Not His Best


I'm a Lee Evans fan, but I've got the say that this wasn't one of his best stand-up shows.

Don't get me wrong, there were plenty of funny bits in it, but he seemed even more manic than usual and it started to get a bit like "I hate it when..." almost every minute at some points.

But the thing that got me most was after around 2 hours of comedy, when I was worn out myself and ready for the finish, he started singing songs. I know he's an allrounder these days, but it seemed totally unnecessary.

Any one else got any views on this?

I've not seen any of his other shows, and this was the first one I'd seen, and I found it very funny.

I found it a little too long, however, but I still thought his performance was superb, but I do understand what you mean, where he was constantly talking about hating things!

I found the songs a nice finish to the show however.

well obviously i had heard of him before but this was his first stand up that i had seen but me and all my friends loved it straight away. after this i went out and bought the box set of 5 of his stand ups and would say that this one was awsome.

Watched this for the first time on TV last night - I can honestly say that I never thought I'd laugh that hard in my life, it was painfully funny! The bit about 'dumb footballers' and having kids to lead them on to 'score as many goals as possible'. Hahahaha, legendary!

although it may not be one of his funniest, it still clearly beats by far many of the other comedians routiones out there, lee evans is awsome

reply

I think it was funny, but I think he's lost it a bit.

At one point it was him doing impressions of things he hates and saying *beep* off!" to get a laugh.

im a big fan of lees material but ive only seen live at wembley and the XL tour but i have to say the Xl tour is one of the funniest things ive seen in ages. i absolutley loved it i havent laughed so hard in my life!

Brilliant!

reply

I agree with you there, it wasn't his best... but it was still funny, and I laughed all the way through. "Bats are all over the place with their times, they really are.... they're blind and they only come out at night.... whats the difference!?" XDDD

I personally think that his show in Wembley was the funniest

reply

well i liked it!

"Can i ask you a question?"
ya didnt give a choice sunshine

reply

This one is his BEST, followed by the Wembly Tour.

reply

Yeah i agree, i personally think his scotland performance was the best.

doctor:bend your knees
patient:aaaggghhh!
Doctor:no, the other way

that was his best joke

I personally think this is the best (I was even there the night of the recording and am on the DVD :D) I think i like Wembley close second with scotland after that.

reply

Wembley remains my personal favourite, but XL was still very good. It is especially good on first viewing.

Although, I've never laughed so hard than when I first watched Wembley.

reply

Oh no, the guy said "*beep* off" too get a few laughs. Well thats just ruined the two hours of comedy gold for me. Get real mate.
