Who Am I? I'm Yvan. A.K.A. Dave, because it's hard to explain quickly to someone on stage how to pronounce my first name. You'll see me around some comedy gigs every few days. I'll be doing giveaways through the Facebook and Twitter pages up to, and during the festival.

I want an Encore to Vance Fontaine’s career!
I went into this show, honestly not knowing what to expect. I was greeted by a Four Piece band and one of the most impressive beards I’ve ever seen on a drummer (how he didn’t get his brushes caught, I’m not sure).
This show shows the completely improvised career of Vance Fontaine. A kiwi legend who’s done all sorts of interesting things in my life. Some of the things that appeared in the show I saw were:
- Songs about love lost with Hungarian Dancers
- Improvised trip-hop songs
- Singing about working as the sixth spice-girl
- Working in a sex hotel, as a cleaner from a reputable Auckland Carpet Cleaning Company
- Being Responsible for NZ Band Tadpole
- and a gigantic medley.
It’s clear that Greg Ellis is not someone who shies away from a good challenge. And I like that. It’s well worth taking the time to see this show, even if it’s with the intention of trying to trip up a band who could quite easily become NZ’s Next top Party Band.
I’m going to give them a respectable rating of four well-impressive sets of sideburns.
