Dave Gorman

Dave Gorman is an author, documentary comedian, photographer, and humorist. He is most famous for comedy shows on stage and TV in which he tells stories of extreme adventures and presents the evidence to the audience in order to prove to them that, unlike in most other stage presentations, they are true stories. He is a former stand-up comedian. He hosts a BBC Radio 4 show called Genius, in which members of the public submit suggestions to make a better world. Gorman and a guest then assess the idea in order to determine whether it qualifies as "genius".

Claytown Troupe

CLAYTOWN TROUPE - In the late 80’s they were the only real alternative to The Cult, more anthemic and authentic than Astbury & Co’s rawk;
Claytown Troupe were an Alt-Rock act touted as the next big band after The Cult’s fake rock and the authentic crusty rock of Pop Will Eat Itself & Crazyhead.
Moving a few hundred thousand units internationally over their short period in the limelight, they broke into the UK charts before sadly disappearing in 1992 after touring with Pearl Jam.
