Well I'd suggest watching them and making your own mind up instead of repeating "they were dissapointing".........

I laughed myself daft at both.

Would help. :)

Again I heard both were dissapointing.

As Light says, there was an undercurrent of anger in some of his musings. Excellent.

The only thing that didn't work for me was the Kraftwerk "Hokey Cokey" skit. It was funny for approx 5 seconds, then just got embarassing to watch.

I was astonished at how good this show was. I was expecting an hour or so of meandering and amusing surreality interspersed with songs that, if you closed your eyes, wouldn't have been out of place on Thats Life.

I got the surreal witterings on occasion, sure. But I also got some extraordinarily angry rantings in there (speaking as a mother) which wouldn't have been out of place in Bill Hicks' work. And the songs...well, the Drum n Bush tune would probably do well if given a club release.

[EDIT] I got both Bailey and Moran's dvd's for Xmas, and I was more consistently amused at Bailey's show. Both are superb of course.
