Gavin Webster – Bill Hicks Wasn’t Very Good - One4Review
****
No one could ever accuse Gavin Webster of not creating an impression. Whether with it is with his somewhat controversial show title or even his imposing stage presence it is a brave person to ignore him. Also a foolish person because then they would be the ones to miss out.
Geordie Webster claims to be a bitter person and he is happy to be. He gives reference to last years show, has a go at some of the affected comics of TV fame, in fact he does have a go at a lot of things and people. But he does it in a funny way and garners many laughs and a bit of back chat along the way.
He has many targets older people, Elvis, Royals, Gary Barlow and yes even Hicks a little, but he is such an engaging personality on stage it is impossible not to laugh out loud.
Webster is a man you would want on your side if push came to shove and I am pleased to say I felt I could go with him on most of his stuff, ‘cause I wouldn’t want to upset Kenny Webster in any way.
