SUMMARY:Comedy Club at The Civic Pub featuring Aaron Chen
DESCRIPTION:He’s back!!!   Sydney boy Aaron Chen is a stone cold killer with exquisite mic technique\, and he’s going to bring you the freshest and most splendid comedy you will have ever seen.  It’s been a year and a half since his amazing Civic Pub show and without a doubt this show will sell out. \nAaron made his mark on Australian comedy with his debut solo show entitled ‘The Infinite Faces Of Chenny Baby’. He toured nationally in front of sold out crowds and rave reviews earning him the sought-after award for Best Newcomer at the 2017 Melbourne International Comedy Festival and Sydney Comedy Festival. That was a very interesting year for Aaron. \nQuite by accident he became the face of Soccer after his live reporting at the Liverpool vs Sydney game caused controversy amongst fans. The unconventional interview went viral and was loved by viewers that got the joke and hated by others. Aaron also starred in his very own Tonight Show\, aptly named Aaron Chen Tonight filmed live in Café Lounge\, Surry Hills earlier in the year and broadcast on ABC TV. Previous to this Aaron has amassed quite the collection of awards including Melbourne International Comedy Festival’s Class Clowns in 2012\, the Director’s Choice Award alongside a couple of other troubled boys in 2016\, and the 2013 Raw Comedy State final landing himself in the National Grand Final when he was just 17. \n  \n2017 WINNER BEST NEWCOMER Melbourne International Comedy Festival\n2017 WINNER BEST NEWCOMER Sydney Comedy Festival\n2016 WINNER DIRECTORS CHOICE AWARD Melbourne International Comedy Festival\n(for Zanzoop – Feeble Minds)\n2013 RAW COMEDY NATIONAL GRAND FINALIST\n2012 WINNER CLASS CLOWNS Melbourne International Comedy Festival \n  \nAaron will appear with local supports \nTickets are $18 online HERE or $20 at the door if not sold out.

SUMMARY:The Grade Cricketer Podcast - LIVE!
DESCRIPTION:Get your rig in to shape and your salad sorted\, cos the Grade Cricketer lads are coming to Canberra for a very special LIVE podcast. \nAs wide-eyed juniors\, Dave Edwards\, Sam Perry and Ian Higgins all dreamed of playing cricket for Australia one day. That was before they entered the harsh\, dog-eat-dog world of Australian grade cricket\, where their hopes and dreams were swiftly extinguished; their cricketing careers subsequently laid to rest. As a form of catharsis\, ‘The Grade Cricketer’ was born: a desperate\, delusional ‘everyman’ that thousands of middling amateur athletes can relate to\, even if they refuse to admit it publicly. \n\nFresh from their chart-topping podcast\, The Grade Cricketer\, the trio are now taking their wares to the live stage. Join them as they attempt to hold a mirror to that dark\, inescapable intangible that binds us all: Australian Cricket Culture. \n‘The Grade Cricketer has taken us so far inside a district club dressing room that you feel like a locker. Ligaments could not be closer to the bone than some of his observations.’ Kerry O’Keeffe – Commentator and former Australian Test Cricketer \n‘The beauty of The Grade Cricketer is he is more than a grade cricketer — he is every cricketer\, from the park to the SCG. His insights into the game make people laugh mostly because they reflect every cricketer’s unspoken convictions. We all live vicariously through him\, as he does us.’ Ed Cowan – Former Australian Test Cricketer \n‘The Grade Cricketer is strange and\, I suspect\, brilliant’. Wisden \n“Does anybody listen to this?” Brendon Julian\, former Australian Test Cricketer \nPodcast will be on the evening of Day 1 of the Cricket Test between Australia and Sri Lanka. \n\nTickets are $40 Standard and $60 for VIP which includes seat in the front two rows\, and exclusive post show meet and greet Q&A. \nGrab your tickets HERE \n  \nIf you don’t know this podcast\, then you are missing out.  You can go HERE to get it\, or maybe use this up and coming tool called “Google”
