Billy Connolly is (Not to sound trite) a treasure. Once my ears adjusted to the sound system and his accent, I had a ball. He tells a great story! According to some of the theatre staff, his material was different every night, and all funny.

Billy Connolly was fabulous This THE MAN who is 68 years old.... was on the stage for 3 hours with no intermission.. who does that any more? And he was warmed up from the start... not a 1/2 hour in.

Billy was, as usual, hilarious! We were laughing so hard, it was difficult to breathe! One cannot be offended by profanity, because there is alot of it! Will we see him the next time we have the opportunity? You bet!

Being from England i have known Billy Connelly for many years as a master of comedy, acting, theatre etc
He is funny, funny, funny. He takes every day scenarios and makes them hilarious as only he can.
If you ever get the chance, you need to see this man live. This is my third time and he never disapoints.

Billy Connolly we are sure was amazing as usual. A favorite of this Western Washington couple. However..we either found out to late or were just given bad seats..The balcony seating area had lousy sound. We could barely hear what Billy was saying! People were getting up and leaving in the balcony and it was difficult to see. We thought that was very rude not only to Billy but to people seated. We saw Billy at this theatre last time he came through and he was amazing!! He is still our favorite comdian/actor! We just wish he would come to Seattle and enjoy a theatre with good acoustics. He deserves better!

Great value for the money - Connolly was on stage for over 2 1/2 hours and was funny the whole time. His ability to flip from one unfinished story to the other and come back to finish is uncanny. Billy's language and stories of some parts of society are not for the faint of heart but they are a big part of his success!

Billy Connolly needs to hang up his ridiculous striped pants and put away the platform shoes because he just isn't funny anymore. Used to love his act but now the natural scattered brilliance that used to be has been replaced with a contrived rehearsed insincere bunch of unfunny vulgar nonsense. I kept willing him to be funny but it just wasn't and I cringed at every use of the 'C' word. What a waste of money. I will not be paying to see him again. He should stick to acting.

Having seen Billy Connolly twice before at Hamilton Place, we knew what to expect from him. He delivered and it was better than the first time, or the second. You think you know what he is going to say but his ramblings are so intertwined it makes you think. What about his tattoo?

I am a great fan of his. Have some of his original records 20 plus years old. Always enjoyed his tour VHS tapes and his acting performances. However, I didn't think his show did him justice. I was somewhat disappointed though some of it was up to par. Reliance on bad language can be over done.

There's nothing quite like watching a comic cram an hour and fifteen minutes of great material into a 2 1/2 hour show.

I first saw Billy Connolly on HBO when Whoopi Goldberg "introduced" him to America. That was a LONG time ago. That he hasn't really done a lot of US tour dates since then is really a shame. I've probably watched clips of that show well over 200 times, and still to this day laugh so hard I get tears in my eyes.
So this was a real treat for me, and to introduce him to others in our group the other night. He's simply amazing, a real one-of-a-kind comedian, and a real person.
Over 2 hours just FLEW by, and once again . . . my stomach was cramping from laughing so much and so hard.
If you are OK with real people, using real language, and laughing your ass off . . . don't miss this. It may never come again . . .

What a night! My ribs are STILL sore 3 days later from unabated laughter. Billy Connolly has lost nothing over the years - not even his memory, despite trying to convince us otherwise. He's a wonderful story-teller who paints a perfect picture with words around every, humourous anecdote. There's no mean-spiritedness here (unlike Ricky Gervais last week) despite the hilariously vicious verbal attacks on his poor, long-gone school-teacher as well as Maggie Thatcher and Ronald Reagan, just a wonderfully funny stream of consciousness which entertains no one more than its fiercely observant raconteur! The Royal George is THE PERFECT venue for such an intimate artist who obviously relishes close contact with his audience. He was on-stage for almost three hours without a break ( Messrs. Gervais and Ferguson take note) - not a moment lagged. Billy Connolly and Eddie Izzard are neck-and-neck the best Brtish comedians at work today - Craig and Ricky, you should try catching their shows sometime : you'd learn a thing or two! The Union of Welders' loss has thankfully been the Arts' gain and long may it continue. Chanson d'Amour will never sound the same again .......
