Busy Busy

Busy Busy this week with 3 shows to do in midweek, things are looking up. Went to see Ed Bryne last night at symphony hall Birmingham and I was disappointed. First of all he had a support act on with him, not only did the support come on in the first but also in the second half. I’m not saying that the support was bad in fact he was OK, but I paid to see Ed Bryne not the other act. Why couldn’t Ed Byrne do the whole show himself surely he has enough material.

Having a few bets on Cheltenham festival this week and I’m in profit at the moment, I wonder how long that will last.

Need to do some rehearsing now for stand up show I’m doing next week, I’m adding a few new routines.

frenzy over Justin Bieber

Went into Birmingham on Friday to have a bite to eat and a few drinks at the Wellington (real ale pub). There were loads of Justin Bieber fans around as he was appearing at the NIA and they seemed obsessed. The fans range from 6/7 year olds right up to teenagers. I did a children's show a few weeks ago and the birthday girl of 7 years asked for some Justin Bieber music and I said 'WHO' and that's the first I had heard of him. She had his CD so I played a few tracks from that for the Disco I did for them. Still at least I know who the kids are into now for when I do my Disco for the kids.

Done a few shows today which were local to me and one in Stone, Staffs tomorrow, that's it then for another week.
