It then explores practical design considerations, including space optimization techniques and the integration of smart home technology.

Stand-up Comedy - The Art and...

Sophie Henner

Understanding your comedy style is a crucial aspect of developing as a stand-up comedian. It begins with analyzing the content you're drawn to, whether it's observational humor, personal anecdotes, social commentary, or absurdist concepts. Your delivery style is equally important - are you naturally deadpan, high-energy, conversational, or theatrical? 
  
Consider the persona you present on stage. This could be an exaggerated version of yourself, a completely different character, or simply your authentic self. Your writing style also plays a key role - do you prefer snappy one-liners, elaborate stories, or a mix of both? 
  
Identifying comedians who influence you can provide insights into your own style. Pay attention to which parts of your set get the strongest reactions from the audience, as this can highlight your strengths. Note the topics or styles that feel most natural to you, but also be open to experimenting with different approaches.

Live Forever: The Rise Fall and...

John Robb

The finest book on Britain's most popular rock 'n' roll band'Read on … It's all true' Noel Gallagher
Featuring an exclusive interview with Noel Gallagher and bespoke artwork by celebrated Oasis album designer Brian Cannon
Think Oasis was just Britpop and brawls?
Think again.
John Robb was there every step of the way. In this, the definitive book on Britain’s biggest band, he peels back the layers of Manchester’s best-known musical export, revealing a tale of ambition, ego, talent and a whole lot of attitude. From the estates of South Manchester to the dizzying heights of global stardom, Live Forever is a rollercoaster ride through the Gallagher brothers’ turbulent lives and the music that defined a generation. But it is also a portrait of Britain around the turn of the millennium and the cultural forces and places that shaped, and were shaped by, two cocksure upstarts from Burnage – from art to fashion, and from football to politics.
Playful, funny and irreverent, and drawing on dozens of interviews and first-hand stories, this book puts Oasis squarely in the pantheon of music royalty as the last great rock ’n’ roll stars.
John Robb's Live Forever is a Sunday Times bestselling book that takes readers on a journey through the history of Oasis. This biography, a top pick in non-fiction, explores the styles and influences that shaped the band, making it a must-read for fans of music history.
For fans of Simon Spence (All or Nothing), Legs Mcneil (I Slept With Joey Ramone), Steven Blush (Hard-Core), Lol Tolhurst (Cured), and Nige Tassell (Searching for Dexys Midnight Runners).
