Australia, Victoria, Melbourne,
Hammer Hall...
8pm...
BILL BAILEY



He was amazing!! Absolutly Hilarious!
I'm still grinning from ear to ear!
He played the keyboard, acoustic guitar,electric guitar, a lute,
the theremin and at the end he even played a digeredoo,
though he kept laughing, saying it had an unusual smell to it.
 he's so cute!

One of the funniest pits was when he was talking about the theme
tunes of Australia's television new programs.
-He said that channel 10 was like a 1980's disco
-Channel 9 was really intense and had morse code in the
background that spelt out" A-R-S-E"
-(my favourite) was ABC theme, which he said sounded like interpretive
dance music. He then picked up two gymnastics ribbons and started dancing
around the stage with them as the theme played! You can hear it HERE
I'll never be able to listen to it in the same way again.

HERE you can see him doing his Purple Haze joke, from the night I went to.
I was sitting in row S on the floor, to the right of the center of the stage.
Not as close as when I saw Dylan Moran (5 rows from the stage) and
i could smell his cigarette smoke,

On the downside, my feet are covered in blisters, because we went out to
dinner beforehand, and walked around for a bit.... I was wearing a new pair
of shoes.... things didn't end well. But if i have to get blisters to see Bill Bailey,
then i'll damn well get blisters!!!

P.S - That's two people from Black Books off the list
Dylan Moran (2006)
Bill Bailey (2008)
Lets see how many more i can cross off
