Neil Price – Original Review
Note: This review is from 2008
Review by Steve Bennett
Son of a preacher man Neil Price is an audience favourite on the open mic circuit, and with plenty of justification. He deals in good, solid jokes, artfully linked together and so tight you’re never far from a punchline.Some of the gags are, admittedly, corny and obvious, but he sells them with such a likeable conviction that he’s easily forgiven. And even when the starting point is obvious, Price pushes so hard at a subject, and from a slightly obtuse angle, that you’re compelled to hear where he’s taking it.
Although Price is a relative newcomer, it’s easy to see him becoming a reliable circuit act within the near future.
