AL Kennedy

It's either crassness or jealousy that the Independent's Edinburgh Fringe reviewer gave AL Kennedy's stand-up performance (Indie 08/08/06- not available online) at the Fringe only two stars. The reviewer's problem that he expected to be entertained- it was advertised as comedy, right? What a dumb fuck. I think he (and I've just checked- it is a he- surprise, surprise) fails to start to appreciate her originality and failure to conform.
