Table of ContentsReviewsAn uproariously funny collection of true stories from one of the comedy greats * Bill Bailey * It's rare for comedians to be as funny on paper as they are on stage, but Rich Hall nails it. He is clearly a writer at heart, and his true tales about life on the stand-up comedy circuit are hilarious, touching, and bravely personal. I selfishly wish he had his own TV show here in the States, but this book will fill the void nicely until he does * Carl Hiaasen * I loved this book. Absolutely adored it. I devoured it and savoured every word. A wild and wonderful love letter to comedy * Adam Hills * Rich Hall is a comedic maverick with a laser eye for detail. He is as funny as he is fearless. This book is no exception... a kaleidoscopic journey through the twists and turns of his comedy and his life. * Lewis Black * So well written... Buy it right now and prepare to be amazed. * Merrill Markoe * Since 1978, Rich Hall has made me laugh with a most original and creative brand of stand-up comedy. Now the bastard has written the best comedy memoir I've ever read. I've about had it with this guy. * Ritch Shydner * Hall is good company... writing with wise-cracking, conversational ease... Will have you chuckling throughout with its amusing collection of well-spun yarns * Irish Times * Author InformationRich Hall is a multi award-winning American comedian, musician and author. In the US he wrote for David Letterman and appeared on David's show frequently as a guest. He was also a cast member and writer for Saturday Night Live, Fridays and Not Necessarily The News. In 1998, he created his alter-ego Otis Lee Crenshaw, a redneck jailbird from Tennessee, which won him a Perrier Award at Edinburgh in 2000. He moved to the UK in 2001, and has been touring the country and appearing on numerous British TV Shows since, including Have I Got News For You and QI (he once held the record for the most 'wins'.) Rich has also written and presented ten highly acclaimed documentaries for BBC Four. He lives with his wife, Karen, alternating between homes in West London and Livingston, Montana. Nailing It is his fourth book. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
