It's a shame most of his stuff was from Mock the Week (which thanks the Dave I've seen all too many times).. But it's still funny.

I'd forgotten just how funny this was. How his mind works is fascinating, bloody hilarious!

I saw him a couple of months ago in Glasgow when he was trying some stuff for his new TV show Tramadol Nights (starts next Tuesday, Channel 4).

I'm also going to see him at the SECC in a couple of weeks.

Very funny, close to the bone, comedian!

I saw him in Brighton recently and to be honest I had heard most of the jokes before

We wathed his DVD the other day, and were a bit non-plussed. Funny, but not hilarious. Maybe he worked better on Mock The Week because he was offset by some of the other characters...?

I saw him in Northampton last month - all new stuff (since he ins't on MTW anymore)

It was brilliant.

His material is, in large part, thoroughly distasteful, crude, obnoxious, sick and downright offensive.

But he makes it so funny, that although you are somewhat revulsed by the material - you cannot help but laugh - a lot. That balancing act is awesome and he is the master.

I saw him in Plymouth recently and to be honest I had also heard most of the jokes before.

Still think his performance on Live at The Apollo was his best work.

Has anyone who bought tickets for his live tour from ticketmaster been asked to print them out?

Strange, I was expecting them to send the tickets out..

We saw Peter Kay in Cardiff last weekend and lots of people had A4 sheets with tickets printed on them.
They just scan the barcodes at the door.

As others have said, a rehash of previously seen material.
