Comedy Music
Saturday 12 April 2014 in London
By TW Editorial | Published on Sunday 6 April 2014
TODAY IN LONDON, ThisWeek’s tipped events feature head-to-head comic heavyweights Alan Davies and Omid Djalili, and emo-tional rock corps Brand New and Saves The Day…
COMEDY: Alan Davies – Little Victories, Fairfield Halls, 12 Apr
Curly-wurly grump, tousled-but-smart TV scamp and just plain funny man Alan Davies has obviously got quite a taste for stand-up after his much-applauded return in 2012. And lo, tonight finds him indulging it in tribute to life’s tiny triumphs. Details and tickets here.
COMEDY: Omid Djalili – IranAlamaDingDong, Udderbelly, 12 Apr
Thinking man’s silliness advocate Omid Djalili tickles this year’s Udderbelly Fest with his curiously-titled solo show, ‘IranAlamaDingDong’. About which little no info is online (about). But so what? All you need to know is; it’s Omid Djalili; source of continual mirth, and star of ‘The Mummy’ and ‘The Mummy Returns’! Details and tickets here.
MUSIC: Brand New + Saves The Day, Troxy, 12 Apr
Celebrating fourteen years at the height of America’s ‘heart-on-sleeve’ alt-rock scene, Brand New bandleader Jesse Lacey and his melancholy men present their greatest anti-hits, not least from what’s perhaps their most known and admired LP, 2003’s ‘Deja Entendu’. And P.S; pre-Brand New’s main event is a set by hyper New Jersey crew Saves The Day. Details and tickets here.
