APRIL 5th - OUR NEXT GIG

For those who didn't know, our next gig is the 5th of April (2006 if your somebody reading this from the archive), and we have treats aplenty lined up for you:

First up, our headliner is the gorgeous and talented Hils Barker (pictured above, black & white), who has a whole bundle of nice things on her comedy CV:

She's an exciting and thought-provoking stand-up, offering satirical commentary with an absurdist and silly streak. Hils has also had some exciting problems with her bladder recently that I'm not allowed to tell you about.

In addition, we also have the beautiful and HIY-LAR-IOUS Laura Nunn coming down - Laura is pictured here wearing the same Runs Like a Girl t-shirt she had on when I met her last September, which does make me wonder if she owns any other clothes. Whether or not she'll be wearing this fan-favourite garment on the 5th of April is a matter of much tabloid speculation, but you'll have to show up on the night to find out for yourselves...

There's an interview with Laura here:

A wise man once said, 'If you can make it in Peterborough, you can make it anywhere...'

It must be true, because he was a wise man.

The interview is amusing, and a vital read if only because it reveals that Laura is the third cousin of the original Captain Birdseye. She also has a strange-but-true story involving Press Gang, Hotel Babylon and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels star Dexter Fletcher, but if you want to hear it you'll have to ask her yourself; she's threatened me with thumbscrews.

Also performing are Danny Dawes, Dom Horner, Caitlin Storey, and Joey Obvious, all of whom are very, very, good (but haven't provided any pics for me to post - grrr).

Your compere for the 5th will be known as Mr X, and is well-known for causing grave physical injury to a Koala Bear in his youth. He is an orphan, and was found wondering the sewers of London in the 1980s, unable to say anything other than - 'God cannot be my witness, because I was his accomplice' whilst stealing his rescuers pen lids. The Bastard.
