Gareth Waugh - Live Studio Guest.

The group guest Allan was in contact with was failing to get back to us, and we were all getting a bit worried that we weren't going to get a live guest in time. Luckily, my friend Gareth, who is a scottish comedian, that's performed outside of scotland, asked me for some tips on how to impress at his interview for getting on to this very college course, and I asked him if he's up for returning the favour:


As you can see, he was very happy to do so. He just needed to check if he'd be free or not, and luckily, he was. I have to say, I was incredibly relieved when I found this out. I told him to get to Telford for 9:30 that morning, and I'd come and find him at the college reception.

EDIT: The questions I wrote for Gareth were as follows:

     Where outside of Scotland have you performed?
How did you find it/those gigs, etc?
Did you feel the need to alter your material for the place/country you were playing in?
Did you take in to account local references, to get more of a laugh?
Do you feel that the audience had a certain expectation when they found out/knew you were from Scotland?

It was decided that, as I knew Gareth, I would be the member of the group doing the interview.
