INTERVIEW - Liam Mullone

Monday, August 18th, 2008

In a Dead Man’s Hat
Gilded Balloom Teviot

Image for Liam Mullone interview Liam came to tell us about his show last week…unfortunately he wasn't overly happy, and at one point I was convinced he wanted to end it all. After a silly start, I had a nice chat with him. He's got a really unique and interesting story to tell of a time when he went to America and was mugged by a stripper. He was a really lovely guy and spoke to Tallah about porn amongst other things…..If you see him in the street or out and about, give him a hug and DO NOT stick a biro in his eye. Listen to find out more….

Words of advice…don't talk to strippers, and if you're going to review Liam's show, be nice about it.
