Top man Niall
The other night I was booked to compere a banquet at the Stadium of Light, on the eve of the Sunderland Middlesbrough match. It was a quality line up and a great evening. My job was to perform my stage set of comedy and magic, and then to interview the players and ex-players of Sunderland and Middlesbrough. Oh yes, this is why I got out of real work.
Usually, and you may have noticed, I don’t make a special reference about famous people in my blog; hey, we are all equal, just because you are on TV doesn’t make you any different. I don’t bother to put photos of celebrities on my blog. The reason I don’t, is, I am not sure what it says about me as a person. Am I wanting to have fame by association? Am I somehow a better entertainer because celebrities book me for their functions? They are rhetorical questions by the way, but feel free to have a guess.
Well when the celebrity is a really great human being like Niall Quinn I feel honoured to have spent time in his company, hence the photo above (even if I do look like Niall’s ventriloquist dummy).
