For Close Shave 4, I've focused more on treat and less on tricks. Unlike previous Movember benefit shows, I want to celebrate Halloween with everyone (partying, dancing, and karaoke) but I am still looking forward to the show portion!

Dandies Spotlight: Garrett Jamieson

Garrett's sense of humour isn't negative or malicious -- he is wonderfully irreverent, almost daring the audience to stop him from making dirty jokes. Garrett has supported The Dandies from the beginning. Here is a world-class stand-up comedian -- he literally travels the world (with heavy [...]
