Sohail Chatur – @CrookedSword

Mike Mcgregor – @goingtotherange
Don’t be frightened by Mike’s long hair and biker moustache, he’s a normal person just like you and I – only hilarious. Unlike a lot of other comedians who tell jokes about normal every day experiences, Mike doesn’t lead a normal everyday life. With an uncanny ability to pick the wrong friends, Mike often finds himself interacting with people in a sector of society most people are fortunate enough to never see – or have the common sense to avoid. Whether Mike’s doing a ride along with a leg breaker for a loan shark, hanging around with giants, midgets, strippers, ex-convicts and future ex-convicts, one thing’s for sure – this is one act and stand up comedian that you will want to see again and again.
