Edinburgh Fringe: 4 Aussies For Aussies - The Raging Bull

Our first show at the Fringe! Caught by a rainstorm (in Scotland?!?!?) the app said this was the nearest comedy show to our sodden carcasses and it was free pay what you want!

This is bang-average stand-up.

That isn't to disparage it at all. Four Australian blokes each doing 15 minutes of material - nothing particularly avant-garde or challenging. Just some decently funny (albeit well worn) observations about kids names, customer surveys at Tescos, and whether leaving skid marks is cultural heritage.

That said, I did have a soft spot for the comedian who walked on stage and dryly said, "Oh. Wow. A sitting ovation…"

For a free show on a cloudy Sunday it was perfectly fine. If you like straightforward stand-up, you can't go wrong with this.
