Since I pre-ordered this, it arrived today on the release date as expected. The DVD comes together with a very cool T-shirt, amongst other extras, in a fantastic presentation tin.
As usual, Tim is at his musically comedic best and the orchestra only add to the sheer awesomeness of this fantastic show. The show includes some tried and tested favourites such as 'Darkside', 'If I Didn't Have You' and 'Rock N Roll Nerd', along with a host of soon-to-be-favourites including 'Lullaby', 'The Fence' and 'Cont'.
Filmed at The Royal Albert Hall on the same day as the Royal wedding, the two (or was it 3?) standing ovations Tim received should tell you how well this show went down with the crowd. A combination of great stand-up, awesome songs and a stunning (not to mention perfect) orchestra, make this a superb addition to any Minchin fans collection. And if you're new to the wonder that is Tim Minchin, well where have you been? With an abundance of insight, satire and swearing this is definitely NOT for the easily offended. But if you're able to take life with a pinch of salt, and like your comedy slightly on the dark side, then you've come to the right place, coz Tim definitely has a darkside too...
Enjoy!

Tim Minchin is a genius and this DVD is among his greats, the Tin the DVD and Tshirt come is also very nice and of good quality.
The only bad thing i can say is that when i bought the 'special edition' i was expecting something 'special'.
I feel the t shirt is a real let down, it is just a plain black t shirt with very dark writing on the back, which can hardly be seen unless looking close. The only other detail is the initials 'TM' on the sleeve. I expected more when paying the extra for the special edition version.
Don't get me wrong, the DVD is fantastic, and the tin it comes in is also very smart, i just feel that the t shirt doesn't do justice to the extra money paid.

It was great being there live for the recording, so I am probably a little biased by this, especially featuring in this epic, but I loved every minute live and every minute spent watching it back again. The tin is cool and the t-shirt smart, great bundle and a nice present for any fans of the Minchin.

A gift for my son who was so pleased and doubly excited to find a t-shirt enclosed. For the small amount extra it was worth the look of excitement on his face. What a good idea.

Tim Minchin is on excellent form here.
It has to be said, Minchin is one of my favourite comedian/musicians, in a similar if more scientific vein to Bill Bailey (no offense, Bill). Read more

Incredible.
Although I'm very familiar with the Sydney version of Tim's 'vs' tour, this was the first I'd seen of the London show. Read more
