Dressed To Joke

Coming to the stage looking like the love-child of Chuck Norris and Slash from Guns 'n' Roses, Xander Allen certainly makes an impression even before he has opened his mouth.
His free show at The Imperial Hotel, 'Glam', is a non-stop 30 minutes of relentless stream-of-consciousness stand-up which will have you laughing hard and forgetting that rubbish day at work you just had.
On the night I attended there were noticeably quite a few comedians in the audience, which to me is certainly an indication of quality of humour. Xander's act covers his unusual appearance, his drunken exploits and his realisation that his target audience may be dentally challenged. All delivered with a pint of beer in one hand and a mike in the other.
Although it's a free show (gold coin donation on exit if you feel inclined), I've paid far more for shows far less enjoyable. Highly recommended.
