Decades of tiny pieces from briefly inspired humans.
Here are just a few of the great ones…

A true original. Thank you for sharing your genius with the world; you’ve made a lifelong fan out of this American lady
My Aunty in the UK went to get her grandson a copy of ‘You so F*****g Rock’ she couldn’t bring herself to say the word to ask for it so she phoned her daughter and got her to say it over the phone!!!
My daughter turned me on to you and said, “Don’t you think grandma would have liked him?” The answer was, “Yes, she would have loved him!” My mom was a professional piano player and her favorite stuff to play was silly, old songs from the 20’s, 30’s and 40’s, but especially parodies. I grew up listening to her play crazy, little, unknown tunes, then sharing with my friends. I have so missed her and can’t begin to thank you enough for working hard to become famous so you could share this great musical niche.
I’m an agnostic in southern Oregon, USA…Maybe , I’m the only one. Today, I listened to White wine in the sun. It was the first time since I played it to the most wonderful Mum a man could ask for. She left this earth, last January. No, I don’t know where she went. But she sure did love that song. I played it for her last Christmas, when she was so ill. I just want to tell you thank you, for putting a smile and a tear to both of our faces.
I bought a park, this summer. No, its a first for me. I bought it, because Mum would have wanted me to. Mum used to swim there, with all us kids, in the best swimming hole in Oregon. . I’m naming it Merete’s Cove after my Mum.Its one of the worlds most beautiful places. I’m trying to build a beautiful bandstand there. Mum loved music. I welcome you to sing there someday. I know its a little crazy. But including you, there would be at least two Atheists near the stage. Three including my sweet daughter, Brook, who also loves your music. Maybe I dream too big……. Either way, My family will be listening to white wine in the sun, this Christmas, and thinking of Mum.
Hi Tim – My wife and I saw you in Thousand Oaks on Saturday and said “hello” afterwards. We’re the couple from Phoenix who mentioned to you that I played piano and sang at her over the Internet and in return she married me. Pretty good trade, honestly. We made it back safely, by the way. Anyway I just wanted to drop a note to say thank you for such a fantastic show, and your transformative influence on my life. I’m very very very happy to be able to say that I shook your hand, and I’m very very very sad that I declined to be in the picture that you took with my wife. Come back soon!

Hey Tim&Co.
I first saw u(tim) @ moorabbin town hall in 05 and was soooooo fu***ng impressed-u r a genius. My sister thinks ur weird and even though i sort of agree, i still think u r awsome-kEEP IT UP.
Hey hey tim, the donut shop that I work at (Puffin Fresh Whitfords City, Perth) just started distributing Canvas Bags. Well not canvas as such, but those big reusable hard plasticy ones. I’m not too sure what they’re actually made of, but I’m very glad, because I was previously getting told off by my boss for not offering customers plastic bags to put their multiple donuts in. ‘It can’t be that hard to just *carry* them, guys, Do it for the environment.’ But apparently there’s no room for environmental friendliness in the world of donut retail.
Well g2g, I’m off to work :D
was the photographer at your radio recording at the drill hall london on the 2 nov which was great fun…loved the song about pigs very funny,hope to catch a show at the duchess got some great shots for the bbc too!!!!
To Blake:
I really meant that i dont think
We get circumsised
You get circumsised
Why not get circumsised togethor would sound as good as.
We dont eat pigs etc.
Maybe i was wrong…
Your music has been with me through some tough times in America. I am a Black woman. I don’t have much hope for changing my stars. But hearing your excellent voice rock n rolling my troubles away… at least for a day… keeps me sane. I know you do the same for millions around the world. It was my birthday a few days ago. I turned 46. I hope to see you live again before I reach 50. I promised my niece (she’s always challenging me) that I would chase one dream this year. I hope I don’t sound too weird when I say, I want to sit in that future audience of Minchin fans and scream my head off for you again. My humble dream. Much love from Portland, Oregon USA.
Thanks for the positive in this sea of controversy. I liked your message so much I bought the book!
Hi Tim. Mike from Tampa here. Once you hit 70, you start thinking of things you’d like to do while you still can. My daughter and I saw your NYC TM & his Piano and London Songs the World Will Never Hear shows. Hard to to top that. Then it hit me. Dream big! Would you consider bringing back your Royal Albert Hall Orchestra show? I’m a tennis player. Your NYC and London shows coincided with the US Open and Wimbledon. It was much easier selling going across the pond to my velp, if I also got to attend one of the majors. Thanks. Mike
I’m thankful you came to Toowoomba. Watching real people with really amazing talent was a blast of fresh air, blowing away the junk that builds up from scrolling. Phew, you came in time. Thanks again xxxx
Dearest Tim, I just wanted to post a thank you / congratulations, to you and your team on the end of your tour; the gig in Toowoomba was the perfect finale! Thank you for sharing your new work with us tonight, we could all see what it meant to you, although I did have a pretty good view of your celebratory Hi-5 during the next number. I am just hoping that tonight you felt the love of an entire generation of students, from one of those special tax exempt organisations, here in Toowoomba. Starting them with ‘Storm’ in the middle years Philosophy elective, and always ending with your UWA speech for the Yr 12’s…I’m not saying that you are a ‘tool’, but you know what? You were a great tool! Someone, whose intelligence and wit opened the eyes of a generation, and more importantly, gave hope to those who thought, or were at a minimum, interested in thinking… Love your work – its importance simply can’t be measured!
Hi Tim, I was listening to White Wine in the Sun again today. It pops up in my social media memories all the time because I’ve shared it so much over the years. My Dad really loved Christmas — he loved having everyone around him. He passed away in 2019, on the 17th of December, at 80 years of age. He just wanted to make it to one more Christmas. Upright came out that same month. The song Carry You, and the series itself, absolutely broke me… but somehow carried me through as well. I don’t think I really grieved in the way I expected to until this year. Suddenly, it’s hitting me like a train.I really miss him. This Christmas it will be just my Mum and me. I’m towing my little 1986 Viscount caravan up to the lake at Wooroonook, Victoria, to try to make something meaningful of the day for her. She’s 81 now and struggling to get around. My brother, sister-in-law, niece, nephew, and even my sons won’t be there. It’s going to be a hard one. Christmas just doesn’t bring me joy anymore. But still, I’ll sip white wine in the sun, think of my Dad, and try to make a happy memory with Mum — because I know her time is drawing close too. I just wanted to say thank you. Your music has a way of touching people at their deepest places, and these songs have been a part of my healing more than you could know. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas with your family and I hope you keep writing the kind of music that reaches people when they need it most. Thank you ~ Megan xo
Dear Tim. We went to your concert in Canberra tonight. We have to drive 2 +1/2 hours and stay overnight. It was very well worth that effort. There were many moments that made us laugh and cry and think deeply about my life and where to from here. We are in our senior years and enjoyed it all immensely. We have followed your career from the beginning and as rusted on nerds will continue to do so. I saw Matilda the musical live in Sydney and enjoyed that very much. Would love to see Groundhog if it comes our way. Thanks again for all the music and the chat. Loved it all. Love to you and your family. Coral
I saw your show in Brisbane on Friday with my partner. I have never seen a crowd so obedient to putting their phones down. We all desperately wanted to photograph the real life Tim Minchin for ourselves. Many took the sneaky blurry shots that will forever be the bragging point over Christmas dinner. The recovery from accidentally entertaining the comedian in the crowd, to the perfectly balanced sound was amazing. Thank you for giving us almost an hour of extra entertainment. Absolutely worth it. I’m so glad I saw this before seeing Metallica tickets. It would have been a hard choice. Probably would have still chosen you. This is a big tick on my life bucket list.
Hi Tim. Mike from Tampa here. My daughter and I loved yer show at the Apollo. Matilda at Cambridge there’s… no words. The London sites and a day at Wimbledon after 7 hours on the que. Could’ve been perfect, butt…You didn’t do Airport Piano, so this is all your fault. I had to do it. I’m a 70, mediocre singer, though energetic and enthusiastic. I sang Airport Piano at Karaoke last night. Sounds ok but… I live in a nudist resort. My 70 y/o 140lb nekid scrawny bod singing my favorite song. I’d include a vid, except cameras are not allowed…
Hi. I just wanted to say. I’m finally listening to “Time Machine” (I was going to do it sooner, but it felt so weird to do so right after Tom died. I felt like I had to listen to him for awhile first). And I got to The Song of The Masochocist… and broke down crying. When “Apart Together” came out it was not a good time. For anyone really. I’m in the US and it was just. SO BAD. And then that album came out and I listened on repeat. And it made things better. I would just lay in bed as it felt like we were in the 10th, 11th, 12th month of the apocalypse and would cry as songs like “The Absence of You” comforted me against the absence of the WORLD. Because that was it, the whole WORLD was a hole and it was missing and everything was horrible. And “Apart Together” was what kept ME together. And listening to “Time Machine”, 4 tracks in, and I broke down sobbing because I had somehow forgotten just how much hearing your music when I’m in a dark place, like I am again, can just mend me and make it ok. Even for a little bit. And I had always hoped someday I could tell you that in person but, I’m an American, nope, so here I am. Anyway, thanks. For putting this box here and for making all the music you do. I’ve been listening for a long time, and you’ve gotten me through so much. Thank you for everything.
This is silly because I don’t really think you will read it in person but I still want to say Thank you for saving my marriage! We’ve been through a lot and there are so many times I’ve just wanted to walk away from everything. It took me a long time to discover you (since I live in Sweden where “everyone” says “Heh, Tim who?”) but the two first songs I heard were White wine in the sun (which reminded me of the importance of family) and Not perfect (which reminded me that I am pretty nice and can stand myself). Your rock ‘n’ roll nerding makes me happy and your love songs make me sad and happy at the same time and I confess the huuuuge confirmation biases ? My 50th birthday was coming up and I felt trapped, old and unloved. I thought about spending it in Paris all by myself. Then you unveiled your UK tour! Bam! I bought tickets to Edinburgh and told my husband that he could come with me if he promised to try to understand WHY I really had to go and he was not allowed ruin it! He prepared by listening to the songs and our kids gave him “clues and keys to mummy” and he nailed them all. I haven’t felt so loved in years! And to be there seeing and hearing you live, sharing tears of laughter and touched hearts, feeling his eyes on me when I was ALIVE for the first time in years and holding his hand to all the lovesongs (including the boobs ?)… yes, you saved us. Thank you ??
…and here is the rest…

if tim doesn’t eat pigs and i don’t eat pigs y not …not go ona date together together ans not eat pig together…….forever tim and i together forever….lol
break it down take you canvas take your canvas bags….to the supermarket
I just thought that I should point out that in the pics section screaming is spelt incorrectly. It’s written there as “Screming”, there should be an “a” in there. Please do not neglect the “a”, it is very lonely and needs your love.
Apart from that, this site is lovely. It’s very pretty!
Oh sad, i’m late to comment in december. It’s funny, i always break out in song at school with ‘break it down…take your canvas, take your canvas…” that or ‘sometimes i get a bit angry…’ its funny, me and my friend say the whole thing in sync. the rest of my group love it, but worry when i say, ‘and i’d like to be a POLITICIAN…’
New log. December 1st. New month. New resolve.
Dear Diary,
I will not post any more deeply personal and crazily sweet notes on TM’s guest book.
I will not post any more deeply personal and crazily sweet notes on TM’s guest book.
I WILL NOT!!! post ANY MORE Deeply personal and crazily sweet notes on TM’s guest book.
How can one man be so consumately beautiful, so rancor yet so dutiful
so lovely and so loving and so – oh God…
I will not post any more deeply personal and crazily sweet notes on TM’s guest book
It makes me look silly
Thats so romantic No Need
i saw you years ago in Bathurst and till this day it has still been the best performance. I keep checking the site form Sydney shows. You truly amazing and a born performer. im so glad you use your talent to make people have an amazing night seeing you and you really bring laughter to peoples lives and that it self it amazing. and god damn, you are funny!
Okay. Here’s how I seem to understand how this works. He (“Tim”) graces us with his light, laughter and lovingly razor sharp presence, offers himself to the world with naked chest bared to industrial or small household fans, makes us laugh, makes us cry (go to him and Gerry Lynch’s gut wrenching duet of Leonard Cohen’s Halleluyah on utube) — he does all this, and our part, our job, our only one obligation as he sees it is simply to purchase items with an item fabricated with natural fibers? If you don’t mind my saying, well, that just doesn’t seem fair. xo
Ok. This is, if not hilarious, well, then amusing. Does Tim know that someone — who named themselves EREGILKIBLY posted a link to an over the counter viagra? Does “EREGIKIBLY” have a clue? It’s probably one of those “worms” – an auto generated spam to sell the stuff, but all things considered. Uh. Viagra for Tim? That is worth a chuckle. And anyway — don’t buy the stuff — If you need help then you need a new mate. It’s not in a pill it’s who is next to you in your bed….!!!!
Hiiii tim ! i learnt how to play the peace anthem for palestine last week, and pissed my parents off in the process haha.
well great music and tell Tony the fish i wont ostracise him !
Purrr… Listening to My Neighbours Ass, very clever as always also any idea where we can get our own Adam’s Apple, it’s not just you who wants one you know.. (cough* spicks and specks)

“Maybe you just want to say hi. Maybe you want to critique a piece of my work. Maybe you want to ask me where I live and come and bring me cookies. Whatever. Stick it in the box down below.”
You don’t need cookies. You don’t need critiques. You absolutely do not need me to say hi (againnnnn). I need to make contact, though. so here it is. if you have pity, you will indulge me. I’m sure soon I will right myself and get on with my life. Right.
hi tim if you dont reply to me i would think that it would be ok to use your stuff

Hi Tim,
Went to see you at the comedy festival a few years back (2005??)and just loved your show. I told bucketloads of people that it was worth every cent so I hope they all turned up! I bought one of your calico bags at that show with ‘Tim Minchin – rock n roll nerd’ on it. I treasure that bag. Was a bargain at $5 and wish I had another. Have you got any more?
hi Tim, if you don’t reply to me I will think we are running away together (with your wife and new baby?) (well, this isn’t very well thought out). reply to: elevator_doesnt_go_all_the_way_to_the_top@hotmail.com
See you in Hawaii!!! Oh boy. If you don’t reply, we’re as good as there!
Love you Tim
cant wait for your show in Brisbane in 8 days :D
cya then.

I WONT STALK YOU.
POTC_fan_4eva@hotmail.com
i am using it for a school project about his auto biography
I like the “I WONT STALK YOU” disclaimer below. That must have put your mind at ease. I also like the fact that she must have read through her comment, and then decided that the disclaimer was needed. I’ve never made such a statement, but luckily I’ve never verged on stalking. I hope. If I ever come across as a bit stalker-ish, do let me know so I can tone it down.
if you love tim email me some things because i love him to nathan.turner.18@hotmail.com
tomrorow night!!!!!! yes that’s right, I am excited. very very excited I will be seeing you tomorrow night. I will be requesting a signing of my canvas bag, .. and of the Laugh-a-Poolooza Dvd, and of the So Live dvd..
will you be in the melbourne international comedy festival line up again this year?
Mr. Minchin, what can I say. Just witnessed ‘So Live’ with a triple layer of briefs on as a safety net and ended up applauding the idea.
I was hoping for an small interview with you for a unoriginal blog that me and a friend write on. He recently snagged ex-10CC member Kevin Godley to dish out the dirt and I need to top him, so if borrowing a few minutes for a few questions seems feasible, hit me up on the email provided.
Keep writing and playing….so in other words, pliting.
– Prophet.
Hi!
Man, You’re amazing!! I’m watching Your show “So live” over and over again and
every time i like it more.POLAND LOVE YOU!! I don’t even have my favourite song because i love them all.Keep writing and singing!You’re born to do this and You’re really are deep guy;)
Black out!F**k YEAH!
I have tried so hard to write songs even a tenth as funny as Tim’s.
I can’t make them a hundredth as clever.
I can’t play piano solos and make them engaging like he does.
And yet, I have not yet bought the DVD…
And I missed the gig he played in Swindon (which is near my hometown)…
Is this blasphemy?

Hey there;
I just wanted to know why it’s so hard to get one of the magnificent Tim Minchin canvas bags. The link to buy it is only ever up there for about 1 minute on average, then dissapears. And whenever you follow said link, it’s always sold out.
Why is something so great so hard to obtain!
Oh yeah, love your work. =)
x
Um, pure genius, high praise from me considering my ridiculous ego but neway lol keep it up…
I can personally vouch for the fact that yes, the below is annoying. Maybe if you’re lucky, Tim will be more tolerant…
This is some positive feedback for you show tonight. Was fantastic, I am kind of upset that I didn’t Book more than one night. Amy and I want to thank you very very muchly for signing Laugh-A-Poolooza DVD, Canvas Bag (with Crap in it) and So Live DVD.
Your new song about Christmas, your daughter was .. I cannot describe how fantastic it really was, one of the most emotionally touching songs I have herd in a long time. Please stick it up somewhere so I can download it.
Also just a side note I want your hair, is it possible to send out instructions or make a blog entry about how you get your hair to look the way it does? I was going to ask tonight but didn’t want to distract you from your allegiance of fans.
HELLO!!!!! LOVE ya work mate………. can’t wait to get the DVD :) HAVE FUN!!
Tim – loved the show last night. What a genius..(can’t half tell what your profession used to be!) We had a ball, and have told everyone to make sure they see you before you finish up the run at the Powerhouse! It’s nice to be able to enjoy your wit (censorship free) and have a great laugh. By the way….your Christmas song was amazing…and inspired me to make sure I have a glass of white wine in the sun this Christmas and send the pic to my “Northern Hemisphere” friends around the world! Keep up the great work. Cheers to your wife too for providing such wonderful inspiration.
Tim You were Brilliant on Wednesday Keep up all the good work and keep F#*KING ROCKING
my friend had a dare game at her birthday and mine (with my atrocious singing voice), was to sing the chorus of my favourite song…i spent the next five minutes muttering ‘inflatable you’ under my breath to figure out my favourite verse…(concerned). so, to cut a long story short…you’re brilliant. :D
P.S. are you coming to Adelaide any time soon? I sure hope so :D
Tim Minchin Interview on Random Brainwave!
http://www.randombrainwave.blogspot.com
I was at the visy thearte last night, BRILIANT!! your show is the most genius thing iv seen in ages! if a.) it wasnt sold out and b.)i had enough money, i would see it time and time again! my bro has bourght me ‘so live’ dvd for christmas and i so want to watch it right now but itll be something 2 look forward 2! i could never get sick of your work! you are SO F**KING ROCK! lol
I was at the visy on wednesday night and i can truthfully say that your performance was one of the most enjoyable things i’ve seen in a fair while (and i’m sure Screaming Amy agrees with me). Thanks for signing stuff and for kissing my mate on the cheek (even though he did lord it over us for a bit).
One more thing, your encore song was really beautiful and I’m sure it touched everyone who heard it.
Hey Tim.
Just asking i’m new to listing to your songs and i’m only 12 and if mum heard some of your songs my head would be off.
But i’m not sure if you have but you should write a song about how John Howard got Crushed but Kevin Rudd.Not to be mean but it would be funny.
Hey Tim. Just asking i’m new to listing to your songs and i’m only 12 and if mum heard some of your songs my head would be off. But i’m not sure if you have but you should write a song about how John Howard got Crushed “BUY”(sorry about spelling) Kevin Rudd.Not to be mean but it would be funny.
I saw u “live”, on thursday, it was magical, i didn’t know what you’d be like, i knew you had funny songs, but i didn’t relise that your monologs (?standup?) would be so good and fit in so well. keep it up ur easly australias best comedian (trust me, i know about these things) so just incase you were thinking “thats enough, music and comedy for me, i think i’ll become a used carsales man”.
Just listened to you on Radio 2 in the UK whilst driving to pick up my son from a gig – awesomely funny so thanks for making the drive more fun!! When are you coming to the UK??
hello tim. we love your songs…they’re awesome! Especially ‘Inflatable You
‘ and ‘Fat Children’. Now, one of the main reasons we are writing to you is that we would like to know…what is your real eye colour? I know what you’re thinking (eg. these people are crazies), but we actually would like to know. We’re getting very confused! Post it somewhere…ANYWHERE. Please? If YOU have pity for US, you will indulge us!
Hi Tim
We went to see your first tour at Brisbane Powerhouse a couple of years ago.. We thought it was p*ss funny and an awesome display of skill.
I am sure your performance is still funny for first timers, but after 2 years and almost exactly the same material as the first show we saw, we all left disappointed..
Let us know when you get some new material! Maybe you can call the new show “So F**king New” and maybe change the colour of your eyeliner so people can sense some “change”.
Amen
terribly sorry wadman, you’re right.
it was exactly the same show you saw last year except for:
– so fucking rock
– if you open your mind too much your brain will fall out
– some people have it worse than me
– you grew on me
– if you really loved me
– drinking white wine in the sun
oh and also the vast majority of the talk was new.
… which is about 60 minutes of material you didn’t see last year. ie – the equivalent of a whole new show.
i feel awful that you and your friends had to suffer through some old material.
ya fuckin weirdo

I’m sorry sweetheart – you’re right.
Let’s never fight again.
xxxooo
An excellent work! KEEP IT UP![url=http://dec14.awardspace.info/?abbeville-building-and-loan]abbeville building and loan[/url]
Tim! Thanks for the show on Sunday, loved every single second of it!
To the man in the red shirt, who arrived late with his daughter (?) and asked me for a drink after. Thank you, very flattering and if I would have been single I would have enjoyed a drink after…
Can’t stop singing white wine in the sun. ‘Tis my favourite christmas song.
Thanks Timmy.

Tim – saw your show last night. I loved it – you’re fantastic (even with the piano stool breaking). Your final Christmas song was beautiful. My parents have just split – consequently tearing my family in two so hearing your song made me cry. I loved it – keep doing whatever you’re doing.
Hey Tim, your a hilarious guy, i love ten foot cock and a few hundred virgins, and fat children its so true, neways your other songs are good too keep it up its good to see an Aussie out there and making his mark. neways im off hope to get to 1 of your shows soon, or more you know theyre all good lol cya.
So, does this make me a stalker because I have gone to the trouble to google Tim Minchin? I prefer to think of myself as an avid fan who was simply blown away by your recent performance at the Powerhouse. Admittedly I was seduced by your tickeling of the ivories, melted by the dulcit tones of your voice, amused with your musical wit and charm, mesmirised by illuminating blue eyes, and almost speechless at the opportunity to say: “Hello, you made my face hurt”.
I await with great anticipation for the next coming of ‘Tim’ to Brizzie.
Mrs Mac :)
and Smac was chuffed for the photo you graciously posed for, you are lovely.
Tim Minchin, I am as straight as they come, yet you I would spend the rest of my life with. I love your work, I love the way you always seem happy, I specially love the way that you have dedicated your life to making other people happy. I respect you incredibly.
Thank you.
loved the cameo appearance at CCGS speech morning. It made my kids’ day! Now they’re just pissed that Mummy’s going to see you at His Maj tonight and they’re not old enough too – ha! ;-)
hey tim, its mine n my boyfriends 1st anniversary and he took me to see your concert tonight and i had a blast. but to be honest i love your songs, and you grew on me, meant sooooo much to me. i really enjoy the work that you do. finally the world can see an AUSTRALIAN do so well.

Hey Tim!

hahaha im a good fan, and a rock’n’roll nerd alike
luv your work, and everything you stand for.
Have a MERRY CHRISTMAS at home!!
Hi Tim, wnen are you coming to tour England again?
wow. everyone is just wowed. it’s so annoying from the States. you’re not here. you’re wowing them over there. they are all wowed. and well they should be. but the States. well, NYC, specifically, with our one and only WORLD’S BEST DELI are all longing for the artist formerly known as the canvas bagger. what can we do? longing. what can be done? we have echolalia (the mental disorder where you repeat repeat what you have heard heard) so here you go go…….(music please)….You never need to be competetive….your repetoire is not repetitive….i’ve never seen you take a sedative…eternally live-able you….you never complain or make fun of my underwear, a real girl would do that but I know you really don’t care….
G’day from WA!
Have loved your stuff since a friend first lent me your CD 2 years ago. Saw you on Spicks & Specks with Adam’s Apple! and on the Sidewshow (Is Claire Hooper related 2U?)
FINALY SAW YOU LIVE AT HIS MAJ on WEDNESDAY NITE – AWESOME!
Great to see a SANDGROPER doing so well – Magic Happens!!!!
Like you – I’ll B spending Xmas with my parents, siblings, wife, and daughters – Drinking White wine in the sun (Coz it’s not cold!)
I also gotta say after visiting the FanSite, I now use *MAS*.
However, last night at the show I was ROFL!
Hey Tim, thanks for the great photo shoot on Wednesday. After hearing your sound check, I’ve asked Santa to add your dvd to my xmas pressie list. Hope you and your family have a great Christmas. All the best, Daniel (J Mag).
Nice trill technique. In the peace anthem, what fingers are you using?
Saw your show last night at The Maj and you far exceeded my expectations, which I assure you were very high.
You are truely a talented person not just with one trait but so many!
We laughed our asses off, and were amazed by such a beautiful unique voice and the piano skills of a trained professional (not a nerd…), and not once did I get bored! ha!
You are F**king awesome. We will see your show again if ever it shows where we happen to be!
You DO rock. And those people who will never see your show…may as well be dead.
Saw the show last night and it was excellent – I had tears of laughter. You really are very clever and talented. Please keep up the great work and social commentary.
i saw you at the maj last night and it was perfectly clear that i was the youngest there but i dont care coz i was so overwhelmed with how talented you are plus i love how take notice of people who shout out to you because its so much better to be recognised then ignored, p.s. hows Evette lol
please come to perth again
I was heavily disappointed with your show last night. Saw you at UWA last year and was expecting new, fun material not the same, ‘I’m so clever because I hate God’ spectacular that you performed last time. The concept mildly amusing at first but now it’s tired and boring. Also, the ‘rock’n’roll nerd’ song was incredibly dull and egotistical. I left at the interval.
It’s a shame the disappointed fan didn’t recognise that, although a lot of the material is often the same, the way that it is performed varies each time, making each show unique and just as enjoyable as the last. I’ve seen it 3 times, and I still love it. Did you hear a different version of Rock n Roll Nerd to the rest of us? I could have sworn he was putting himself down during most of it…And as for expecting new material: you should have read your program more carefully ;)
Dear disappointed fan. perhaps you should try coming up with a one-man show. Artists, you may be surprised to learn, are not robots. Musical comedy is much like regular stand up comedy, where just one premise or one concept is worked, reworked, reworked, reworked until it becomes right. Again, here is a surprise, after years of refining and creating something lovely (as is Tim’s current show) the “next” wonderful show does not just pop out because you have seen it before. If you go to any stand up club in the city you will see great comic who repeat the exact same routines to new audiences without changing them for many months. Creative work is not like candy or soda machines where you put some more money in and get a different product. No doubt Tim will create something new, something brilliant in his many many many days to come. But, disappointed fan, why don’t you try coming up with what he has first before you walk out, tail tucked, moping.
Oh, by the way. In leaving early, you would have missed a brand new song that everyone’s been raving about. Oops.
Ha, disappointed fan got served.

I like that people who write messages like that:
a) bother, and
b) never leave a legit email address.

Hey Tim i went to your show in perth on the 19th YOU FUCKING ROCKED my mum really liked your last song could u put the mp3 on your site so i can stop her bitching about how you always swear HAHA anyway i just wanted to say you were awesome and yeh YOU ROCK :D
To anyone who was in any way disappointed with the show…. You can F**K off. Are you really going to tell me that you would only watch a movie you loved once, or listen to a song you enjoy once…. no…. well then…. f**k off. Keep your opinions to yourself. There is no point posting them here as you will be run out of town (or run off the page??!!….hmm….)
I thought the show was brilliant. Drinking white wine in the sun is possibly one of the most beautiful and more than likely the most correct Christmas songs ever. Two thumbs up to you, Tim.
PS: hope you’re in Perth for Chrissy Day – Looks like it will be a beautiful day for drinking white wine in the sun. I know I will be!

BTW – The Loving & Peaceful Yuletide Half Hour (BBC Radio 2)- Absolutely tops! Wish we would get decent radio segments like that here. But then again, when you live in “Dullsville” its hard to get anything decent, and when we do, we’re all over it like a colony of E. Coli over room-temperature beef.
nice.
Dude, there is nothing else to say apart from you rock! can’t wait to see when your gunna be playing in england next year, i know its probably nothing to do with you but is there any chance of being able to release your dvd in england, i want it so bad but obviously cant play region 4 dvds! Love your work man, keep it up.
hi tim,
just wondering what you’re doing about ‘not perfect’ now that johnny howard isn’t our prime minister anymore (thank god), are you going to change the lyrics, or just leave it and hope that when you’re famous everyone remembers who howard was?
Let’s see the ‘Disappointed fan’ write a comedic stage show or two.
With music.
And let’s see them apply eyeliner well.
And sing in tune.
And be at least slightly funny.
In your own time :)
Tim is the wittiest, funniest and most talented Aussie around! Guitar sux and piano rox. Oh and disappointed fan, we need your retarded opinion like bananas need pyjamas and a nun needs c*ck.
i have the “so live” dvd and have introduce so many of my friends and family to tim, his quirky and sometimes dark sense of humour has become a hit in our house….. i now take my canvas bags to the supermarket and get weird looks as i cant help but singing ‘take your canvas take your canvas take your canvas bags to the supermarket. brake it down’
first time i heard tim he was performing angry (feet), it was love at first exposure, i have never been able to have a serious in depth convo since.
Ahoy! She is quite a fan of his work and persona! She now has a new ‘number one show of her life’ on her list of many. She was immensely pleased with the scoring of a photo and signature and would like to thank the legendary Timmy for creating such an amazing and funky performance!
Smac (aka Sarah Mac)
White Wine In The Sun brought a tear to my eye… Lovely, just lovely. :)
haha, u are WAY to good Tim! I’ve had ‘ten foot cock and a few hundred virgins’ stuck in my head, lol and even though im not a religious person at all i go to a catholic school so its not a smart move to go around singing about umm…well yea, anal sex and god hehe!
Hi Tim, just listened to two programmes you did for Radio 2 on the BBC and laughed so much, a small piece of wee fell out of me. Hope you will be appearing in the UK (Manchester, ideally – hint, hint) soon.
Scot – the dvd is multi-region (PAL only though, so it pretty much plays everywhere except the US apparently). I’m from the UK and ordered mine from Madman, it plays just fine! So buy it! Tim – you’re great :D (I’m sure Scot’s great too, but I’ve had a lot less contact with him)
Wahooo! You Rule!! I Like The ‘If You Open Your Mind Too Much Your Brain Will Fall Out’ one lol that’s funny!!!
ME! Again…
1. I love that song about the canvas bags… but what is a canvas bag? is it like one of those sainsbury’s bags for life? lol.
2. Why does the page go loads that way ->
when there’s nothing there?
Do celebs sign guestbooks?
Do celebs sign guestbooks?
And why do you ask for e-mail? are you gonna write back to us??!
whenever i sign a guestbook i feel like im staying at a b&b but i neither slept lasr night nor did i eat anything this morning. so i feel kinda ripped off and dissapointed. i expectr a gift basket in the mail!
MERRY CHRISTMAS! hope that santa can find u all!
Just listening to your stuff on Radio 2.
It’s brilliant.
I hope I can get to see you live sometime.
Guess what i got for chrissy… no, really, just guess…
Tim minchin -So Live!!!!! and it is so cool.
Wow… criticizing your work is not a good idea is it? (not that i would… but you do reply when people complain… No, I could never deny my true Tim-loving, fanatic nature.) Man, you have an army behind you. (one that i am proudly a member of)
Merry Christmas everyone!
Hope you all got what you wanted (such as a little bit of Tim!! In the form of So Live or a CD or so I mean – not like one of his Kidneys or something!!)
You’re totally awesome! I’m so coming to your show when you tour Australia in the future.
Oh and by the way, I’d be happy to bring you cookies if you told me your address.
All the way at the bottom of the page? Nice one. lol, I just watched your DVD; brilliant mate, but the audience didnt seem as good as The Sideshow audiences hey.
I love your versions of Rock n Roll Nerd and Angry(feet) poem on that show. dunno why theydecided to cancel but ah well.
Ps. Sandgropers Unite!
yea, just so u know…if u ever want some cookies delivered to your door…no objections to being the delivery chick, just so u know! lol
I’m just watching your ‘so live’ DVD and you amaze me. It’s great how the stuff you say can be so normal but because no one ever thinks about it, it’s funny. I love your poem “angry (feet)”.
I got the DVD for Christmas and surprise surprise I LOVE IT!! My brother bought one for me and one for himself. Tim is Crazy and I personally love his religious views. I could use some good group…prayer. Either way Tim should COME TO CANADA so we can enjoy his brilliance live.
Regarding disappointed fan….. I had some people (fans they called themself *shakes head*) ask me after seeing the show three times ‘Isn’t it the same show each night?’
After I got my breath back I said ‘No, no it isn’t’…. the delivery of the songs change, the mood and temperament of the audience change, the talking bits change, everything changes, every night and it usually depends on the momentum of the audience.
On the Thursday night in Brisbane (correct me if I’m wrong guys… you know who you are) Tim received a spontaneous standing ovation…. The audience just loved him and it was a wonderful night. The crowd just ‘got’ everything. It was perfect. There was a rhythm, a spark and the audience was like water and just were willing, eager to go wherever tim wanted to take them. Sorry timmy…. it was magic.
Then on the Friday night some of the crowd were very aggressive and egotistical which of course put Tim on the spot and altered the material that night as any other night. Some parts were limited and there was much ad-libbing (is that one word or two?) due to a very vocal audience.
I DID NOT pay nearly a grand in accommodation and plane tickets, plus on top of that tickets to the show (except Thursday – thankies timmy) to see the same show five times.
I went to see an artist ‘do his art’ in five amazingly unique, different, independent and talented ways. And that’s exactly what I got. No two shows or songs were alike, and I didn’t expect them to be.
Disappointed Fan…. I think you missed seeing the nuance, the subtly, the variety, the depth, breath, and diversity in tim minchin’s work. So sad.
Seeing tim minchin live, once, does not mean you have seen him. It means you’ve seen a particular version of him.
I found the comment lacked a basic noun essential when criticising art…. ‘constructive’.
xxxx Witchy
Oh Fuck…. Kirsty’s going to kill me….
Constructive is an adjective….. a ‘describing word’
I’m so much better at ‘doing words’
i arrived in perth on the 20th
so disapointed that i missed you by one day
i saw you in birmingham and you are a f**king legend :]
Mr. Minchin, I feel you’re punishing me for not owning an ipod. All the downloads are for ipod only, and it sucks.
Hey Tim!
Stumbled across you randomly here on the net, and have had ‘canvas bags’ stuck in my head for three days straight now.
You fucking rule mate! When are you coming to Denmark?
-Daniel
