Last ever one. Sorry to see it go

Not long now. Can't wait for this. I've even booked the day off work for it.

This gig was a superb night. All the acts were brilliant, and it had a really nice crowd. ---------- Post added 31-05-2013 at 23:26 ---------- Ps. Thanks to everyone who came.

Can't wait for this. The last gong show was packed and it was a really good night.

Will be there. We've seen Tony Basnett MC the gig before and he's been amazing.

We'd first of all like to thank the massive audience who made last months event such an amazing night. This month has a lot to live up to but we've got some cracking acts lined up for the 28th of Feb and might be able to even surpass last months success. We have Steve Bugeja, Steve Linton, Dan Bland, Jonathon Greatex, Daniel Kenndy and the sublime Pete Otway. Since starting to perform in 2010, Pete Otway has quickly gained momentum, establishing himself as an extremely strong new act. As comfortable and confident as an MC as he is an act, he is booked regularly to do both. "Devastatingly funny" - Steve Bennett, Chortle Bar Abbey, Abbeydale Road. £4. 8:00 start.

Quite a few people I know are really keen to go so looks like it will be a busy night.

This January we have the Laughing Horse New Act of the Year heat at Bar Abbey. You vote for your favourite act of the night and send them through to the bright lights of London!

First of all, a big thank you to all who turned up to the last gig with Craig Murray. The night was excellent and we're delighted that so many of you could come to enjoy it. Any old regulars to Abbcom will recognise the name Gareth Urwin, the resident compere who's recently had some time off. We are pleased to say that Gareth is returning this month.
