Default Comedy Night

A mate of mine and fellow Brit is MC'ing a comedy show this Thursday 9th April in Downtown Toronto.

It's at McVeigh's Pub on 124 Church Street (corner of Church & Richmond) and doors open upstairs at 8.30pm.

If you live in the city and fancy a laugh, my mate would love to see you there (so he can do all his Marmite jokes or something).

Is there a more unfriendly place for Brits to meet than McVeigh's?

Just tip the staff and try not to piss off Jimmy Senior and you'll be okay.

Actually when I worked there quite a few of the regulars were Brits.

Do other expats like Jimmy Carr or you do find him a bit too offensive?
I like the guy and his humour but my Canadian colleagues don't like him at all. There again, my favourite comedian is Jerry Sadowitz so they can all respectfully, f**k off.


Oh, I'm sorry to hijack this thread, just thought it's self-life was limited.

It's NIMBY attitudes like this that made me leave the UK in the first place!
