Thus the world renown comedic mastermind Bill Bailey brought his tour de HAHAHAHA down to Australia and New Zealand.

The show began with an tasteful clip on evolution and progressed until the one and only advanced onto stage verily confusing my ex who I decided to take along. Before long the show swung into action with jabs at the crowd and loud Perthians inquiring as to why Chris de Burgh hadn't been slagged off yet. Bill told us that since that would be talking about Devolution and the show was about evolution we had to ignore it. We even got him to laugh, despite himself, when he showed the crowd a picture of the Taj Mahal and one lady who had been there said "well...it's nice..." to which he rebuked "One of the seven wonders of the world and all you have to say about it is....it's nice...*snigger*". Moving on to one of the more important aspects of the show. Musicality.

The great one played unto us the Imperial March is ska which was my exs favourite part she was still confused though =P. Enlightened us as to how strange our news themes really are. Remixed George Bush talking about the wetlands. Played pop songs to us and looked to far into their meaning and lyrics so that they broke. He played something on his electric bouzouki but I can't recall it to well unfortunately.

In closing for those on TL who have yet to see this modern troll who engages in the act of comedy upon the stage I highly recommend that you do so!

He is a pretty damn funny guy. He's always good on Nevermind The Buzzcocks and QI.

Bill Bailey is my personal hero. Fucking hilariousssssssssssss but he doesn't resort (like most other comedians) to controversial jokes about "isms" (racism, sexism, all that stuff on the line between PC and non-PC).

I went to see him in London last month and his act that you described sounds similar to the one I saw. Did he do his remixed Imperial March with organ / choir boy music? That had me in stitches... as well as his Jazz remix of the British national anthem.

To share the love.....:



Genius.

The first time I saw him was in 'Black Books'. As someone's already said he's also great on comedy shows.

By the way, is anyone else having trouble playing embedded youtube videos?
No I'm never serious.

Yes he did do the Jazz national anthem. The remixed Imperial March was done in a Ska style. There's a solid chance it was the same show since this is Australia and we tend to get the end of a touring season for an artist if at all.

Nope, they're working fine for me.
