    I usually just check Ticketmaster religiously, but this gig really appeared out of nowhere. I have him on my ticketmaster "favorite acts" which means you're supposed to get emails before they go on sale, but none came.

    I think this gig was announced on his facebook and went on sale very quietly.

    I missed it and had to get them off ebay, luckily got the tickets for €20 on ebay.

    I went on the Saturday and thought he was incredible. It was a very informal gig and he was interacting with the crowd loads to build up material for his Comedy Roadshow.

    He did some of his new material and came out with pages of material he had thought of. Usually this would be highly unusual/unprofessional but nobody was under any illusions about the gig and the low ticket price and it actually turned out to be more intimate and probably more enjoyable as he tried to decipher Irish-isms whilst reaming off some new stuff.

    Great night, 10/10 considering the price.

    STORY?!?! :pac::D

    he was very good, really enjoyed it :)

    I take it you ain't 'poor Ken' then?

    I'll disagree, didnt think he was great, thought itwas him basically talking about visit to Dublin and taking the p1ss out of poor Ken....gawd love him , there on his own!!

    I was at last night's show. It was good, but not great. It was WAY too short, even for the ticket price. He was only on stage about 40 mins. There was no real interaction with the audience, which I was disappointed about having read some previous posts. I'm excited for seeing how he manages with the actual Comedy Roadshow bit in Dublin considering some of the jokes weren't great. I wonder will he drop them or was it just our audience that didn't buy into it.
