Does anyone know anyone who is lucky enough to be going? I don't unfortunately or I could have hitched a ride in there bag ;)
dawneh - April 5, 2005 12:33 PM (GMT)
I'm rather glad that I dont know anyone who's going - or I would have to mug them for the tickets !! :lol:
Haze - April 6, 2005 08:14 AM (GMT)
I dont know anyone going but I''m glad because I wouldnt want to hear them when they get back, acting all smug and raving about how funny he was. I'd have to kill them to shut them up! ;)

Don't suppose there's anyone on here from the London area, there may be someting in their local papers?? :huh: ;)

Ok the only thing I saw from a London paper was this short review about the whole evening, that I lovingly typed up for you all. :)
Evening Standard - 7th April 2005
Teenage Cancer Trust Comedy at the Albert Hall
Of all the shows in Roger Daltrey's fundraising week it was the comedy night that sold out first, beating Franz Ferdinand and Robert Plant at the box office. Without a bill even being announced. chart-busting compere Peter kay was enough to send the phone lines into
Glastonbury-style meltdown.
Which was fortunate, because the guests, only revealed yesterday, were serviceable acts never likely to boost sales. Last year this event featured a rampant Ricky Gervais, an ascendant Little Britain and cast iron Steve Coogan. Last night's support was no so much a who's who of British comedy as a who's that?
Cold Feet's John Thomson dusted off some old material to kick proceedings off. Nothing earth-shattering, just a solid repertoire of Hollywood impressions and some hackneyed gags, such as the one about "the dyslexic devil worshipper who sold his soul to Santa".
Perrier nominee Reg Hunter's commanding presence won over a bemused crowd but failed to prepare them for northern character comic Barbara Nice, who drew a little too heavily on a sub-Mrs Merton bingo-winged persona, yet had a great line on her wilting marriage: "The last time we left the house together was when the chip pan caught fire."
After the interval the tone changed, courtesy of surrealist pin-up Noel Fielding, who was breezing along until a heckler interrupted. Fielding fended him off only for Kay to return after a fleeting sketch from Catherine Tate and, in a remarkable lack of solidarity, side with the punter, criticising Fielding for being "too wacky". Dubliner Ed Bryne was more to the host's tastes a mix of trad and lad with an endless armoury of girlfriend anecdotes.
Kay himself was not on scintillating form. This instinctive entertainer was clearly coasting, from schoolday stories of wallpaper-covered exercise books to his one-fingered Soft Cell impersonation to his trite MOR medley finale in the guise of Phoenix Nights's Brian Potter. The over-familiar routines duly worked their magic, while Kay barely broke into a sweat.
Nothing to get excited about then, although this unlikely pop star on
autopilot still beats most comics at full throttle. Not that there was much competition last night.
Bruce Dessau
I get the impression that Bruce didnt enjoy the comedy night! Miserable git. <_<

He is bound to get sick of it. It's the un-original people that will sing it to him thinking that it's the first time anyone has done it! Poor Peter! :rolleyes:
peterkay774 - April 10, 2005 04:22 PM (GMT)

NOEL FLELDINGS ACT WAS A BIT CRAZY I MUST SAY,
HES COMEDY WAS SO DIFF FROM EVERY ONE ELSES THAT NIGHT,
I REMEMBER THE GUY SHOUTING OUT TO HIM FU*K OFF.
NOEL WAS REALLY HURT BY THE COMMENT,
NOEL TURNED TO THE GUY AND SAID "OH-HOW ORIGINAL"

HE GOT THE HOLE OF THE ALBERT HALL TO TELL HIM TO FU*C OFF :P :o :D
PETER THEN CAME ON N SAID "whats all that about"

I doubt we will ever get to see it, I have tried to find out if it is going to be released but there is nothing about it :angry:
dawneh - April 11, 2005 12:31 PM (GMT)
So unfair.... the money that could be made out of such things
PaddysGal - April 11, 2005 03:59 PM (GMT)
We should start a petition, not sure who we would send it to though ;)
