Last nights gig was much better! I wasn´t hitting all the right notes and some gags fell a bit flat but the audience, still ridiculously small, stuck with me and gave me a lovely round of applause at the end. It´s not quite right yet but it´s getting there.
Had a wierd moment in the indoor market yesterday, there´s a shop here selling savaloy dips a real Sunderland delicacy (see Blog passim) so I sat in the blazing sun eating a perfect Mackem breakfast! It reminded me of the Bobby Thompson gag when he´s at the seaside with his wife "Ee Bobby I fancy a dip" to which the Little Waster replies "But you´ve just had a pork pie!"
I´ve become really close to Crissy Rock, her act is sublime and unusually for out here, 100% original. She´s a top bird and a wasted talent. She should be headling all the top clubs back home in the UK. Unfortunately life isn´t often good to her and she just doesn´t get the breaks she deserves.
I went to see some of the comics out here last night. They are all very talented but so out of date, it´s like some Wheel Tappers and Shunters nightmare. In fact The Wheel Tappers is one of the most popular clubs out here!
FTM!
