Michael McIntyre: Live & Laughing

There was a time he made me laugh so hard I fell out of my seat. That kept up for 4 straight years! He was just amazing. Total genius.

Then I turned 14 and I don't know what happened, but he wasn't all that funny to me any more. None of that changed in the ensuing years.

Interesting, however, all my nieces and nephews thing he's god's gift to comedy. They say, I'm a grumpy guy. And I tell them, Don't worry about it. You guys are going to turn 14 soon enough. Your entire notion of 'brilliance' will shift.

This is certainly the stand up performance that propelled Michael McIntyre to the levels he is at today. I recently watched this for the 3rd or 4th time and found it as entertaining as ever! McIntyre has an approach which is very common within the stand up community; he tells us stories and jokes which we can easily relate to. Many times through the show you will find yourself laughing with comments like 'that's so true' and 'that happens all the time' etc, etc.

Since his first stand up he has gone on to do 2 more arena tours but in my opinion this one is his very best. It has many memorable one liners and subjects such as the man draw, names for being drunk, naming his sons and many many more.

I honestly cannot recommend this show enough, 6 years on it is still as funny. Go and watch it! 10/10
