About Me:
His delivery is upfront and riotous, calculated to whip an audience into frenzy. Dave feeds on laughter and shock, firing back killer material, sharp adlibs and strange, unpredictable and hilarious tangents. It would be a mistake, however, to think of Dave as some sour, twisted and unforgiving monster. Dave can be at his absolute best when his well-hidden tender side unexpectedly shines through, or when his inner child looks out to see what all the noise is about.
Taking in a broad spectrum of topics, Dave can discuss anything from Sesame Street to Afghanistan without breaking a sweat, as well as veering swiftly from the globally relevant to the nakedly confessional. Dave can take an audience to the brink of being morbidly offended then haul them back from the precipice with a killer punchline.
Having gigged all over the country, supported American legends Doug Stanhope & Joe Rogan and with much more to come, you can expect to see Dave leaving a trail of hangovers, broken homes, empty pints and adoring audiences somewhere near you in the near future.

Press:
"Has been described as the star of the new generation emerging on Manchester's comedy scene and I would agree with that without hesitation. My only advice is this: catch this barrel of laughs in Manchester before his sell-out nationwide gig tickets are gold dust! " Student Direct
"Angry and caustic comedy from a respected stand-up" Leeds Guide
"Bishop's aggression with a grin style had the Depot rocking." - Lancashire Evening Telegraph
"One of the funniest comedians I've ever seen" Smooth FM
Influences:
Comedians like Bill Hicks, Doug Stanhope, Joe Rogan, Ian Cognito (who in any other country would be a star), Jerry Sadowitz, Richard Pryor - and a whole other bunch of guys you'll never hear of because comedy bookers are too retarded to know where the future lies.
