Media
[edit]Manchester Evening News, "For every clued up crowd Lynam plays there's an unsuspecting, comedy-virgin audience to shock even more."[9]
British Comedy Guide, "In the very early days of circuit, many alternative comedians truly lived up to their title. Take Chris Lynam, an anarchic clown whose act finished quite literally with a bang - he would place a firework up his backside and light the fuse."[3]
The New York Times, "A brilliantly bizarre antidote to today's truculent society."[5]
