Tillerpop

Matt Tiller PBH's Free Fringe

Matt Tiller is a well-meaning guy who for some strange reason thinks he's funny and that he has the performance skills required to make people laugh. His cheap jokes, short songs and appalling delivery made me laugh out of pity; the second pint may have helped too. The most interesting part of the show was the audience participation. Tiller asked me if I had done any good deeds recently, and I foolishly mentioned that I had given money to a really crap free show. As I left, I repeated this good deed. If he had spent less time on the tacky projection and more time on his material, I might be able to say it was entertaining.
