Two shows for the price of one.

The Melbourne International Comedy Festival is on and last night I went to see Dylan Moran. I love his series Black Books, so when I found out he was going to perform at the festival I booked tickets. I recommend catching one of his shows if he's in your area.

Afterwards we were offered free tickets to see Dave Bushell by the man himself. He said that there was a bar at the venue so we could enjoy a drink while watching his show. He also said that the bar was awesome. So we thought it would be fun to see a free comedy show with drink in hand. When we got to the venue the door man also mentioned how great the bar is. So by this stage I was expecting an awesome venue with an awesome bar. When we got to the bar we found it to be a table with one bottle each of red, white and bubbles and beer. hmm.. A table isn't a bar! As for the venue it was a art gallery. So by this stage we're thinking.. what did we get ourselves into? But we were there.. and the gig was free. So we got a couple of drinks and we were led downstairs into the basement. But the show actually turned out to be ok. It was slow to start but once he got going he was pretty funny.
