... watch with your ears alone and not miss much visually. He uses the stage, props and his face, giving us something engaging and entertaining to watch and listen to.
He makes good use of instruments, both the more recognised stuff like keyboards, and those that cause the audience to chant 'oud' consistently like a prayer, and also a very funky piece of Japanese equiptment called Tenori-on, which acts like a dot matrix music player. I really enjoyed seeing that because it's more original and sets this apart from ...more

Bill Bailey Live - Dandelion Mind (DVD): Time To Laugh Out L'Oud'? (736 words)by - written on 23/05/12 (Very useful, 67 readings)

I quite like Bill Bailey, especially having seen him live (from afar) at a music festival last year, enjoying him on TV panel shows and loving the Part Troll DVD. Unfortunately, Dandelion Mind didn't quite live up to my expectations so I definitely wouldn't say it's his best gig. Dandelion Mind was released in 2010 and was film in Dublin at the 02 arena. The theme is, according to the blurb, that of 'doubt'. For those familiar with Bailey's stand up, you may have an idea of what to expect, and that's followed here. He presents a gig of ranting, comedy and musical interludes, serenading us with bizarre tales of life. Some sub-themes include creationism, ... Read the complete review

---Intro--- Although I haven't written them down, I have a few resolutions for 2012. Increasing savings is one of them, and another is reducing my Amazon wishlist. The two don't really go together, but one method of reducing the wishlist is to rent DVDs rather than buying them (using my 6 month Lovefilm subscription). However, there are still those which I do 'need' for my collection. Being a Bill Bailey fan, I happily parted with £3.31 (Used, including P&P on Amazon) and bought Bill Bailey's 'Dandelion Mind'. ---Bill Bailey--- I'd be surprised if people don't know who Bill Bailey is...he's the bearded one who frequently appears on ...

Bill Bailey has been one of my favourite comedians for years. The mixture of surrealist humour, the heavy incorporation of music in his shows and philosophical rants and jokes couldn't be any better if I'm looking for a good laugh. In 'Dandelion Mind', Bill Bailey introduces mostly new material to the show, as usual covering various subjects, angry rants, random jokes all of which are very well explained due to his exceptional vocabulary, which has always been a huge part of his stand up. In comparison to Bill's last release "Tinsel Worm", I would say that the general stand up talking area of the show contained a much better quality of ... Read the complete review
