    Hello. Thanks for enjoying my discomfort. A 50 year old version of this man in two years into a mammoth tour of all the joke he wrote in lockdown called Gary in Punderland. Garydelaney.com for remaining dates. Tour ends in November 23

    Great to watch you Gary in the early days..considering you felt you knew nothing that was actually quite a polished performance from someone knew to the game..the confidence to get up and do that is worth the accolade alone 😄

    Wow! And that makes you cringe? You were so confident and hilarious! 🤣 Some real laugh out loud stuff there! Can’t believe that was only your 7th gig and your first on TV! Amazing! 😃
    Saw you on your current tour - crying with laughter all the way through! Bought the book too!

    Hi Gary, i hope you are doing great. Thanks for the laughs. I wrote a ton of your 1 liners down and read them to a ton of friends the past few days.
    I see you are going to be in MUNHAL, PA, just outside of Pgh,Pa. in Dec.
    Im hoping to see your show.
    Take care.

    • @GaryDelaneyComedian

      @Gary Delaney, Hey Gary, Thanks for your reply and for letting me know. Yes, sir, it's in the USA.
      Im glad i didn't buy the 900 tix for that nite, lmao.
      I told a bunch of people, so i gotta let them know that its not going to be you.
      Did you see that listing?
      When i go to youtube and i click your name that is on my list, i think it's the first thing that appears. There is a picture of a microphone, and your name, and in December. . Lol.
      Do you think you will ever get to the USA sometime in the near future ??
      When I first started watching your awesome shows, the 2 best jokes I started to tell everyone are the CHRISTMAS TREE and THE PRE- EJACULATION CLASS THAT WASNT UNTIL THE NEXT DAY, LMAO.
      Then I lmao when i hear you say that you went to the dr for a pre - ejactulation issue and when you showed the dr your willie, it was the receptionist, 🤣 🤣.
      I could go on and on.
      Getting kicked out of the green grocers for going to the bathroom in 🍐 🍐 pears. That's excellent.
      Keep up your great work.
      I hope you get over this side of the pond sometime.
      Thanks,
      Glen

    We cringe at our early work (albeit mine is music production and not comedy), but really that was impressive - for a 7th gig, that's a big one and you're not really showing any nerves. Can definitely tell you've nailed your style down a bit more now, but that video is still funny. Good stuff!

    It took the audience a couple of jokes to warm to you but considering the point in your career that's still a bloody good set. The punchline to the CD bit wasn't worth the setup, but everything else was solid and I enjoyed the couple of jokes that I remember seeing more polished versions of in later performances.
    Loved seeing you at Academy2 in Manchester Friday just gone - brilliant stuff!

    The girlfriend of three years joke was tremendous! Recognised the last joke as one you used again later, and the CD one reminded me of Emo Philips' joke about religion which is one of my favourite ever jokes.
    For a 7th gig that was awesome! I reckon you can make a go of this standup thing y'know. Just a hunch.

    • @GaryDelaneyComedian
      @GaryDelaneyComedian  Рік тому +2

      The CD joke is basically taking the structure of Emo’s joke and changing it. That’s the bit that makes me wince. It’s one thing to use a formula or a technique but this is a homage at best. It’s so clearly influenced by that fabulous joke of Emo’s

    Good job of marketing. Your opening disclaimers set expectations so low that the quality of the performance GREATLY exceeded them. Also illustrates a reality of standup. People don't get jokes as well or quickly from a new source as from a familiar persona. You were funnier than they were prepped to appreciate, like an audience of radios not precisely tuned to the incoming signal. That's a chunk of why it's so hard to get established in that slice of the comedy multiverse. Glad you made enough jumps to clear the bar.

    I got a joke for you that you can have free. It's my joke but you can have it. Free. Here it is: Growing up my family told me I was going to inherit our 200 year old hat making business. Every birthday my Nan would tell me one day this hat making business will be all yours. When I got to my 21st birthday my Nan proudly proclaimed that I had reached the age of inheritance and today is the day I inherit the 200 year old hat making business. However, since the age of 16 I had a dark secret I had to tell her, I'd hidden it well for 5 years, I had an obsession with TV quiz shows and I'd decided I didn't want to inherit the 200 year old hat making business I wanted to appear on every TV quiz shows and win and fund my a lavish lifestyle lifestyle instead of inheriting the 200 year old family hat making business. I told her I wanted to go on Deal or No Deal, Pointless, Ant and Dec Saturday Night takeaway, The Wheel, The 1% club, Countdown, Mastermind, she looked shocked and disappointed in me and it broke her heart, but she understood muttering these words, 'who wants to be a milliner'?.... anyway...🤪
