Extra Info

Andrew OメNeillメs History of Heavy Metal What is Heavy Metal? What does it taste like? Does it hurt? Andrew O'Neill answers all the questions you were afraid to ask the big hairy men in that pub you've always avoided. Whether you're a committed headbanger or the type of person that wouldn't know Napalm Death if they were squatting your garden shed, this show is hugely funny and massively entertaining. Combining standup comedy with live music played on his customised Flying V guitar, O'Neill paints a picture of a subculture and history that has rocked the world. Andrew O'Neill has been performing standup comedy around the world for over a decade. He has appeared on TV in Never Mind The Buzzcocks and Steve Coogan's progrock sitcom Saxondale, he's hosted the Metal Hammer Golden Gods award ceremony with Alice Cooper, played Download, Sonsisphere, Bloodstock and Leeds and Reading and his lifetime of headbanging has left a neck so thick he can't buy shirts that fit him. Even heads that do not bang will hugely enjoy this Heavy Metal 101 by one of the world's most original and consistently hilarious standup comedians. ムComedic brillianceメ Time Out "Absolutely hilarious" Neil Gaiman "Andrew O'Neill is like comedy balllightning. Fast, electrifying and even funnier than the misfortunes of others" Alan Moore
