About Me

Mish Mash 27 Nov 2007, 10min set
Brian Connolly http://brianconn.bebo.com/
Well hello there. Thanks for dropping by. I started doing stand up comedy in July 2007 following a text by Aidan Bishop offering me a gig 3 weeks later as I said I had starting writing down some loose ideas. On Sunday the 22nd July I did my first set in the International which lasted 10mins and 20seconds. On stage before me was Keith Farnan, PJ Gallagher and Paul Tylak, following me was Eric Lalor...needless to say I was very nervous.My comedy is very broad and I try to see the funny side of everything, from the Traffic Lights bit to the Asking My Mum To Help Me Find The Clitoris Bit. I’m a full time music degree student studying Musical Composition and also write some musical comedy, I am currently writing piano music to a short comedy drama that I am working on. I hope to end up writing music for TV, Radio and Film.Check out the gigs, maybe you’ll come to one and you can hear just why we should keep our mums by our side...
