    Just watched it there. It took me a good 20-30 mins to get into his style and all that. Once I did I thought it was class.

    Anyone remember the funny farm from back in the 80's/90's? He did a wee set on that. Sure I saw it on youtube.

    I know he did a show in Scotland- it's a pity that there is no recording of it :54:

    Nice one :50: never seen that before. He did a full show in Glasgow I think, during his Relentless or Revelations tour as well. Read somewhere that he was ripping the * out of rangers fans. Of course there's a picture of him outside Parkhead too :notworthy

    Thought he was ok. I just got the feeling there was a period where people were saying they liked him when they didn't really have a clue what he was talking about.
