wednesday, May 9, 2007, 14:34:43 I'm off to see him tonight at my local theatre in Chipping Norton.
Never seen him before, i've heard he's quite good? Title: Frank Skinner Post by: Miss Angry on Wednesday, May 9, 2007, 14:52:59 He was or is going to be at the art center but i forgot about it... I think he's ace!
Title: Frank Skinner Post by: Ralphy on Wednesday, May 9, 2007, 15:00:49 I'm looking forward to it.
Last decent comedy i saw was League of Gentlemen Live. Title: Frank Skinner Post by: land_of_bo on Wednesday, May 9, 2007, 15:43:25 I got tickets last week for Ricky Gervias at Colston Hall, Brizzle, in June.
Enjoy Frank, bet he'll be pissed! :beers: Title: Re: Frank Skinner Post by: janaage on Wednesday, May 9, 2007, 16:19:16 Quote from: "Ralphy" I'm off to see him tonight at my local theatre in Chipping Norton. Never seen him before, i've heard he's quite good? You've never seen him before? He's quite funny, he used to be on Fantasy Football League and he's had his own chat show on TV. He's a brummie, West Brom fan. I reckon you'll like him Ralph. Still I'm surprised you bought tickets to see a comedian that you've never seen before. Title: Frank Skinner Post by: Ralphy on Wednesday, May 9, 2007, 16:20:59 No!!!
I've obviously seen him on Fantasy Football but i've never seen him do a stand up sketch! Title: Frank Skinner Post by: janaage on Wednesday, May 9, 2007, 16:24:30 8)
Title: Frank Skinner Post by: Bennett on Wednesday, May 9, 2007, 16:37:47 i don't like frank skinner, since fantasy football he's just got worse
Title: Frank Skinner Post by: janaage on Wednesday, May 9, 2007, 16:38:51 I fucking hate it when he sings.
Title: Frank Skinner Post by: yeo on Wednesday, May 9, 2007, 16:47:35 His stand up is pretty crude I believe stuff about crack heads sucking off horses and the like :mrgreen:
Title: Frank Skinner Post by: Ginginho on Wednesday, May 9, 2007, 16:50:12 Yeah, I went to see him at the Arts Centre, he wasn't that funny really.
Some of it was funny, but like Yeovil said, he had about a 15 minute sketch talking about horse porn and sucking off horses and shit like that, which wasn't funny. Still it was only a fiver, so can't complain really 8) Title: Frank Skinner Post by: Simon Pieman on Wednesday, May 9, 2007, 20:12:53 Quote from: "land_of_bo" I got tickets last week for Ricky Gervias at Colston Hall, Brizzle, in June.

SHAUN TAYLOR on Wednesday, May 9, 2007, 20:26:13 So he's doing 'horse porn' gags at Swindon Arts Centre at £5 a ticket.
So......Frank.......is this how you saw your career panning out????? Yep, that's what I thought :? Title: Frank Skinner Post by: Simon Pieman on Wednesday, May 9, 2007, 20:28:33 To be fair there have been some good acts there, like Sean Locke and Bill Bailey
Title: Frank Skinner Post by: Ralphy on Wednesday, May 9, 2007, 20:32:30 Just got back.
Was only a 1 hour 15 min sketch. I honestly didn't find him that funny and one joke i thought was abit boarderline. He was talking about pop groups who were one hit wonders and he said Bin Laden was also one. Then he said ''well Bin Laden is more like a 2 hit wonder'' :o :) Title: Frank Skinner Post by: OOH!

Ive just got tickets to see him in November
Title: Frank Skinner Post by: Ralphy on Thursday, May 10, 2007, 09:49:01 He was ok Charlotte but nothing to write home about.
He talks about oral sex alot and granny porn. :?

Enjoy Frank, bet he'll be pissed! :beers: I just got a couple as well. You going on the saturday or the friday? As I've said in previous threads, Gervais was disappointing. At least it can be crossed of the list. Title: Frank Skinner Post by: neville w on Thursday, May 10, 2007, 10:03:14 I've only been to a few stand-up shows. I've never found them brilliant, due to the fashion for foul language and dodgy subjects, although I realise that's partly the point.
I guess the enjoyment factor comes as much with the people you go with and the level of drunkeness involved, but that's a fine balance as well.

At least it can be crossed of the list. I thought Animals and Politics were pretty good, certainly different type of stand up performance. I'll reserve judgement until I see him. I still want to see Jack Dee live at some stage. Title: Frank Skinner Post by: Sippo on Thursday, May 10, 2007, 11:53:01 Si, Animals and politics had me in tears. It was as if this one was just a routine. Perhaps I had high expectations because of the previous ones. I found Will Smith, his warm up act, funnier. But this is my opinion. You might be different..
Title: Frank Skinner Post by: Simon Pieman on Thursday, May 10, 2007, 11:57:07 Still it'll probably be more entertainment than Hereford vs Swindon and cheaper too
Title: Frank Skinner Post by: Sussex on Thursday, May 10, 2007, 12:04:47 Quote from: "simon pieman" I still want to see Jack Dee live at some stage. Saw him about eight years ago. Fookin ace it was too. Title: Frank Skinner Post by: Arriba on Thursday, May 10, 2007, 12:12:33 not in bobby davro or les dennis's league :D
Title: Frank Skinner Post by: Jamiesfuturewife on Thursday, May 10, 2007, 13:00:12 Harry Hill live is the funniest EVER - Ive seen him live 3 times
Not to everyones tastes Ill agree but me and dad find him hilarious No swearing or foul jokes - just pure stupidness Title: Frank Skinner Post by: STFCBird on Thursday, May 10, 2007, 13:04:40 Paddy Mc was fooking ace, and he took his clothes off
Title: Frank Skinner Post by: Sippo on Thursday, May 10, 2007, 13:07:37 Quote from: "STFCBird" Paddy Mc was fooking ace, and he took his clothes off Typical response!! :wink: Bet you loved the Cheggars bit aswell. I've got that tour on DVD. Title: Frank Skinner Post by: mattboyslim on Thursday, May 10, 2007, 13:08:48 I maintain that Bill Bailey is the best stand up ever - mad a windows love the bloke. Gervais was OK, better than my low expectations, but only just - some good gags but nothing massivley special comapred to soem stand-ups I've seen.
Title: Frank Skinner Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Thursday, May 10, 2007, 13:25:32 Gervais is over rated - FACT!
The Office was genius. But everything since.......meeeeh! :? Title: Frank Skinner Post by: STFCBird on Thursday, May 10, 2007, 13:28:30 Quote from: "Sippo" Quote from: "STFCBird" Paddy Mc was fooking ace, and he took his clothes off Typical response!! :wink: Bet you loved the Cheggars bit aswell. I've got that tour on DVD. That was minging but very funny :D I see they are making a new series of Pheonix nights - fucking ace. Title: Frank Skinner Post by: Sippo on Thursday, May 10, 2007, 13:30:43 Dink dank doo....aceness.
Will it be pushing it tho? I thought they were doing another series of Max and Paddy aswell. Title: Frank Skinner Post by: Simon Pieman on Thursday, May 10, 2007, 13:31:09 Quote from: "OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR" Gervais is over rated - FACT! The Office was genius. But everything since.......meeeeh! :? I actually agree with that as well, OST. Extras has been hit or miss, more miss with the last series I thought. His 'stand up' moments have been good, although they are more monologues I guess. Saying that though, I do like the irony of his comedy. Title: Frank Skinner Post by: STFCBird on Thursday, May 10, 2007, 13:31:22 I don't care. It's ace.
