A couple of mates and I went and saw Kevin Bloody Wilson at the Wynnum-Manly Leagues Club on 14 March 2010. KBW played to a packed house with his daughter ‘Jenni Talia from Australia’ warming up the audience as the support act.
He trotted out his classics ‘do you f*%k on first dates?’, ‘Hey Santa Clause (you c*%t)’ and the time honoured ‘Nigel - f*%king legend’ along with ‘Living next door to Alan’ and ‘Mick the master farter’ were mandatory inclusions for the long time fan.
This was a gig in support of a new album release, however, and the new material did not fail to entertain including odes to cyclone Katrina and changing names with an Arab London Cabbie.
Laugh! I haven’t laughed so hard in a long time.
If you get the chance go see Kev as he flogs his new album, Excess All Areas, round Australia then get along and see him; you won’t regret it.
He’s shorter than you expect when you meet him too.
