Your Fav Stand Up Comedian Peeps?

[gerrard]

well peeps dont think ive asked you this before - who is your fav stand up comedian?

he/she doesnt have to be known for stand up, it could even be a one off performance you've seen

for myself i dont think anyone can beat the comedy meister billy connolly, he's lol stuff to me

[craig johnson]

I agree Gerrard Billy Connolly is class but Richard Pryor or Dave Allen tick all the boxes for me

[GreatSissoko]

For me its Lee Evans(monkey boy!), he's so funny, my brother bought his dvd box set of 6 live stand ups and we watched them all and after every one i had to go to the toilet!

[Scousysmurf]

For me it would have to be....Eddie Murphy or Billy Connelly ;D ;D

Both so funny!! I like Peter Kay too, he's pretty cool

[liverpaul]

billy connolly for me he is top drawer for me and and numero uno but then theres also peter kay, eddie murphy, jack dee, ed byrne and bill hicks.

One you may or may not know about is dave gorman and his stand up show called dave gorman's googlewhack adventure i suggest you hunt it out its basically him talking for an hour and half about a true story that happened to him that is just so hilarious and 1 of the maddest true storys i have ever heard.

[gerrard]

good ones everyone, must check that dude out Liverpaul - dont know him

could you imagine one big huge ginormous show with all of them how wicked would that be

[commando]

Hey Liverpaul, I've not seen the googlewhack thing but saw Dave Gorman doing a thing on telly where he tracked down other peeps around the world who shared his name....that was a good series.......as for stand ups, I'll watch and laugh at most stand ups.....but for lol I'd say Lee Evans for me...he just puts so much energy into his shows.......there's usually a good show around dinner hour 12- 1 ish on radio two where they play all sorts of stand ups old and new.....and Tom O'Connor's stand ups from the seventies........if you can find any of his old stuff (we had it on LP's dunno if you can still get hold of it) check it out.......a really funny scouse take on the world..

Good thread - we have a prog here Commando called the 'Late Late Show'

Tom O'Connor was on one week and was so funny - really underrated comic he is - good call

Tommy Tiernan is also very good - for those who dont know Tommy he appeared in an episode of Father Ted as a young priest who was feeling depressed - Ted cheered him up by playing the music from Shaft

[liverpaul]

thats the chap commando my friend thats where his mates bet him that he couldnt find more people with the same name well again the googlewhack is where his mates bet him that he couldnt find 10 in a row.

I'm not gonig to try and explain what a googlewhack is just type into ur search engine and it will probably come back with dave gorman
