DOH!

I've got to wait until December, and the dubious pleasures of Birmingham (UK) before I get to see him.

I do hope he's pulled his socks up since "Circle" which I found crushingly disappointing.

I believe one part of his act is to perform in the native tongue of the country he is in, does this mean he will do this show entirely in Convict Slang

I am sure there'll be plenty of "strewth, far out, fair'd income, champion, sport" and such in his set.

About six years ago I saw him do a gig in New York, where there were only 200 people in the audience (190 being Brits). He was brilliant, PMSL all night.

Enjoy

Saw him when I was a tax dodging student, absolutely fantastic.
I wonder if he still does 'the monkey is in the tree'

Richie,

What I think you mean to say is "Le sange et un l'arbe"

Damn, got to put up with birmingham

I saw him in 2000 in new york, was at the show where the sound went bonkers half way through. Fantastic show, really looking forward to birmingham though (never thought I'd say that!)

"Le sange et un l'arbe"
The monkey is a branch?!

I believe there should be a "sur" in there somewhere

Surreal - Even for Eddie!

Does sur not mean on as opposed to in?

pretty sure it was "la sange est dan l'arbre, le chat et sous la chaise et la souris et sur le table"

At certain points "la sange et sur la branche", but never on the tree

Of course, none of these phrases are any good unless you have a monkey, tree, cat, mouse table and chair to hand.

Which video was it on?

There are soooooo many sections of his shows that I like, I just can't pick the best!

Fortunately on the seating plan, we aren't too far away and certainly haven't been tucked away in a corner.
