We booked Tyrone Burston through gig salad a few week ago for a family dinner. He was very professional. It was an open fast line of communication between us. He arrived on time and ready to perform. He was hilarious. The crowd loved him. Burston with Comedy is highly recommended and we will definitely book him again.
