I'm hosting a comedy night in collaboration with Ground Bar and you are all invited. (provided you buy a ticket)

This is the launch of Ground Bar's comedy nights and as things stands, it promises to be a fun filled night.


To be GROUNDED means to be confined to a specific area and to be exempt from taking part in the things you love.

So no thinking about work, no more thinking about deadlines or exams and no more sitting around getting drunk at home, as of the now - "YOU'RE GROUNDED"

As part of your grounding you need to make your way to Ground Bar for a night of comedy filled with laughs and so much more...

Hosted by Cape Town Funny man Gino Fernandez
with support from
Ambrose Uren
Matt Davis (Straight Outta the U.S of A)
and your headline act
Carl Weber

28 November 2015
7:00PM Show Starts at 8:00PM
R50 gets you in with loads of specials running throughout the evening

Limited Tickets on sale at the bar and at the door.

Feel free to share the Facebook event page.

Supporting Local Comedy

I have recently started getting very much involved with the local South African or mainly the Cape Town comedy scene and when I say involved I mean mostly as an audience member, watching shows in and around Cape Town, such as the Chilli Bar Comedy Thursday's and most recently "The Gino Fernandez What a F in Funny Show".

One of my favourite comedians which I had the priviledge of seeing perform is Carl Weber. All the way from Bloemfontein this selfconfessed “farm boy” has been honing hiscomedic skills on Cape Town comedy circuit. I first saw him perform as one of the opening acts for Pablo Francisco at the 2011 Nando's Comedy Festival and I nearly pissed myself from laughter.

A few months later I met the man after his performance at Chilli Bar Comedy Thursday's and arranged this interview and it went a little like this:

Quick 5 with Carl Weber

Versatile Lyle: "Who or what helped influence you to pursue a career in comedy?"

Carl Weber: "Mostly friends, always being the funny guy around the braai, and an incredible love to entertain people"

Versatile Lyle: "What do you prefer, Marie Biscuits or Ouma's Rusks, MensHealth or FHM, Bloemfontein or Cape Town, Helen Zille or Patricia De Lille? "

Carl Weber: "Id prefer sipping black coffee on the porch with ouma’s rusks in Bloemfontein, flapping through the latest FHM with full frontal pictorial of Helen Zille in it "

Versatile Lyle: "Can you share with us your one high point in your career that really stands out above the rest?"

Carl Weber: "It would definitely be winning cape towns next comic, then the Graca showdown and then sharing a stage with Pablo Francisco at the 2011 nandos comedy festival"   

Versatile Lyle: " You also have a radio show tell us abit about that?"

Carl Weber: "I have a radio show on a Sunday afternoon 3pm-6pm called “shootin blanks” ( I have live rounds however) its on a internet based radio station called Vibe radio SA, the show is basically a very funny comedy influenced, and completely unrehearsed stab at promoting cape town comedy and of course …… myself lol"

Versatile Lyle: "What's next for Carl Weber, anything interesting lined up that we should know of? "

Carl Weber: "Well, coming up I will know if I have been nominated for the SA comics choice award, also have a one man show in the pipeline (as soon as I get a sponsor …. Hint hint) id love my very first one man show to be called “the Carl Weber experience”

Versatile Lyle: "Lastly any messages for aspiring comedians?"

Carl Weber: "Hustle, hustle, hustle"

Versatile Lyle: "Anything else you like to add?"

Carl Weber: "Something to add?? ….. I've never been good at math, if there’s 3 things I always hated about math then its geometry and algebra!"
