Hey kids, I’m preparing Thanksgiving dinner, but I’m taking this break to let you know how thankful I am that you read this shit. Especially since, apparently, i’m ‘harsh’, to quote some club booker in London who no longer books me. I thought only the Comedy Cafe avoided my calls, but now I know this […]

Re-reading my November column makes me homesick for America

As did the presidential election. I agree with those who chose Obama – let’s give the black guy a chance to fuck it up for a change. But then came his uninspiring acceptance speech, the most seamless, unconvincing diatribe about freedom ever delivered from behind several 10″ by 15″ sections of plexiglass. My expectations were […]

I was wrong. Here’s one more, from Three Weeks. One more FIVE STAR REVIEW that is. I know. I guess I’m now officially the mayor. Or just a very needy comic. Or your average gay, with a huge ego and low self esteem. And I’m owning/celebrating that.

Scott Capurro Goes Deeper Underbelly Productions Outstanding, outrageous, and oh so very, very funny. Capurro is completely unrestrained, and is so far beyond offensive, that he almost isn’t. Expect extreme blasphemy, throwaway attacks of strong language, all topics of taboo positively annihilated, material which is delivered with ease, excitement and a strange kind of innocence. […]

Heya, here’s perhaps the final review for this year’s Edinburgh run of Scott Capurro Goes Deeper. It’s a great review, I’m glad Jay liked my show, which I love performing, but I won’t miss the stress of friends emailing me reviews anymore. It’s too too tense-making.

Wait a minute…is that ANOTHER 5 STAR REVIEW??? Gosh, I don’t know what to say. I’d like to thank all the little people who’ve made my clothing so I can feel so confident whilst barking about dwarf hookers to an unsuspecting crowd of inbred ginger cunts.

I’d like to post the review here, but it’s only a PDF on line, so I can’t copy it, blah blah blah…Don’t judge the Scottish. They’re trying. But the main quotes are: “Unbelievable, unstoppable and most definitely, unmissable!…An outstanding soliloquy of vitriol that challenges every belief system you hold dear…Scott isn’t just a cutting edge […]

This just in from the Guardian. I can’t BELIEVE he was there the night of the crazy cunting Dutch girl, but there you go. That’s the beauty of live performance. Anything can happen, and if you’re lucky, you might see a tall homo grab a pale bitch by the arm and throw her out. HOT!

Show type: Edinburgh Fringe 2008 Scott Capurro Goes Deeper Description Review Comments Show Rating: 5 STARS Scott Capurro has been positively goading people to walk out of his shows – and, true enough, they’ve been leaving in their droves. It begs the question why; he’s been doing this bitter, brutally odious humour from the viewpoint […]
