I WAS ON A PODCASTED SHOW OUT HERE IN EDINBURGH
Now you can hear me,live on the Internets, all the way from the Fringe Festival. Enjoy my guest turn on Sex Tips For Pandas.
(By the way, the audience wasn't mic'ed so you can really hear me loudly over the laughs.)

THE ENGLISH ARE A FUNNY FOLK
You can talk shit about anything you want, but do not insult their football clubs.
You can be in a bar and say, "Your mother's a cunt," to a guy and he'll just say, "Easy lad, there's now need for that."
But you talk to the same guy and say, "I'm a fan of Manchester United," and he'll say, "Alright, let's step outside; you're about to taste your own blood."

GOT A NICE REVIEW FROM THREE WEEKS MAGAZINE
Two American Comedians Lose Their Shirts At The Edinburgh Free Fringe
Free doesn't always guarantee quality, but this particular show is well worth a visit. The main act, Liam McEneaney, is an experienced comic cast in a similar mould to Kevin Smith: American, geeky and very funny. The material is simple, focusing mostly on his childhood, his relationships and therapy with 'Death of a Salesman', but his take and delivery are exquisite. The show suffers from 'Edinburgh Problems' - an awkward room half full of noontime stragglers - even so, the show is seriously funny. Not quite a celebrity yet, but if he gets the audiences I can't wait to see his name in lights - if Brendon Burns or Glen Wool are too much for you give Liam and his chums a try.
Laughing Horse @ Meadow Bar, 31 Jul - 25 Aug (not 23), 12.05pm (1.05pm), fpp 106.
tw rating 4/5

And more important (to me, if no one else), here's a person who took a bus to check out the Fringe, and she liked the show (you have to scroll down a bit).

SHOW GOT A GOOD REVIEW IN THE SCOTSMAN
Check it out. I've been told that The Scotsman are selective about what they approve of, so I'm pretty happy.

NOTES FROM EDINBURGH
First of all, congrats to Blogger for flagging my World Tour Blog as spam (?). Hopefully, once their crack team reads it they'll unlock it and allow me to update it with show info.
Secondly, I want to introduce you to my buddy, The Coach:
He was sitting in his own seat on the R train a few days before I left, so I picked him up, gave him a good washing, and brought him along as my mascot. Hopefully he'll bring me some good luck, although the way the Mets are going, they may need him more than I do.
Alright, more chat laterzez.
