    I always enjoyed Bill on Never Mind The Buzzcocks but this was the first time I had seen him on his own. Absolutely priceless. So funny and entertaining. And such a musso. What other comic can incorporate two theremins, a Gibson Flying V and a cracking remix of the BBC News sig tune into a stand up routine and never miss a beat. I'm now your number one fan Bill.

    Saw this a couple of years ago. You're right, Bill Bailey is a genius. Very talented, both comedically and musically (look at all the instruments he plays! :eek:).

    I don't think I've been able to take U2 and The Edge, in particular, seriously anymore after seeing Part Troll. Those who have seen it will know exactly what I'm talking about! ;):D

    I don't think anyone has been able to take Bono seriously, even if they didn't see Bill Bailey.

    I might also add that he doesn't seem to need much profanity to get his point across. +1

    Bill is notable, not only for possessing perfect pitch, and his surreal humour, but also for never resorting to profanity to get his point across.

    Who else can make spider jokes out of nothing?
