A tribute to 70s Billy Connolly.

Do you remember the impact Billy Connolly had back in the 1970s when he first appeared on Parkinson?
Well Clydebank ’s Gary Moir does and he wants you to join him in rekindling the Connolly of old. Moir performs all of his own material however done in the style of the Big Yin himself. It isn’t old rehashed gags it’s the story of Connolly in his hey-day.
Just like the Big Yin, Gary Moir is a failed welder and he draws on the spirit and humour of the shipyards to wow audiences with a show Mr Connolly himself would be proud of.
As a former winner of ITV’s Stars in Their Eyes – you can be guaranteed Moir’s take of the Big Yin will be spot on whilst the gags are as sharp and fresh as Partick’s favourite son were when he first burst into the big time in the 1970s. Take a trip back to the future and enjoy an unforgettable evening in the stunning surroundings of the Barrowland's Ballroom.
WHAT THEY SAY:
“The man behind The Big Yin Revisited is certainly the most committed and accurate comedy tribute impressionist I have ever seen. Billy Connolly has to be one of the greatest stand-up comedians on the planet and recreating the style and substance of the Scot is a brave feat indeed. But the Showcall faithful audience howled with laughter and the interest generated by The Big Yin Revisited was sure to considerable.” THE STAGE |

The biggest show at the
festival.

CLAP your hands, stomp your feet, put the howl on top! Currently the UK 's most talked about late night comedy show, hosted by the award-winning comic Andrew Maxwell, returns from its roots in London 's premiere comedy venue The Comedy Store to this year's Magners Glasgow International Comedy Festival.
Fullmooners has seen Simon Pegg make a return to stand up after 9 years off the circuit likewise Paul Merton's for 6 years, plus a host of top comics including Dara O 'Briain, Paul Merton, Russell Brand, Noel Fielding and Jimmy Carr to name but a
few, as well as regular breakdancers and go go girls.
Fullmooners always has a very special guest, be it a TV star or an old school comic, and Maxwell conjures up the kind of atmosphere needed to get these guests doing the bizarre and unexpected.
The past two Glasgow shows saw Alan Carr & Ed Byrne join the party. Be sure there will be a huge name howl at the moon.
Sell-out runs at the Fringe in 2006/7/8 secured this as the must-see late show of the festival and the Fullmooner’s night in Glasgow is no different. Who can argue with a show that throws Jade Goody out of its’ audience?
Come Howl at the Moon!
WHAT THEY THOUGHT:
“Brilliant” Paul Merton
“Magical” Noel Fielding
“An amazing night” Simon Pegg
“Continue to support this great show” Jimmy Carr |

"One of the most gratifyingly riotous comedians working today" ***** The List.
"Exceptional"***** The Scotsman.
Not content with two sell out shows at this years Glasgow Comedy Festival, around 6000 people came to see Jim last year’s Edinburgh Fringe and only 20 complained so he thought "If it ain't broke don't fix it" So this year he is back in his favourite 24 hour drinking city to outrage, blaspheme and drink.
"Full of sex, violence and the c word. Outrageous and utterly unmissable" ***** Edinburgh Festival Magazine.
Over the last year Jim has recorded his first live DVD, signed a development deal for his own TV show and hosted the American NME Awards. So is his luck changing? Does he care? Not really... he'd prefer just to get hammered with you.
“The pinnacle and peak of comedy greatness, why can’t every comedian be this funny” ***** ThreeWeeks |
