Don't Forget...

Shane's Not Also, But Only short story comedy club will be taking place as part of the Carlsberg Comedy Carnival in the Iveagh Gardens on Sunday July 26th (that's Sunday week) at 6pm. And he has assembled a line-up of comedian/writers the like of which will never again take to the stage together in a 90 minute period ever again. The League of Gentlemen's Jeremy Dyson is flying over especially. IF Comedy winner David O'Doherty will be there, as will his frighteningly talented brother Mark Doherty, Aprés Match's Barry Murphy, Maeve Higgins, Jarlath Regan, Kevin Gildea and Ian Coppinger. I don't like saying epic too often as I feel its over used but this - is going to be - EPIC. Don't miss out on this awesome show and this AWESOME festival. Click along to www.ticketmaster.ie, book your tickets (which are a measly €23) and settle down in the knowledge that you simply won't be disappointed.

A Message From Shane...

Hey guys, I'm afraid that I have to change the start time of tomorrow evening's preview show in the International. Its going to be half an hour earlier at 6pm. This is because I completely forgot about the early International Comedy Club shows on Saturdays.

So that's 6pm in the International tomorrow. See you there perhaps,

Thanks,
Shane

PS If you came on either Monday or Wednesday, thank you so much. I really appreciate it.

Shane's Previews This Week

Hey Guys, just a quick reminder that Shane's doing previews of his Edinburgh Fringe show this week. So if you're around and at a loose end, please do pop in and let him know which bits are terrible and which bits are presentable, so he doesn't make an absolute ass of himself over there. The shows are on upstairs in the International on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday at 6.30pm. Its free in. Hope to see you there.

Vote For Rental Boys

You know the drill at this stage. After trudging down to your local polling station today, why not visit the RTE website and cast one more vote. The latest episode of Rental Boys, the webseries that a few of us are appearing in as part of RTE's Storyland 'competition', is up. So if you have a couple of free minutes, get thee to here, have a look and if you like it, give us your vote.

We really think that the episodes are improving with each go we get so it would be awesome if we got to do another one. Thanks.

Not Also, But Only on Sunday

Hey Pals, Shane's Not Also, But Only comedy short story night continues this Sunday evening upstairs in Doyle's at 8pm. As usual there will be a whole host of wonderful comedians and writers regailing us with their tales, as ususal its completely FREE in and as usual it's going to be so much fun that you'll wonder why it isn't happening everywhere. Shane will be announcing the stellar line-up of the Carlsberg Comedy Carnival show in July on the night, so you're not going to want to miss this one. Bring one, bring all. See you there.
