Here are some links to some of my friends who are going to be in Edinburgh - go to see their shows! Have also included some links to the Edinburgh Fringe site so you can see when and where.

The Big Value Comedy Shows
If you haven't got much money or time, go to see these at the Cafe Royal. Previously under the Screaming Blue Murder banner, these are now run by Just the Tonic.

The Black Liars

Lovely Scouse lad who now lives in Oxford and runs many gigs around the country under the guise of Kill for a Seat. Another great musician.
