13 gigs in 5 nights.

Just did my last spot at this year’s Fringe. Ended with a good one at The Wild Colonial Boys. It has been a great week with a lot of comedy. Sadly not that much good comedy, but I’ve seen a few great acts. I really wanted to get as many spots as possible to feel more comfortable working in english and I did. Feel really good now. Not as good as in Swedish, but this week definetly got me a couple of steps closer. Wrote some new stuff too. Gonna try and film some of that when I go to London in a couple of weeks.

Plane for Stockholm leaves in 5 hours so I really don’t think there is much use going to bed. When I do have to get up after a few hours I never sleep well anyway. Constant stress that i won’t wake up when the alarm goes off. Might as well stay up.

Hoping to be back in Edinburgh next year, that time for the duration of the festival and with my own 1-hour show.

Thanks to everybody who put me on their shows and especially to Michael Taylor who arranged most of it. Also great fun to hang out with a couple of swedes who just happened to be here at the same time. One thing I’m gonna remember from this festival is the worst pickupline ever: “I use to wank off to Pippi Longstockings”  Sadly I never got to see if it worked. I Doubt it.
