Comedy review: The Fix presents… Brett Domino and Steven Peavis

20 Jun

I really didn’t know what to expect from Brett Domino and Steven Peavis in their comedy act at King’s Place. My inclination was tested a little by the show starting half an hour late. Soon I found out that the humour of the act was built around the pair geekily recreating hits such as Justin Timberlake’s back catalogue or rap tunes like Jump Around by House of Pain. Brett (Rob J Madin) plays the keytar, a once popular keyboard guitar from the eighties while Steven takes on the drum machine. The act exists mainly on Youtube so the backdrop featured videos from their online presence where every now and again they diversify into some other instrument like the recorder. I was amused but I’m not sure how much further the scope of the joke can go. Once you get the picture that most of the amusement is based around their appearance and deadpan delivery you have the full picture. But enjoy for the moment!

So that you can compare to the real Justin Timberlake take a look at Like I Love You by the real JT which is a song featured in Brett’s medley.
