I've seen it before, but his bit about Ricky Gervais reminded me; we've seen Ricky Gervais and Stewart Lee on the same bill before. It was a charity benefit of some sort at the Bloomsbury Theatre, but I have no record of it. I didn't write about it, and I can't find it online. It must have been early 2000s. Any ideas? I know I've seen Stewart Lee more than I have records for, but comedy is even harder to track down after the fact than gigs. This one would be a biggy though if it adds one to the Ricky Gervais count as well as Stewart Lee.
Too busy with work, to use my Free Octopus Energy 1 today! Completely forgot! Damn.
Also didn't go to the pub after work today, would have done but wasn't quite in the mood, and then one of my friends was away so I didn't pursue it. I think the Potting Shed would be shut today anyway.
Back to Parkrun in the morning, but then a quiet weekend I think. I started on the front garden last weekend but have nowhere to put any more rubbish until the bins are collected this week. Still have one set of blinds to replace.
Been doing even more tagging of gigs, to try and work up some interesting stats (of interest only to me of course). Today in 2002 I was seeing The Darkness, and in 2003 it was Limp Bizkit. Well sort of, I think we left before Limp Bizkit came on.
A clear sky and light winds, 15 - 21℃.
I have seen Stewart Lee at least 9 times; Fist Of Fun @ University of Portsmouth (1995), Glastonbury ('99), Stewart Lee - Vegetable Stew @ Leicester Square Theatre (2010), Stewart Lee - Carpet Remnant World @ Leicester Square Theatre ('12), Leicester Square Theatre ('14), Brighton Dome ('15), Edinburgh Assembly Rooms ('15), Bob Slayer's HoHo Theatre @ venue undefined ('15), and Stewart Lee vs The Man Wulf @ EAT (2025), though I still have some bragging tagging to do so this may go up.
