In Australia alone he has performed on Rove Live, The Glass House, Thank God You're Here, The Footy Show and Good News Week. Eddie had a sell-out run at this year's Melbourne Comedy Festival, wowed at the Sydney Comedy Festival with time for only 2 shows and headlined the Best of Edinburgh in Adelaide.

The Comedy Store welcomes him back after a brief visit during Sydney Comedy Festival for a 2 week show run in Sydney from 1st - 12th September 2009. Eddie will preview his 2010 Melbourne Comedy Festival Show "I shouldn't have said that", which deals with tales of Eddie putting his foot in his mouth.

AMERICA'S MOST WANTED!

TONY WOODS IS BACK AT THE COMEDY STORE

Tony Woods has a unique and argumentative style of comedy that rings true with thousands of fans worldwide. As one of America's most wanted comedians (and yes that applies to the law as well) he has a strong following in the US, UK, Australia and even Holland despite the fact that he has not updated his MySpace page since Jan 2008! Born in North Carolina and raised in the D.C. area, Woods kicked off his career on HBO's Def Comedy Jam and is credited as the inspiration for David Chappelle. "Yeah there is some truth to that, but he is not the only one, a lot of other comedians have adapted my style, he just happens to be the richest and is the most well knowna household name. God bless them all." Laughs Tony.

Blues music and comedy; at first sight it would seem to be a strange mix. One makes you cry, the other makes you laugh. However mixing them together is just what Comedian and Harmonica player Michael Connell is planning to do in a new comedy show. "I've been doing comedy for over eight years, and playing the Harmonica for the last four, and I've always kept my comedy and music very separate," Michael explains. "However, recently I've begun to notice there's a lot of similarities between the Blues and Comedy. For me, they're both about taking something negative, like being poor or getting cheated on, and turning it into something positive like music or laughter."

Titled, appropriately enough, "The Blues", the show will run at The Street Theatre in mid September. As a comedian Michael h
