Loving the second book Frank!,
By Brummie Boy "Baz" (Birmingham) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Frank Skinner on the Road: Love, Stand-up Comedy and The Queen Of The Night (Hardcover)
I read Frank's autobiography last year and loved it so was excited to find out he had a second one coming out. Really interesting read, following him on tour, and finding out about how he makes people (including me!)laugh. I've got the new DVD too which he talks about in this book! Both ace!

Review of the sample only - interesting and very funny in places,
By Andrew Ives (Atur, France) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Frank Skinner on the Road: Love, Stand-up Comedy and the Queen of the Night (Kindle Edition)
As the whole book is rather expensive and I'm a bit skint at the moment, I thought I'd try just the sample. I generally like Frank Skinner's programmes and the book was much as I had expected. Frank's flippancy starts to annoy me slightly on telly, but in this book he is more candid and sounds genuinely like a thinking man, working hard to improve his art and material. There were a few laugh out loud moments, but in general, it's the thread of the story, the experience of being on the road that keeps you reading. I enjoyed it.

Brilliant book, every stand-up or joke writer should read.,
This review is from: Frank Skinner on the Road: Love, Stand-up Comedy and The Queen Of The Night (Paperback)
I teach joke writing and I always recommend this book to my students because it gives such a good idea of how an act is built. I love it that Skinner gets to the town he's gigging in early, looks at their local paper, and works on jokes. So many people think stand-up comedy is just `making it up'. Skinner shows what it's really like in a way that won't put anyone off doing comedy but might inspire them onward. It's not only hilariously honest (yes, blokey, but real, with heart underneath) but It's a lovely read too.
