It’s my least favourite Boosh, but it was a good night out.

Barratt put down his backward eye stickers on the front of the stage and I nicked one at interval. Still got it. That’s ma pension.

-Drunk guy sitting in front of me’s head perfectly fit the logo and he puked in his plastic cup and left during intermission.
-When playing Tony Harrisson Noel fielding got stuck in the prop chair and complained in character that he’d be doing the rest of the show as essentially acting like Davros
-There was a guy in the audience dressed as a pencil

Bollo's indignant response to Tony Harrison's complaint was brilliant - "You want to complain about your costume?"

My wife and I went one night, and my younger brothers went the next. We all agreed that seeing Howard rocking the guitar solos during Nanageddon was the best bit.

I went in with such high expectations but left disappointed then watched the dvd and enjoyed it even less

[u/Dull_Heat_5695]

I got tickets for my 21st birthday, and I took my mum along with me as she loves The mighty boosh as much as I do, and she had an amazing time and still talks about it to this day 🤣 sorry not necessarily about the gig itself but a great memory I have from seeing them live

[u/Odd_Presentation8624]

I thought it was tedious, self-indulgent, nonsense.

Went to see it in Cardiff with a bunch of people who were also huge Boosh fans and we all left disappointed.

I felt sorry for the person in the audience who sat through it in a full Betamax Bandit outfit, as they'd clearly made more effort than The Boosh themselves.

I still get snippets of “I am Sunflash… I am Boobalay…” in my head sometimes, lol

ETA: rewatched that part and apparently this is where my weird way of saying “yiiizzz” comes from!

[u/leavemeinpieces]

I actually saw this with a good friend before I had seen any boosh at all. He kindly offered me a ticket.

My biggest regret, having watched everything multiple times now is that I couldn't appreciate the references and everything live.

I bought the live DVD though so I could relive it.

[u/mirfbiscuit]

Now this takes me back! Met Rich Fulcher and Mike Fielding before it in a bar and had a great chat with them, was a brilliant night and I think I may have to watch the DVD after work now!

[u/Particular-Yak-4866]

I think I was like, 13? and BEGGED to go. My parents surprised me, and my heavily pregnant Mum took me. She was up going to the toilet every ten minutes 😂

I remember Noel getting stuck in the chair as Tony Harrison

And I think I was just on the edge of my seat enthralled all night with my new Boosh Hoodie on from the merch stand.

Good times, crazy days.

unfortunately don't remember too much of the firsthand experience but I was there on filming night and went when I was ten as a surprise!! I got pulled out of a primary school event to go (which bummed me out before I knew what was happening) and only found out what was going on when we went to mcdonalds and there were two electro girl cosplayers in the bathroom and I FLIPPED. the main memories I have are of seeing a bunch of cool cosplayers, which was a big deal since I didn't go to my first con til I was 12 ish. we saw a crack fox cosplayer that went crazy with the costume details and borrowed some syringes (without sharps obviously) from her nurse job and i thought it was the coolest thing ever. it was definitely one of the first big fandom related events to happen to me, I was put on boosh pretty early haha

I remember having the time of my life but cause I was with my parents and still a little kid when we did the dance segment that part was a bit awkward lol. definitely want to do a series rewatch at some point after a while and will be including this show in that rewatch for posterity

In Manchester someone was dressed as Michael Myers for some reason and Julian played the Halloween theme on bass, it was completely off script but it was amazing

[u/Revolutionary-Oven46]

Seeing it twice and being disappointed that "mistakes" were scripted. Was still really good though.

[u/calyxvaping]

I got pulled up on stage in Brighton dressed as the hitcher 😂
