Thank you very much for you...Ladies and gentlemen,<br /><br />Thank you very much for your comments. My general policy is to always leave comments open, and while I must admit to enjoying the repartee between combatants here, it's probably time to respectfully draw this round to an end.<br /><br />I will do this in the classic internet way: by invoking Godwin's Law:<br /><br />"I admit, that in the eyes of Brisbane's open-mic stand-up community, that I am indeed worse than Hitler."<br /><br />Now that we have officially reached the end point, I would like to thank everybody for their comments. <br /><br />To the stand-ups, I wish you all the best in what is no doubt a tough career. I hope that if I do turn up again that you won't glass me.<br /><br />To my friends, fellow bloggers, tweeps, Burgers and all those who've followed this whole saga - thank you so much for your support, kind words, rallying warcries and everything else. While this episode could be said as displaying much of the worst side of the internet, you have shown me far and away the very best. I am honoured and humbled.<br /><br />I suspect there may be more to come on this story though, so do keep an eye on me. :)Girl Clumsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01056312179921746322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7795390.post-89495963047315735722010-10-07T11:18:34.446+10:002010-10-07T11:18:34.446+10:00I truly don't understand the logic in trying t...I truly don't understand the logic in trying to placate people who've threatened people with violence.

I know that is a lot of anger being...Sorry Marco. <br /><br />I know that is a lot of anger being flung around in here but I'm not being sarcastic or elitist nor am I trying to trap you or something. I'm sincerely interested in your opinions.<br /><br />I really didn't intent to talk myself up as a comic. I thought that 'killed' was stand-up speak for 'did a really good set where everyone laughed all the way through and cheered at the end'. I'm pleased to say that in the four months I did stand up it happened three times. (The rest of the time I died a horrible, horrible death)<br /><br />My point in that comment was not that I know everything about comedy but that with such a brief experience of both the highs and (more importantly) the lows I have a really empathy for just how hard it is to do and how impressive the people who make it work are.<br /><br />I only mention Albion and Paddo because those are the venues I'm familiar with. I really am sincerely interested in your opinion of 'the Hammo' in comparison. I've performed in my share of dodgy venues but the set up down there seemed really in-conducive to a good show.<br /><br />I mean, it's a great venue to learn how to deal with a tricky performance environment. A real trial by fire. But my goodness, The high ceilings, the noisy TVs. On a quiet night you end up having to perform to a couple in the front row then a dozen people along the back wall.<br /><br />I've talked to other open micers who won't touch it with a barge pole but you obviously have a strong connection to the venue. I was curious whether you do indeed have preferred venues and what you thought of this one.<br /><br /><br /><br />And Trolls. If you want to get me angry you're not going to have much luck going after the 'no audiences, no pay' angle.<br /><br />Also, I don't mind being associated with Humphrey. What's the first thing everyone always says about the guy? That he's a funny old fellow, and that can't be a bad thing. In fact we could all benefit from being more like Humphrey. I, for instance, am currently not wearing pants and you could benefit from shutting the fuck up.Dan Beestonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05579585743289114991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7795390.post-30386569557888934722010-10-07T08:11:14.894+10:002010-10-07T08:11:14.894+10:00Paul.

Andrew, that was really funny. You are clearly not the Anonymous who we have identified as the sad individual masturbating in front of their computer, afraid their mother might interrupt ("What are you doing in there all alone all the time??") getting a very cheap thrill from insulting people who are happier than he is.<br /><br />I disagree with Bangar (whom I have never trusted). Both Andrew and the wanker should be welcomed here. Andrew, it is a pleasure to laugh with you. ("I studied at Oxford and my family owns shares in Lego. I was once ejaculated upon by a famous European monarch - male or female I dare not say for I am a gentleman." Brilliant!) Wanker, it is almost a greater pleasure to laugh at you.<br /><br />JB - In my heart I know I am funnier than Moko.<br /><br />Finally, I cannot help but wonder why there is all this interest in Stand Up comedy. I much prefer Sit Down and Grunt comedy. Scatological, perhaps, but personally very satisfying.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7795390.post-87936627592724172972010-10-07T00:55:16.219+10:002010-10-07T00:55:16.219+10:00hey moko, meet me anytime buddy i need a new punch...hey moko, meet me anytime buddy i need a new punching bag, and your bikie head looks primed for a beating...<br /><br />You are so so tough little moko man...<br /><br />And nowhere bob u can come and back little pussy moko up.. well u can run when i finish little moko in seconds..<br /><br />None of you know who you're dealing with.. <br /><br />Oh and Moko checked out your GOLD on you tube .. a link my mate sent me.. why do u wear sunglasses.. to cover your little moko down syndrome eyes....<br /><br />And to u little Beeston boy, how does hammo compare to albion and paddo u ask...

It doesn't matter how good or bad anyone is at Stand Up, GC stood up and gave it a go, because she could and wanted to challebge herself by experiancing something different.<br /><br />I'm pretty sure insulting such people as Dan and GC is NOT going to help this situation, and as I have stated previously, will NOT gain you any allies. Hiding under an Anonymous mask is just proving you're cowardly to show who you really are and is, frankly, childinsh and highly insulting to anyone who thought she did a great job for getting up there and having the guts to do so. So I say, Part, you fool, put up your sword for I, and others, are here to keep the peace and keep the spirit of the 30before30 alive and well, and it will be extremely hard for anyone like yourself, or people such as Marco Poli, or any other pretentious Anonymous to crush that spirit.
