Put a suit on man!
First 45 minutes were pure auto-pilot. They're his cliches and he can milk them all he likes, but it felt like a substitute for material here. Then there was some stuff about Sky and Russell Howard, and I was proper into it.
I'm wondering whether a portion of the audience actually like the "this gig is a real struggle for me because of you" or "I could do real jokes if I wanted to" shtick. I'm totally bored by it - and only partly because I don't think its true. But maybe for some people it's like a band doing their greatest hits or something, and that's what they came to see. Ok, but it seems to be dominating the show.
2nd half much better, and the last 30 minutes of mad ranting was great. No new (stylistic or otherwise) territory explored though, and at this point you could invent a drinking game around his tropes and need help getting home by the end of the show.
The thing I laughed the loudest at: the washing the daughter line, straight outta the working mens club. What am I like?
