Bill Bailey is as funny as ever - at two points he had my bent over with tears coming down my face in laughter.
The Limboland show follows his usual combination of stand-up comedy interspersed with songs - the musicianship of the man is amazing, yet it is done with such ease. There were two new song-by-one-person-in-the-style-of-another, I won't say what and spoil the treat, suffice to say one was genius, but the one saved for the encore was a bit lame.
He opened with some political stuff, always a risky topic for fear of alienating the audience (particularly an Englishman discussing Scottish Independence in Scotland), but he carried it off successfully without upsetting anyone or losing the audience. He had done enough research on Aberdeen to be able to throw in a few specific jokes and phrases, always appreciated.
Bill Bailey is probably my favourite comedian, and his shows are absolutely unmissable.
