Internet sensation Gary Meikle brings his new tour to strath

Viral internet sensation Gary Meikle will be telling all about his Neurospicy life in a night of comedy in the strath.

Last year Glaswegian Gary Meikle found out something that meant that a lot of his life to date suddenly - sort of - made sense.

He was diagnosed as neurodivergent on January 23, last year 2024.

It was news, he says, that surprised him but very few of the people who share his life.

In his new 2025 tour show, Gary looks at how his ‘neurospicy’ diagnosis explains so much about his life, what the world looks like to his delusional eyes, and how he has managed to make it this far through a life of total confusion.

Gary became an international internet sensation in 2018 when his video rant about his daughter’s eyebrows went viral.

The video has been shared globally with many fans adding their own subtitles. Gary’s videos have been viewed millions of times around the world.

The Boat of Garten Community Hall gig is part of Gary’s extensive 2025 UK tour which runs from February until November and is one of a string of Scottish dates being promoted by Aberdeen-based Breakneck Comedy.

Breakneck Comedy’s founder, Naz Hussain said, “I’m delighted to be working with Gary on some of his new tour dates.

“I’ve been a huge fan of his since he started out and we’ve worked together on several of his tours.

“It’s been amazing to see him go from doing short spots to, to being ‘the eyebrow guy’ to touring the world.

“As his fans know, Gary tells hilarious stories about his life, and this new show is no exception, as he shares stories about his ADHD diagnosis, what that means for him, and some of the misadventures and misunderstandings that have some about as a result of him being blissfully unaware that he was ‘neurospicy’.”

Breakneck Comedy is renowned for bringing top comedians and performers to towns and venues that might not be on the usual tour schedule.

“I love bringing big names to towns that some promoters might overlook,” explained Naz. “It’s really exciting to be able to put on shows all over Scotland and make it easier for people to be able to enjoy a great night of comedy and entertainment without them having to worry about catching a train home from the city.”

As well as extensive UK tours, Gary has toured in America, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand.

He is the first ever Scottish comedian who’s never been on TV to be granted a visa to perform in the States.

Gary Meikle: Neurospicy is at Boat of Garten Community Hall on Saturday 22 February.
