With the Comedy Festival on in Melbourne, I usually check out a half a dozen shows during the month the festival it was on. Tonight it was Mark Watson and the guy is just insane. First of all was him explaining how he does his comedy (unlike most comics, Mark's low points are at the beginning and end, with the middle being good), and how he calls on audience participation without embarrassing audience members (Where you from? Brisbane. Oh I fucked your mum). It's incredible the speed the guy delivers material at, going on huge tangents on several times throughout the show while still managing to get both on topic and staying on time. Mark is also doing a 24 hour show next week which I'll make sure to catch a few hours of, because I don't think he will struggle going for twenty-four hours straight.
I also saw David O'Doherty, good but not great. He said he was under the weather tho, and that could of effected it.
