A Succesfull Conversion from Simon to Mud.

Posted on Thursday, August 25th, 2005. Filed under Gigs, Personal.

Well, I did it.

I drank a little too much beer, took to the stage att 88 in Norwood last night and arsed my name up good and proper. :o

It was an awesome experience in that I learnt a few things about the dynamics of stand up comedy, I had assumed that it was a lot easier than it actually is. Anyway, the other comedians were great; Collin Moss, Loyiso, Nina and… some other dudes. All very encouraging.

I’m not sure whether I’ll ever do it again though.

And no, I didn’t record it and it won’t be appearing in any of my podcasts. Believe me, this is something you will thank me for later.

While we’re talking podcasts, a quick update: The Narrow return from Belgium next week and then we’ll get down to editing out some of the recorded material from Oppikoppi. There are also some comedians interested in contributing and I need to sift through the few contributions that have come in from unknown sources and then we’ll get down to releasing Episode One – the idea is too make it something actually worth listening to, you see.
