PAUL MCDERMOTT
Paul McDermott, a leading comic provocateur, an endless originator, a ceaseless font of wonder, a generous collaborator, an unrelentingly creative spirit and a rolled gold feckin’ legend, is returning to Melbourne Comedy Festival in 2022 to perform his next miracle, alongside a fella you don’t know.
Join the dots, follow the path people, look at the history of the man – DAAS, GNW, MOSH, The Sideshow, Triple J with Mikey Robins, GUD, Paul + Gatesy, Plus One.
I mean, f***, has there ever been anyone more consistent?
Many people don’t find the earthy musing of a rapidly-aging, self-absorbed narcissist engaging. However, if two Covid survivors (the Plague Doctor and the Meadow Lark), free associating while making sweet sickening sounds, attacking anti-vaxxers, Hillsong, social hierarchies and authoritarianism is your groove… then maybe… just maybe…

Feedback/Comments
Felt like I was there to listen to all his covid troubles, could have been done tastefully instead came across bitter and mean
Great night , love this venue. Moments that took me right back to DAAS days!!
Great voice
Had a great night with Paul, he has such a wonderful voice to listen to in song
McDermott is a one man double act, intelligent comedy and a great voice. Great venue for comedy too
There were some laughs but also a lot of hate speech.
McDermott is still in fine form. The voice of an angel and as hilarious as Satan himself.
Funniest guy ever! Great engagement with the audience! Hilarious when he went off script.
Paul McDermott is the consummate performer, he commands the room with a charm & disdain and backs it all up with great songs! A great show!
Love Paul McDermott - witty, funny, talented - beautiful voice.
Good live comedy
Very funny
In a world where Covid , anti vaxers, religion & political correctness has a tendency to silence us ‘sheeples’ …. Paul has the gutz to say what most of us are thinking, but too scared to say it.
What a fantastic team is Paul McDermott & Mick Moriarty.
We loved, Loved, LOVED the entire show & the venue . Paul & Mick provided a long awaited laugh.
Brunswick Ballroom is a venue that enables everyone to be up close to the artists, yet has a capacity to hold many.
Thankyou sooo sooo much & big thanks to It’s On The House for providing an exceptional opportunity .
Paul was on fire, so funny and fabulous, yes Pauline Hanson was the finale with her compassionate plea for freedom of choice to vax or not to vax, free to die if you want to.. its my party and I'll die if I want to (not quoting) .. hilarious great way to end week
Very funny!
