To the women I met at the Classic last night who wanted my "Levin" t-shirt: it looks like BilliTees no longer do them. Which is a shame because as of this morning I can attest that not only is it a stylish fashion item, but it also makes an excellent travel towel.
I feel that it's quite important to point out that this year's show will feature a smoke machine and a laser - turning it from merely awesome into something beyond awesome. Something transcendental. Something sublime.
Did I mention that we'll have a laser and a smoke machine?
Answer: a shitty review from Simon Sweetman.
(Sweetman also reviewed our 2006 festival show, World Record Attempt, and was less than impressed).
We have it on good authority that tickets can now be booked for both our Auckland and Wellington seasons in the upcoming NZ International Comedy Festival 2008.
This year we're performing an original rock opera, with all-new songs and all-new awesomeness. You should really come along and see it.
To book tickets to our Wellington shows (at BATS theatre from 23 - 26 April), contact BATS directly.
To book tickets to our Auckland shows (at Comedy Underground from 6-10 May), get in touch with Ticketek.
We're on the road for the 2008 University Orientation tour, along with Jeremy Elwood, Cori Gonzalez-Macuer, and Steve Wrigley. Dates are to the right - feel free to come along if and when we get to your town.
We're also doing a few other shows while on tour, including a gig at Fat Eddies in Christchurch, and a few at the Classic in Auckland. Hopefully we'll see you there...
We're performing at the World Buskers Festival in Christchurch at the moment - and our gig on Tuesday night at the Sumner Standup Series in the Sumner Community Centre was reviewed in the Christchurch Press on Wednesday.
Given that we've continued to have full houses since then, I believe we might have found a quote for our Comedy Festival poster this year:
Vulgar, puerile, disgusting
- Ian Steward, Christchurch Press
Funny how he didn't mention how much the rest of the audience seemed to enjoy the abovementioned vulgarity, but I guess the sell-out shows speak for themselves. Thanks, Ian.
