PICK HIT OF THE WEEK BY BOTH THE HERALD AND THE SCOTSMAN!

The night starts off at 8pm with music and comedy featuring Lach and some of Edinburgh's top comics and musicians with a different special guest each week presented in the style of an old time radio show. The evening will be recorded live for future podcast by Dabster Productions who have had numerous top ten comedy podcasts on iTunes and series commissioned for both BBC Radio 4 and BBC Radio Scotland . The weekly cast features local comedy heroes including Garry Dobson, Keir McAllister, Chris Cooper plus Annabel and more.

For the first part of the evening just think The Jack Benny Show (ask yr grandparents, kids!) meets The David Letterman Show (ask an American, mates!). This is a half-hour partly scripted, partly improvised extravaganza done in the old time radio format.

Then, after a short smoke break, Lach and his special guest will return to each do a full set of material during the second half of the evening. The night closes with Henry's Cellar Dive Bar Band featuring Brendan O'Hare of Teenage Fanclub and Mogwai, Ed Ritchie of Dog on a Swing and Lach.
