    Dang, sounds like Andrew Maxwell had a rough one. Poor guy.


    Neil Hamburger- I was familiar with his stuff from before and I'd never felt like I wanted to go to a show of his if the audience wasn't also familiar with it. I always feel like the "so-bad-it's-good" comics need to be known to the crowd, otherwise people will just be disappointed.

    Hadn't heard about maxwell at all! Fair play on the apology but what a disaster for him in front of his fans and fellow comedians. Seemed he learned his lesson though!
    I went to see shane langan's comedy literature show on the sunday which was great. Lots of my favourite heads like david o doherty, jarlath regan, Maeve higgins but the highlight was definitely mark doherty reading from a play he wrote, just brilliant!
