The Mighty Boosh Post - the post that hurts the most...

On Monday, headed out to Shillibeers off Caledonian Rd, North London with Cursor for few pints of Guinness, prior to nipping next door to the Pleasance Theatre to see the first warm-up gig for The Mighty Boosh tour.
It was wildy shambolic and f**king brilliant. Highlights included a monologue from The Moon explaining how Saturn is always pissed but a good cook, Naboo the shaman, a Russian-style mini-play about pies, a fan-letter from
Tom Paulin, faulty / missing props, an audience member having his eyes gouged out, using membership of Ronnie Scott's to impress ladies, and some songs. Top notch comedy from them - as always.
Julian Barratt and Noel Fielding had a little chat to the audience at the end to explain that it was all still coming together...

Aside: Would you believe, I bumped into Julian Barratt in a pub on Friday. Lovely feller. Bought him a pint as a way of saying thanks for all the good comedy. I wish I'd bought him a few more now...
