Cork man, Chris Kent, opened for him, and I must say, I was very impressed with him. Young guy who looked fairly comfortable up on stage and had some great material to boot.

Chris Kent is great. He is 1 of about 6 or 7 comedians currently doing the Irish circuit that I will drop what I am doing to see him perform. He performs in the International and the Bankers regularly. I think he MCs his own place down in the Peoples Republic

Pepe LeFrits · 10-12-2013 10:16AM

Yeah, Chris Kent is class.

Pawwed Rig · 10-12-2013 10:23AM

Other comedians to look out for
Joe Colleary
Fred Cooke
Derek Ryan
Tom O'Mahony
Damo Clarke
and my personal favourite Kevin Gildea

There are a few more but can't think of their names offf the top of my head.

Bill Burr is hilarious from what I've seen of him, glad to hear the show went well Knex

We put our tree up last night, it's nice and homely looking now. My buddy gave me back my guitars last night - the old lefty is just poor to be honest but on the plus side it means I'll probably buy the roadster I want to get! The new strings on my Harley Benson are after making a huge difference.

How's everyone today anyway?

Barna77 · 10-12-2013 12:40PM

Fine here. No hangover.

All this guitar talk makes me want to learn to play it.

Take a loan of a guitar where possible and just head over to ultimate-guitar.com - that's what I did, after that if you're enjoying it, buy a cheap guitar. Simples

Hopefully going ice skating tomorrow, never been so...yeah, expecting to get injured!

DO IT!

Its a no pressure past time, and one of the best decisions I ever made. Great way to blow of some steam and just relax. What you do with it, who hears you, how seriously you take it, etc, is all down to you.

I played for about 6 years before I ever took it out of the bedroom

^hahaha

ffs, the housemate has two guitars, and I know a music teacher... I might give it a go.
I promise I wouldn't play that I'd go wherever you will go song

Just shaved off my moustache. Been growing it for a few months. Trying to recall if my upper lip always felt this strange.

It's not right I tells ya!

CastorTroy · 11-12-2013 10:22PM

I have to get my hair cut but I'm kinda getting used to it and liking it, but less sticky uppy in when short.

Pepe LeFrits · 12-12-2013 10:13AM

Going to the barber later to get my first beard trim. Nervous!

Pawwed Rig · 12-12-2013 12:08PM

Morning Folks.

Why do I keep thinking today is Friday?

Bet you feel properly naked without it! It's strange how you get attached to things - I feel properly weird if I've forgotten to put a ring I wear on my middle finger, back on - I've had it since 2008

Just get the back and sides tidied up that's what I've been doing lately, the top seems to stay the way I like it and it just looks less rough around the edges.

Because it is, for me! I have to work tomorrow but our staff party is on so we'll be leaving early and pretty much doing fúck all for the day

Three working days for me.

Heading to Australia for two weeks next Wednesday. Would love to stay for more, but unfortunately work is a bit like the mob...Just when you think you're out, they pull you back in. :P

Sister and her fiancee are over there, so my family is heading over for Christmas. I'm the only poor sucker flying home New Years Eve though!

Pepe LeFrits · 12-12-2013 09:58PM

Was so tempting to go out tonight, very festive atmosphere about. Decided not to as it's keraayyyyyzzeee busy over the next 3 weeks, starting tomorrow with my Xmas party. It better not disappoint.

Though if it does, there's a Beoir meet up in town tomorrow too anyway...

Happy Friday Gents!

*Sips coffee, straightens monocle

That beard is looking fine and masculine PLF, well played sir!

Knex* · 13-12-2013 12:41PM

Had a couple of Paulaners last night as I met up with the cousin. Head is blown off me today, for some reason. Usually wouldn't get it after a feed of pints, never mind 2 or 3!

Motivation to do work: 0.

% of work needed to be done: 100.

There's something about Paulaner, I had 4 pints on Monday night was much more under the weather on Tuesday than I should have been. Not the first time either.

Apparently it's only 5.5% alcohol content but I'm skeptical.

Weird with it being Paulaners - everybody raves about how good the beer is, you'd imagine if it's high quality then it'd have less of the stuff that causes hangovers.....like.....alcohol :pac:

Bad one though!
