    Well per my Cat Laugh review, I think Dead Cat Bounce are brilliant so I'll be telling lots of friends to go to that.

    Haven't seen Kevin McAleer in years so I'll definitely go see him. He's superb. Saw Jimmy Carr last year but might go again. I have Dylan Moran tickets for September but I'm not sure if he's part of the Bulmer's line up.

    no he's not, thats just this own tour, actually now that we can talk about it, thats an aiken promotions gig whereas the bulmers is our friends at MCD! im goin to see him, too, cant wait!

    i would definatley reccommend everyone to go see michael mcintyre in the olympia, saw him in kilkenny a few years ago and he was brilliant, and his is the fastest selling debut comedy dvd of all time so that says something!

    also rich hall is going to be brilliant, he always is and by this point i have lost count of how many times i have seen him (twice over the kilkenny weekend) the man is an absolute legend!

    i'm assuming this is an over 18's event....sorry i realise this is probably a stupid question, i just cant find anything to state that it is....although sponsorship by Bulmers would make me think it's over 18's. i just want to bring my brother to see Stephen Lynch... anyway any clarification on this would be great. thanks
