Went to see Tim Minchin live on Friday at the Hammersmith Apollo ('Ready for this?' Tour)

A brilliant performance, he's an amazing pianist and very funny live!

Youtube have a load of his old songs which are worth a look.

Great entertainment and clever wit, there's a fair bit of religion bashing and bad language so most NSFW!

I just missed out on seeing him in Bristol recently and was very miffed about that. He is very funny. A lot like Bill Bailey in that it is intelligent humour with very good musical skills too.

He was on Jonathan Woss on Friday night. Very clever and far more funny than I was expecting him to be.

What was it that actually confused you about missing him?

Saw him in Cambridge a few weeks back. Very funny, particularly the song about the first reviewer of his show.

Top man.

I wasn't confused, I was annoyed that I was unable to get to see him. Do you not use "miffed" to mean annoyed? I admit that it is quite possible that I am going crazy, but I have always used that meaning of the word as has everyone else I know (atleast I thought they did). silly

hehe

I saw him in Stoke. It was a brilliant performance.

The dancing bear song was a highlight, as was the "9 1/2 minute beat poem" about the fit hippy with the big boobs.
