Gigs, Radio bits, and Other Things
I generally tour 3 types of shows, all a bit different:
- Solo stand-up shows in churches
- An Evening of (Very) Old Radio) - solo show in arts centres etc (there's comedy in it - the BBC origin story)
- Comedy club gigs (ie a 20min set or MC, with other comedians)
