Sorry for the lack of blogs for I was attending the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2011. Its a special time of the year where the whole of Edinburgh is filled with performers, actors, comedians and tourists. Its is a busy 4 weeks and I have seen so much. I have seen good shows, bad shows and a LOT of people.
This was a special time for me as I did a lot of gigs for a lot of my comedian friends. I would like to thank Ric Carranza, Gareth Waugh, Billy Kirkwood, Masud Milas, Aaron Truss and Nelson De Gouveia. These people make my Fringe fun and exciting. Google these people and see them in action whenever you can.
This fringe also marks the debut of 1.21 gigawatts. This was a impro comedy team made up of myself, Masud Milas, Nelson De Gouveia and Aaron Truss. We performed 3 times at the White Horse to 3 different but equally amazing audiences. I think this is the start of something amazing. We maybe doing a show next year so watch this space...
Anyway, the fringe was amazing. I got to see some truly amazing shows and my comedy hero, Dave Gorman, do his new show. I feel reinvigorated and full of ideas for my own comedy. Sometimes, living in Edinburgh has its upsides.
I will be back to write some more blogs but for now let me end this entry with a photo that I love. It combines my love of Ghostbusters and Comedy. Enjoy.
Just in case you're confused, That is Damian Clark (Very funny Oz comedian that is big in Ireland) on the left and Me (Des) as a ghostbuster on the right.
