A Bunch of C*****

My close, personal, showbiz, celebrity friends Christopher Brookmyre & Billy Franks appeared together at The Liquid Room, Edinburgh, on 9 September 2008. Here they are dueting on a nice little number about politics & religion in the modern age. This is definitely NSFW...




Chris was reading from his latest comic crime caper "A Snowball In Hell", in which a serial killer takes out Z-list celebrities in his own horrific and horrifically funny "reality tv show" for the Youtube generation...

'Dazzling comic skills' The Times.. 'Sharply satirical and poignantly funny, this is a gripping and highly entertaining read.' Time Out.. 'Chris Brookmyre is a genius.' Mirror.. 'Brookmyre has no equal.' Maxim.. 'Achingly funny' Sunday Times.. 'Exhilerating linguistic fluency and keenly subversive intelligence' Scotland on Sunday


Meanwhile Billy, playing his first gig in Scotland in 20 years, talked about songwriting and his new multiple-award winning indie film "Tribute This". Here's the trailer for your delectation.



Interesting factoid: Chris Brookmyre is the first president of the Humanist Society, Scotland. Trippy or what? I'm not sure I hold with "Humanism" as a movement. I don't need a bunch of effete french intellectuals telling me what to think... ;>
