My friend was challenged to put on a stand up show at next year's Edinburgh Fringe which must get at least a 2 star review. Last night he did his first gig on his Road to the Fringe project.

And here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MHAvcOxhP04

Opinions welcome.
(though bear in mind it was his first time. Also bear with the video, it's slow to start)

It must have taken a lot of guts to go up there. I'm sure he will find the video really helpful.
I felt his comic timing was a bit off but I'm guessing that waiting a second or two would seem far too long when your nerves are firing on all cylinders

For a first time he was great, eh'd like tih see him efter he has done aboot 20 shows as he has plenty o' room for improvment.
Tell him tih keep swinging.
