Friendlyjordies Is Going On Tour

Friendlyjordies is everybody’s favourite homegrown YouTube comedian, and if you fall in the 18-25 age bracket, he’s also very likely the reason for why you voted the way you did and the only reason you know anything about politics.

He’s also pretty good at skewering the music world and has turned his incisive gaze towards the likes of Stereosonic punters, Falls Festival punters, Mike Baird and NSW’s lockout laws, and most recently, triple j listeners.

Now, he’s taking his comedic stylings on the road. Kicking off with two Sydney shows at the Giant Dwarf Theatre, Friendlyjordies, aka Jordan Shanks, is taking his new stage show, Chin up, Stooge, around the country.

“After reading over 300 self help books, Jordan Shanks (Friendlyjordies) has condensed the best from hundreds of authors who have already condensed the wisdom of thousands of years of thought and research on personal development,” a synopsis reads.

“He’s crammed it all into a one hour show, with sides of paying out hipsters and Coffs Harbour…So not nearly enough time to cover everything, but LOOK! You’ll get something valuable out of it, alright? What do you care?”

In a Facebook post, the comedian promised he’d be taking the show around the nation soon: “So if you’re not from Sydney don’t worry! You’ll get the dregs! Like when the Easter Show rocks up to Toowoomba 3 months later and all that’s left are a couple of Sumo bags and the crustiest carnies imaginable.”
