Edinburgh gearing up for the Fringe
starting up on Wednesday. Many venues still looking like
construction sites but all will be ready in a couple of days.
Good also to see local Fringe veteran Ian
Kendal already entertaining tourists and locals as only he can
with his sleight of hand.

At last I managed to get to see our
friend Lucy
Porter perform last years Fringe show "Fool's
Gold". Since I last saw Lucy she got married to
fellow performer Justin Edwards last year and they now have their
own little production on the way. Lucy still has a few dates to go
of this UK tour so go and see her if you can.

Happy Easter to one and all. The most
recent show I went to see was Jus'
Like That! An Eveing With Tommy Coper despite not being a
Tommy Cooper fan I loved Clive Mantle's performance and what a
lovely man he is. Such a gentleman what a pleasure to meet him
after the show.

Boyle visits the Alhambra Theatre Dunfermline for three
nights 24th, 25th and 26th March 2010.
Sadly due to a press embargo, of which we
were unaware, we have been requested to remove this review. We
have done so immediately once we were made aware of the situation.

OMG is it possible it is the first of
March already. Geoff and I had a bit of a hectic weekend with Only
An Excuse? on Friday, Craig
Hill - 40 Love on Saturday and Beyond
the Barricade on Sunday. Three superb shows in 3 days.

Our first visit of 2010 to the Alhambra
Theatre was to see Jonathan
Watson in 'Only An Excuse?' appologies to comedian writer Phil
Differ for not recognizing him in the green-room. Despite my
dislike of football I had a good night but I suspect Geoff enjoyed
it even more. We go to Kirkcaldy tonight to see Craig Hill and off
to Edinburgh Playhouse on Sunday to see Beyond The
Barricade. The new programme for The Alhambra
Theatre Dunfermline has been announced with some fantastic
shows coming soon.

I still can not fully take in the fact
that Jason Wood has been taken from us but Geoff and I spent the
evening in a way Jason would have wanted us to laughing at some
really good comedy, at the Stand Comedy Club in Edinburgh with Russell
Kane and Sadie Hasler. We had a fabulous night and look
forward to seeing them again soon.

Sheila and I are devastated to hear of
the loss of one of the 'nice guys' in the comedy world with the
passing of Jason Wood. He was such a talented performer and is
going to be sorely missed by everyone who had the privilege to
know him. Our thoughts go out to his family and friends.

Second last day of 2009 and I had been
confined to the house by both snow and a chest infection. I had
not been out for over a week what better way to get out and almost
finish my reviewing for this decade than to see the latest
Scottish phenomenon that is the Red
Hot Chilli Pipers. Two sell out shows and a matinee in the
Alhambra Theatre Dunfermline going to show just how popular they
are. Geoff saw them on the 18th I saw the matinee on the 29th.
Geoff went back to the evening show which we have called Red
Hot Chilli Pipers Red
Hot Hoolie The Sequel this was the chance to review the two
support acts. One
more show to go again at the Alhambra Theatre Dunfermline review
to follow shortly.

Thanks to this miserable cold I missed
out on seeing not only Bill
Wyman's Rhythm Kings but also Ian Rankin who was in the
audience. I will be confined to barracks whilst the Moscow Ballet
performs 'The Sleeping Beauty' also at The Alhambra Theatre
Dunfermline on Saturday 21st November. I do hope I'm better
for, ABBA Mania, Puss in Boots, Christmas with The Rat Pack, Red
Hot Chilli Pipers and many more great shows at the Alhambra
Theatre in November and December.

Thanks to a miserable cold I missed out
on one of the best gigs this decade Brendon
Burns at The Stand Comedy Club in Edinburgh. He did however
tell me he'd be back soon but it wont be soon enough for me.
Geoff had a brilliant time as you can see from his review.

superb.

Stuart McNiff has been at it again! Not
content to be involved with the great production of 'A
Slice of Saturday Night' about to make its Fringe debut
on Saturday 8th August. He has also sent us a review of Hamish
Stuart from the Voodoo Rooms in Edinburgh. As Unofficial
reviewer for one4review look out for his Edinburgh Fringe Festival
coverage. We always welcome reviews and do our best to
publish them.

In our last little fling before the
Fringe Geoff and I went to see Why Not? Musical Theatre Company
present 'A

only on tonight and Thursday 30th July 2009. They are also
at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 8th to 15th August at The
Space@The Royal College of Surgeons 16.45pm except Sunday 9th. It
is a fabulous show and will be well worth seeing if you can.

Guess what? Geoff, Ben, Di, Gill
and myself have all been accredited for The Edinburgh Fringe
Festival 2009, so planning slips in to overdrive. The site is up
on both one4review.com and one4review.co.uk thanks to Jason of
RoseWired Web Hosting. We recommend Jason to everyone he has saved
my sanity (if such a thing exists).
We will begin entering the shows we hope
to see as soon as possible, so the site should be updated every
few days. Looking forward to seeing you all soon. Sheila

He may not be performing his own show at
the Edinburgh Fringe Festival this year but look out for Russell
Howard as he tells me he will be up for a few days. I managed
to get to see him on one of the extra dates of his recent tour.

time he has been to see Jimmy
Buffett totally new to me but we are sure many of you will
have herd of him. Ben sent us his review of the Edinburgh Film
Festival. I went to see Singin'

Can you believe it Beyond
The Barricade is celebrating 10 years of continuous touring
with a Beyond
The Barricade The 10th Anniversary Tour. We missed
seeing them last October so it was great to see the show again.

Yesterday was officially the Summer
Solstice and for Geoff and I It was certainly a long day. Very
enjoyable but long. Morning and afternoon spent trying to plan
what we would like to see during the Fringe, a quick visit to the
family, off to East End Park for the celebration at the end
of 'A Dander for Mary' in aid of the Mary
Leishman Foundation and finally off in to Edinburgh to The
Stand Comedy Club. East End Park saw the debut
performance of Lynsay B. and her new band followed by a set from
husband Mark and the band. The show at the Stand included 5 acts
and a compere at the massive cost of £1 for members. We had
a fantastic day.

It may be the longest day but with all
the work Geoff, Ben, Diane and I are having to do before the
Edinburgh Fringe Festival we need about 6 weeks of longest days.
Last night Geoff and I took friends Lynsay and Mark to see Craig
Hill, Mark being a semi retired performer somehow managed to
get himself up on stage with Craig. Still a great night was had by
all. For the full review see Craig
Hill 20-06-2009. As we start getting the Fringe
Programme settled pages will start to appear with details of all
the shows we hope to see. Meanwhile enjoy Craig!
