New irish comedy magazine?

RobbieBonham

A comedian friend showed me this. Apparently it's a new free magazine called Irish Comedy Review. He got it in the George's St cafe but they were all gone when I went in to grab one. Anyone seen it, or know anything about it? There's absolutely no mention of it online. It covers ALL irish comedy, not just TV names (there's no mention of my good self, but then thats nothing new). No idea who publishes it.

It's got Jarlath Regan on the cover.

Anyone?

Hey, the best place to catch it is in trinity, you should find a few copies in the stands outside their S.U. shop. I think they should be topping up supplies in tower records, Film Base, the IFI and Laser soon too. But, trinity always has a plentiful supply.

Got a copy of it yesterday, tis a pretty cool magazine. Interviews with comedians, reviews of clubs, that kinda thing. There's a website for it that goes online on the 1st of October, irishcomedyreview.ie

Hey Robbie (and other posters). I'm the editor (and publisher I suppose) of the magazine. We've got plenty out around the city but they've moved pretty fast so it's a bit of a race to keep them stocked in certain places.

Tower's not your best bet as they've generally only been willing to let us leave about 20 at a time, which sometimes get left out and sometimes don't. When they do, they go within the day. Trying to get a more regular situation going with them and a few other places so hopefully it'll be in all the important places all the time before the end of this week.

If you're desperate to get your hands on a copy, there are still about 100 sitting in Trinity College and a fair few in the IFI and Filmbase. I work in Trinity right now and the other two are dead sound about it so they're the easiest places to leave a big pile at a time. There's about 40 other locations in Dublin that might still have copies but round 2 of distribution doesn't kick off until tonight so I can't guarantee there all still stocked until then.

The mag goes online in about a fortnight too but, if you're really desperate to get a hold of one, pm me an address and I'll send a copy your way.
