SPIRITAID CHRISTMAS COMEDY SPECIAL featuring Kevin Bridges / Frankie Boyle / Greg McHugh (Gary Tank Commander) at the ORAN MOR
I was given a tip from a poster from the Celticminded forum for a charity comedy night for the brilliant SpiritAid Charity.The event was sold out in less than 30 minutes of him advertising it.That is the beauty of Celticminded , likeminded progressive people in all fields and outlooks.
When i got the tickets there was great disappointment for my Son , the event was for over 18s only.No matter his brave attempt to grow stubble and pass of as an adult there was no way i could take him.
Most of my Friends were out of town , so i scrapped the bottom of the barrel looking to drag someone along ; scrapped it again ,and realised that i had no option but to take my Wife.
Frankie Boyle is usually as funny as a kick in the balls ; followed by another kick in the balls and then a kick in the teeth thrown in for good measure.This time he was surprisingly funny , though he did lapse into his favourite subject ( raping kids) to let himself down.Frankie Boyle has a great political outlook and helps many fine Humanitarian and Charity projects.He will have to dispense with the brearthtakingly outrageous offensive celebrity "jokes" and become a sophisticated political satire commentator and critic in the mould of Mark Thomas.He has the ability to do it but i dont know if he will get where he can go.
Fred MacAuley was a superb compere for an all round brilliant night , i havent laughed so much for many a long year.
Gary The Tank Commander was just sensational , im still laughing thinking about him now.
Kevin Bridges was brilliant , i regret my Son not getting to see him this time round.
