Brand New Start...

Hello, welcome along to this ma-jobbin: an attempt to create a network for people practising, performing, writing, and promoting new comedy and generally aren't getting paid to do it, or at least not much!

I started this network after spending many happy years performing improv comedy, and met up with a stand-up friend to watch a show of hers and thought, wow, there's got to be an easier way of finding out what your comedy friends are upto, sharing gig info, reviews, getting to know promoters, and what-not.

It'd be awesome if you can meet a writing partner through here, or find a perfect straight man to take pies in the face, or maybe (just maybe) find a venue owner looking to put on a show containing your special brand of humour.

Anywhat, if you're a comedian, or a comedy afficiando, then post a blog, or upload some photos of your last gig, tell people about your upcoming shows, or howabout finding out that there's something happening near you soon, and going to see it, because you like to laugh.


It's all gravy baby!

Good article on Musical Comedy

http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2009/oct/29/musical-comedy-bill-bailey-conchords


I saw Stewart Lee perform the other week. Lee is loved by his audience, and is a standup comedian at the top of his game – but even he felt bound to apologise at the end of the show, when he announced he was going to sing a song. "No one thinks it's a good sign," said Lee, "when a comedian picks up a guitar."

The 6 mistakes I’ve noticed new comedians make quite a bit.

The 5 mistakes I’ve noticed new comedians make quite a bit.

First of all - I’m not a comedian, but I am a pretty obsessive comedy fan, so take this advice not from an experienced performer, but with the ‘pinch-of-salt’ and contempt it deserves.

1. Too honest too early.

British comedy has taken a (rather delightful) turn towards self-confessional rants and revealing personal embarrassing information. Whilst this can endear the audience to you, it should be left until after you’ve made some dec… Continue

A bit slow?

So, this seems to be moving a bit slow. :( Harumph.

I'm going to urge you to build your community, if, (a big if) you thing this place is a worthwhile idea, and if you know people who might like it, tell them about it. And add content. Then tell them about that. Post it on message boards, twitter about it, facebook about it, blog elsewhere about it! Thank you very much to everybody who's added content so far, it's pretty wicked!

Or let me know what would make this work, in fact i'm going to st… Continue
