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)
