In 2004 he won the Raw Comedy Competition, and as a result he went across to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and entered the UK's top comedy competition "So You Think You're Funny". Amazingly he took on the best the UK had to offer and went on to become the national champion of that event as well. This resulted in a unique double for Nick winning both Australian and UK's top comedy competitions in the same year — a feat not before achieved. Nick comes back to Newcastle every couple of months and our only guarantee is you never quite know what's coming next! Jacques Barratt

Jimbo has been performing comedy in a variety of forms from G rated to R rated since 1990.
His current stand-up style (which has been road-tested for years in outback pubs) is unapologetically raw, uncensored, risky, outrageous, rude, interactive, confronting and uniquely Australian. Jimbo has been banned from most comedy rooms located in the capital cities of Australia, but you can still find him travelling non-stop all over Australia! Darren Sanders
