Edinburgh Fringe Festival ’09 – Late ‘n’ Live

Late ‘n’ Live is exactly what it says on the tin; it’s three live comedy acts, one music act and it starts at 1am. You have to be pretty well regarded to get a slot at this event so we knew the comedy would be of high quality and it was. Okay, so the compere, John Bishop (shortlised for if.comedy Edinburgh Comedy Award) made a joke about Muslims and then asked if there were any “Mussys” in the audience. But I raised my hand so whatever.

Jamie KilsteinLoved the letter to the US Army

Kevin BridgesHilarious and naturally funny. This guy could say anything and it would be funny. Shortlisted for Edinburgh Comedy Award Best Newcomer.

Axes of AwesomeTheir four chord song is one of the best things ever.

The whole evening was even more hilarious because some couple kept rowing and the woman would storm out followed by the man. That’s just pure comedy fodder.
