Robin Ince - MELONS: A Love Letter to Stand Up Comedy

Robin’s first solo show was a disaster, but a disaster that ended with him punching a melon with Vernon Kay’s face drawn on it before singing Mustang Sally (still no cruise ship bookings).

Despite this, actually, because of this, Robin ended up playing to arenas with Professor Brian Cox.

This is the story of how he fell in love with comedy thanks to The Goodies and Rik Mayall and how after 30 years he started to find his voice.
