# Sickipedia stand up comedy night
A pub in Shoreditch, London got in touch a few days back and asked if we wanted to do a Sickipedia stand-up comedy night.

First I thought, 'god no' then I thought fuck it, let's do it.

My plan is to do it like an open mic thing - and get people who fancy giving it a go a chance. 5 minutes each and I'll introduce the acts - and the act that goes down the best will get a bottle of wine or something.

Tuesday evening - 10th of Nov 2009

If you're interested in doing a turn then post on this thread or email me on robmanuel at gmail dot com

# That would be cool. I won't be able to get there but is there any chance the acts could be filmed and subsequently youtubed?

# Blimey! Considering some of the (albeit very very good) material on Sikipedia, that's very brave!
and the act that goes down the best will get a bottle of wine or something. bottled offstage and followed outside and given a kicking by drunken daily mail sponsored audience members who take umbridge at Madeline Mcann jokes.

# Ah The Old Blue :D
My favourite of all the pubs in Shoreditch. Seen some fantastic bands in there over the years.

EDIT: Also, you should well book Kunt and the Gang to provide some music!

# your guess is as good as mine
I want to get about 10 or so people to do short sets and what they do is up to them.

Sickipedia is obviously well known for anti-PC gags but there's a big difference between writing a gag on screen and getting on stage to do it.

Either way it'll be an interesting experiment.
