Tyan Booth - Stand up comedy

Post by rhino222 »

I found a couple of bits of Tyan Booth masquerading as 'Benjamin Booth' doing some stand up comedy from 2011-12







I like his humour, but he is not everyones cup of tea. I liked his work with IFLTV.

Some of his videos cracked me up, definitely my kind of humour. I’d like to see him do Live at the Apollo next.

I also own a comedy club.
In the clips here he is typical of what is known as an ‘open spot’. These are acts who are given unpaid ten minute slots to fill the middle of a proper show but are not proficient or funny enough for paid 20 minute slots yet.

One of my many retirements from boxing was expected to kill me and I’d always wanted to open a comedy club so thought I’d better hurry. Before that I used to go to see a lot of stand up but had to travel an hour north or south for a decent club.
Opened in 2014.

It’s called ROFL Comedy Club, it’s in Stoke On Trent. Have a mix of established acts, up and comers and tv names. It’s only a modest wee place.

He's awful there.

Pretty good in the youtube vids he makes himself though. Maybe I just like it because it's boxing related.

His youtube videos intreagued me a little, quite an unusual guy.

I dont rate his stand up much, not in these videos anyway. I can tell he has something, but its off center by quite a long way and i doubt he would ever get it on track enough for me to like it.

Reminds me of Karl Pilkington for some reason and that's without watching any of those videos.

Very few comedians do more than a passing comment on anything political

People are laughing so he must be funny, but I can’t see how. I used to fancy a sideline in standup but decided that I wasn’t funny enough.

Those videos make me reconsider.
