YOUR GUIDE TO THE MELBOURNE COMEDY FESTIVAL
Tell us about you.
This is my first MICF.
I’m a Canberra-based comedian who has been described by my dad as ‘my son’. It’s the best review I’ve ever received.
Who should see your show, and why?
The show is for anyone who enjoys witnessing other people screw things up.
Are you a millennial who has underachieved all your life? Come and see three dudes just like you.
Are you a millennial who has their s..t together? Come and see three dudes that you’re better than.
Are you not a millennial? Why are you on the internet?
What’s your No. 1 tip for people coming to see a show at the comedy festival?
Get drunk. But not so drunk that you want to heckle.
Just drunk enough to have to use the bathroom 25 minutes in.
Which other comedians/shows are you keen to see at this year’s festival, and why?
There are a bunch of other awesome Canberra comedians doing shows at the festival.
Constantly Screaming and Unqualified will be great.
Daniel Connell is a genius, go see him, too.
What are your first impressions of Melbourne?
F … it’s liveable.
Who or what is your comedic inspiration, and why?
Demetri Martin is my comedic inspiration.
His material is so intelligent but so stupid at the same time.
It’s something I try to emulate.
Anything else you want us to know about you or your show?
Three Blind Men have partnered with Hana Bar so if you show your ticket at Hana Bar on the day of the show you’ll receive 20 per cent off your bill. How good is that?
