Robin Ince, Upstairs At The Three And Ten, Brighton, April 10
The second of Robin Ince's monthly residencies at The Three and Ten was another bout of intelligent verbal pugilism. Not a joke passed without his particularly unique wry take on life, love and lunacy.
But although Ince is developing a comic pedigree, having starred alongside Ricky Gervais, he too often relies on the same gags. I'd heard a lot of these jokes before, possibly because I've watched a lot of Robin Ince previously. But a comic of this obvious talent - genius some would say - should have fresher material.
It is a minor criticism and a pitfall most comics fall into at some stage.
The packed venue was largely appreciative of his act, and with tales that appear to randomly meander between the absurd and the Gervais-like semi-tragic, but always culminating with a stunningly hysterical punchline, who can complain?
