Belgium - blue comedy

Alexander John Anthony Agnew, better known as simply Alex Agnew is a Belgian cabaretier, stand-up comedian and lead singer of Diablo Blvd. Active since 1999, he gained nation wide fame when he became the first Belgian to win the prestigious Dutch Leids cabaret Festival in 2003.
His 'rock 'n' roll' comedy ( as he himself calls it), a mix of blue comedy and the production of soundseffects, (much like the Dutch Morrocan Najib Amhali) gained him succes in Belgium and the Netherlands. Influences include Bill Cosby, action movies, comic books and a great variety of music, ranging from musicals to heavy metal. In 2013 he retired from stand-up comedy to focus his attention on his music carreer, but not before performing for 55.000 people in his last show 'The Legend ends'.
