This may be an unorthodox way to use this site, but anyway, I used to see a lot of live comedy, favouring observational stuff with a surrealist bent (Izzard, Noble, Moran, Hill). However, due to bringing up kids I feel I have lost touch - only seen Daniel Kitson in recent years. Grateful for recommendations on who I should look out for these days (i dont count TV spin offs like Mighty Boosh or Shoooting Statrs btw). Thanks.
We've been to see Ed Byrne a couple of times, personally I think he's hilarious. Also Boothby Graffoe, less well known apart from a channel 4 (I think) show a few years back is very funny.
