Anybody going to this? I'm heading to Andrew Maxwell and Colin Murphy on 14th Sept. I'm a big fan of The Panel so looking forward to it.

Great lineup really I think David O'Doherty's Edinburgh show won the top prize there so his show should be class as well.

I've seen Reginald D. Hunter a few times as well and he's absolutely hilarious!

If you've seen Kevin McAleer before I'd give him a miss as I saw him in 2003 and again last year and it was almost word for word the same show. I wouldn't be Ardal O'Hanlon's biggest fan either but some think he's brilliant.

Good lineup for Derry anyway and hopefully a good week of Comedy!

Frick, would have loved to seen this.

Seen Colin three times and Andrew once. Both excellent.

Not a huge fan of David's, but loved what little I've seen of Reginald's on the telly.

Any tickets left and how much were they? Looks like it would be a good night out. 14th is a sunday though, so might not suit.

Well the Derry Senior Championship Semi Finals are on in Celtic Park as a double header so a good day's entertainment should be had. I'm really looking forward to it myself.

I'm going to stag night in Derry on 13th Spetember, 14 or 15 of us heading up from southdown, anything big happening the Saturday night?

Just googled it there I see it's nights in millenium forum and bigger gigs...but is there other smaller stuff on in pubs around the city by any chance?

Anybody head to anything at this? I went to Maxwell and Murphy on the Sunday night. Having seen Murphy loads of times at the Empire he was pretty crap this time but Maxwell was absolutely hilarious. THe man is a total space cadet but full of great stories. He especially enjoyed the night before when he did a gig in Strabane and said it was the most mental place he'd ever been. Apparently he is now a "fuckin' Moonboot". Great night's craic all the same!

Saw Maxwell a few years ago at the Comedy Store in London and he was fantastic. Best comedy on show that night.

The brother was at Maxwell in Strabane. Must ask him what the craic was.

I have tickets for Carr in Derry.. think its Feb or womething he's on.
