				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>All of a sudden we only have three months to go and then it&#8217;s time once again for the greatest comedy festival in the world (<a href="http://www.edfringe.com/whats-on/comedy/colour-ham" target="_blank">get your tickets here</a>). As each day goes passed we&#8217;re getting that wee bit more excited about taking to the stage once again at the Fringe. The show is really beginning to take shape. We&#8217;ve pretty much decided on the sketches and we&#8217;re now at the tweaking stage, deciding on the wording of the script, the order of the sketches and making sure the magic and mind reading bits are all just as we imagined them!! Gav of course is working on his costumes&#8230;</p>
<p>We&#8217;ve all been extremely busy recently out with The Colour Ham. Kev launched the <a title="Edinburgh international magic festival magicfest" href="http://www.magicfest.co.uk" target="_blank">Edinburgh Magic Festival</a>, won Edinburgh Magic Circle Magic Competition and was the first magician ever to perform at the <a title="magicfest globe" href="http://www.magicfest.co.uk/index.php/blog/115-magicfest-at-the-globe-london" target="_blank">Globe Theatre in London</a>. Both Colin and Gav have been speaking and performing all over the country. This includes them both doing their first ever <a href="http://www.ted.com/tedx/events/7095" target="_blank">TED talks</a>!</p>
<p>So with three months to go we still have a lot of work to do. We&#8217;re rehearsing twice a week at the moment and making the most of the little time we have together.</p>
<p>We cannot wait to show you all what we&#8217;ve been working on. It&#8217;s definitely been the difficult second album but we feel this years show will top last years.</p>
<p>Our tickets sales have been unbelievable already and it gives us a huge lift to think people have already made us a priority on their fringe hit list.</p>
<p>Speak soon peoples!!<br />
Much love<br />
The Colour Ham x</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>THE COLOUR HAM ARE BACK!!</p>
<p>After many personal commitments, individual shows, wives, children, and Colin’s cats, we’re back and have been touring the country spread the Ham.</p>
<p>Having had to opportunity to headline <a href="http://www.thestand.co.uk">The Stand in Edinburgh</a> a few weeks ago, as our first time on stage together in 6 months! , last night we headed on a road trip to perform at <a href="http://www.thetrickery.co.uk/">The Trickery in Aberdeen</a> to a sell-out crowd. 50 minutes of kissing, hypnotising, human instruments, nudity and Gaelic later the audience left efficiently Hammed. We had an absolute ball.</p>
<p>It’s bizarre at the moment performing and almost saying ‘bye’ to our ‘older’ material (or at least, putting into storage until the TV show) and also having to rely now more on our new material. It’s taking us right out of our comfort zone but it’s exciting. It’s not as scary as when we first started out because in the beginning &#8211; we&#8217;re much more comfortable on stage together.</p>
<p>Now though, we have a better understanding of our characters and how they interact, which is half the battle, so it does make getting to grips with the new material much easier and more enjoyable.</p>
<p>So&#8230; What&#8217;s in store? The new material already plans to have MUCH more mind blowing Magic and Mentalism, lots more craziness and ultimately, we already feel, become an even stronger show than our first one. With the Edinburgh Festival only 4 months away (and before that we have The Edinburgh Magic Festival and Svetlana and Kev are expecting their first child!!) we’re going to be busy. But the fact we have the show (just about) written, we now just need to perfect it. And we will.</p>
<p>This weekend you can see us with your eyes (or in Braille) at Enterteasment in Glasgow. We’ve been asked to close a fantastic night of comedy, burlesque and magic with our unique brand of crazed-awesomeness! So get along …<a href="http://www.Enterteasement.co.uk"> www.Enterteasement.co.uk</a><br />
Love to you all,<br />
Col.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Massive thank you to the Stand Comedy Club in Edinburgh for our first ever headline slot at this wonderful institution. We&#8217;re delighted to have appeared on stage after the BBC had finished filming a pre recorded radio broadcast with many top UK comics. I must admit it was a bit nerve racking coming on stage after after such big name stars, especially as our style was a real shift from what had come before! Fortunately the audience really appreciated the dose of spaz delivered before them.</p>
<p>Delighted to announce that we have been invited back to The Stand and we look forward to performing there over the coming months. To find out about our up and coming shows please follow us on twitter and facebook by following the links below.</p>
