Thumbs up jimmy carr on tour

just got tickets to see him at inverness im delighted , i have been wanting to see him for soooo long , and when i realised tickets were on sale they were already sold out , i got offered 2 this afternoon i said id pay 50 pounds each im delighted to say there is some nice people in the world as i went through a middle man and they secured them for me at face value $18.50 each , i believe i owe someone a pint or 2

only problem is the tickets i have are right at the front , im kinda scared incase he picks on me LOL

cant wait anyone else going to see him on tour

I had tickets to see him last year but ended up going to The Falklands whilst it was on, gutted however i now have tickets to see him next friday. I've had them booked for months and they too are right at the front but that's exactly where i wanted them, I may even get up half way to go to the toilet but we'll see.

My mate saw him last saturday and had nearly told but me some jokes but i solved this by threatning him with a fork to the eye and left ********, certainly did the trick!

Seen a few live comedians in my time (and a few videos) but I've never seen anything as funny as Eddie Izzard live. Left the theatre sore from laughing.
Everyone has funny moments but that was properly funny from start to finish.
If JC is half as good, it'll be a good night.

(Funniest single moment - Newman and Baddiel, "History Today" tailored for the local area)

Have seen him live with that June Harpong bird.

They were both utter sh1te in my humble opinion - although to be fair some people in the audience did laugh a couple of times.

I've seen Jimmy Carr a few time in the Hen & Chickens, Highbury Corner where practices his new stuff before risking it.

I last saw him about 4 months ago and it was good, but nothing new. Same old one liners, relying on speed of delivery and lacking a story.

Only mildy - a bit like a dog chasing its tail.

He thinks he's quite funny - JC, that is. I'd give him a 4/10 as I ended up talking to the wife about new furniture mid-way his last stand-up we watched.
