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…

You could be very funny but I haven’t seen enough evidence yet.
Hey Tim when are you comming to Brasil?!
You have a punch of fans here who would love to see you live on stage…….well, one can only hope..someday rigth?!?
Love your work, congrats!!
Tim, are you Edinburghing this year?
Would be nice.
I loved the Skeptic’s podcast. It was very good. You keep giving me things to start listening to, and whilst I love it there’s just not time in the day. Anway, t’was good. x
I have not enjoyed comedy music so much since Tom Leher and Spike Jones after listening to everthing you have on your web site. I learned of you from the Skeptics podcast. This 73 -year-old would gladly buy a cd/dvd if you would just get them printed for North America! Please.
can i keep you…?!
A bigger venue in Geelong, where was it going to be? GPAC is kinda the only place your show could be held. I am so excited because I finally got me ticket so I am definitely going! You should see the advertisements there! So cool!
Tim can you add more dates to your Adelaide Fringe shows! It’s just not fair that they’re sold out already, I mean it was inevitable, but I had to pay car insurance..! So Adelaide needs as much of you as Melb is going to receive..
Unbelievable stuff Tim!!! I just heard you on the Skeptic’s Guide to the Universe podcast and was blown away by your song, “If you open your mind too much your brain will fall out.” When are you touring the States? (i.e. New York City, not the rest of this insane country)
I was first introduced to you via the Storm beat poem. Fantastic, absolutely fantastic. As has been said before, swing by America some time, yeah?
San Francisco Needs You!
I am completely in love with all of your work, and may have accidentally got my friend obsessed with canvas bags. We’re coming to see you when you play at Southampton in September… very excited!! MUCH LOVE x
I have one word to say about Drowned……astounding
You are a very Bright Spot in the gloomy prediction era,
THANK YOU !!
amazed,stunned,flabberghasted (personally my favorite pick). i think you should definitely ponder about coming to germany one day. i might then be there with that big poster saying ‘ok if you start to play me and my friend will possibly dance in a weird manner and show our…no wait.’
i like your work and your ‘on-stage-personality’ a lot.
thanks for being.
o-la what up sucka. you should come to missouri or new mexico. just about my whole family like your songs and stuff. well email me.
Hey Tim! it’s bo burnham.
i just found out that i’m going to be doing a show during the last week of the melbourne comedy festival.
hopefully i’ll see you around.
good luck with everything.
Always gutted you don’t do a gig in Nottingham, Tim. Always x
I have never loved music comedy so much in my life and after hearing ‘Inflatable You’ last year I can’t help but listen to your music. I can’t wait until September because I’m going to York to watch you perform.
Hi Tim, I’ve put your video on my blog/site, just because I like it lots. :) I think you have some more Dutch fans… Cheers, H.
Hi. Just wondered if Two Fists One Heart is out in the UK this year?? Just saw the trailer. Get you holding the pads!! Good form!! Film looks great. Might make me cry as was forced to quit boxing due to my bad heart. Would happily take you on the pads anyday though!!
Come to Boston, PLEASE!
Come to Toronto!!!! It can be a vacation and work!
I thought all you guys might be interested in the ‘Two Fists One Heart’ trailer. (I found it after the comment about it below.) It looks good. x http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSaJkEnC6aI

Bo Burnham will be at the Melbourne Comedy Festival too? Ah, damn geography! Want to be there, too. :(
Much love for you, Tim.
Yay!!!!!!! Scottish dates!!!! Super happy :D x
I second that – hurray for Scottish dates, I knew you wouldn’t forget us Tim! And thanks for coming to Dunfermline – a mere 15 minute walk from my house, rather than the usual planes, trains and automobiles I have to use to come to a gig. You’re welcome to pop in for pre-gig tea and cake – I make excellent caramel shortbread :D
I will be seeing you on the 18th September!! So excited I got these. Will have to remember waterproof make-up.
Row D centre stalls :D will get to stare at your awesomeness close up.
Yay!! Scottish dates :)
This makes me happy, excited, thrilled, elated, et cetera…
xx
hey!! you are a master of music, keep up the good work. are you comming to canada?
Tim, you are amazing. I found some videos of your music on Youtube, and I was hooked… Brilliant lines, insane comedy and stunning music… I’m glad I found this. Keep up the work. I’d love to come see you play soon, I’m just going to have to save up methinks.
Heard your interview on the S.G.U., was intrigued and checked you out on youtube. I spent half the night and several beers listening and loving your work. I live in central Michigan and would like to see your show live. Let me know when you are coming to the U.S. again.
Thanks Dave
I was recycling cardboard/paper the other day with my boy friend…we started to sing Canvas Bag, loudly! Singing reli makes recycling funnier. Love your stuff Tim xox
Hey Tim, PLEASE just spend a few seconds in thinking about giving a concert in Vienna some day (or maybe some place that one could reach by car from Vienna)- you have a real fan-community here and I´d promise to buy at least 15 tickets.. people in Austria need to laugh too!
No serious- why only concerts in english-spoken countries? We do understand you. Well, at least we believe to do so…
Thank you so much for making me and my people laugh and enjoy the great beat you have on your piano!
U neva wear shoes lmao cuz u cnt get them to match your outfit….:P haha! go to topman or river island n get some black pumps lmao! that will sort u out lmao!
Yes! Reading Hexagon! I’ll be there :D
Greetings from Estonia!
I discovered you for myself just a while ago but I must say that you have the… what do you call it? umph? Anyways I could talk about how idiotically genius your music is for days but that won’t make the world a better place, now will it? All I can say is that keep up the good work etc. and I’ll try to make the world a better place by spreading the word of TIM.
And a wee bit of Estonian to spice things up: “Kui sa otsustad kunagi ka Põhja-Euroopasse tulla, siis ürita ka Eestist läbi põigata, or else… ” ^^
Tim can you tell me when the St Albans and Brighton tickets go on sale?
Cheers
Nick
“If I Didn’t Have You” expresses so concisely what my husband has been trying to tell me for years (20)!! Thank you, thank you.
Hey Tim… Love all your songs… Hilarious… How come your not performing in Liverpool, England?
Come to plymouth we are diein to see you down here in the south west, i know lads of tim minchin fans around here we all realy want 2 see u!
Tim… you rock! I’m looking forward to your next visit to the USA, which I hope will bring you somewhere near where I live, because I’d love to see you live. You’re clever, smart, talented, funny, have a great voice, and play piano far better than Sir Elton John. Best of luck to you and wishes for continued success (and then some)!
*nods in approval like a wise old chinese man*
Hey Tim, I’m writing from an internet cafe on a Thai island. I’m from England and I’m this far to seeing you play in Australia! I bet you can’t find another fan who is travelling this far to see you play!
See ya soon Tim!
M A T T
xx
YUS!!! Aberdeen baby =] REALLY excited… WOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Keep up the good wurk =] lovveeeeeee xxxxxxxx
Tim, I recently learned of you from the SGU podcast. For that, I am most grateful to the SGU! Storm is a work of art that was (and is) badly needed. If You Open Your Mind is brilliant. Please make it to Ann Arbor, Michigan!!!
HEY TIM!!! I am hopefully coming to see you in Leicester on Thursday but struggling to get tickets at the minute because of some promo code or something ( i’m not good with computers so i’m clueless MAS) hopefully there’s tickets left cause i’m full of excitement because seeing you live will be amazing i’m sure! I hope your meeting people after??? that will be great and fill me with even more excitment!! love to you Tim x-x-x
Hey, I am so excited that you’re coming to Newcastle! Hope I can get tickets as you are amazing! Love you and your work, rock on! x
Tim have just found out you are in Bristol on 3 Oct which is my birthday I’ll see you there
I just discovered you — and you’re BRILLIANT (especially your clowning of pseudoscience). Come back and do some more shows in the U.S.! We’ve finally emerged from our 8 year mini-Dark Age…
Love your work Tim. I got pointed in this direction after hearing you on the SGU with Steve Novella.I am not going to argue with any body any moor Ill just play them Storm and for 10 minutes Ill just shut the fuck up.
hi tim, i really wanted to go to your show in adelaide. i looked on the ticket website about a week ago both were sold out.but i might see if i can come after the show just to meet ya, p.s i love you!!
Hey Tim…Recently saw your DVD and am so gutted i missed you perform at the Frog and Bucket in Manchester. Am currently doing an MA in Creative Writing poetry and love your use of alliteration and rhyme. Your work is amazing and me and my house mates Paddy and Emma are checking the website everyday so we can hopefully come and see you in Salford. Keep up the Cracking work. Hope to see you soon!
Amy Kathryn
Finally an extaordinarily talented comedian comes to Dublin! I adore your music and your uniqueness; truly an inspiration. Keep up the good work, can’t wait to see you in September!

I’m so excited for tomorrow cause i managed to get tickets for Leicester yay! i’m coming with my mum and brother (a little family outting to see you hehe) it should be interessting as my mum doesn’t like it when comedians swear but forgave you last time so you might be alright MAS! and my brother hasn’t seen anything live before! can’t wait! hopefully will get to meet you again as i want you to sign my face MAS!!!! lots of love to you Tim x-x-x love Emma x-x-x

I’m thoroughly jealous but manage to suck it up and enjoy your work so much!
Oh! And I realize it’s probably a stretch, but keeping my fingers crossed for a Canada tour!
c:
Hellu.
I think you’re great. So much that I downloaded your DVD So Live instead of downloading it.
Makes her humble pilgrimage towards the Great Tim Minchin.
Genuflects.
While bowed solemly at Tim’s, hopefully not so angry feet, this humble pilgram begs of The Great One to put on more shows in Adelaide.
For until you do the food I eat shall not nourish me, nor the drink I consume quench my thirst, nor the body of my lover satisfy me.
I shall be utterly desolate until I can see You perform, Oh Great One.
I <3 you.
Please come to the USA!
I can’t (ozzie slang for ya)- take my canvas bags, down to the supermarket. As I can’t (there I go again) find any on the link on your shop page (devistation).
(P.S. looking forward to your Brissie powerhouse shows!!!)
Please, we beg you, please come to the U.S.!!!!!! we’re not as bad as we used to be, we have Barack Obama now! we’re slowly cleansing ourselves of Bush, and we’re bringing our canvas bags to every store we go to!..just to be safe might want to stay out of texas (not that all of texas is bad, some of it is quite nice, but well y’know), by the way we’re from california, PLEASE COME HERE! come run on the beach with no shoes on with us! barefeet rock!
hey tim, great show last night (12th feb) hope all is well
love dangerous bear (reece with the weird hair)
Skeptics Guide to the Universe podcast was great. You and I both put a label to our skepticism by listening to Steve and the gand. I can’t wait to catch your show now! I’m a new fan
Great show last night :-) xx
Delighted to see you made the cousin’s Christmas Present come true and you’re appearing in Dublin BUT
;;;;;
It’s not in the UK you know!
*much misplaced patriotic ire in the pants*
wow. the show last night was absoluty amazing. just wow
Saw Tim at De Montfort Hall in Leicester, without a doubt my favourite gig i’ve ever seen. And thats not loose praise, i’ve seen Bill Bailey, Lee Evans, Eddie Izzard among many others. The only disappointment with the show was that I didn’t hang around after the show to meet Tim :( He could’ve signed my canvas bag!!
Can’t wait till he tours back my way
Hey Tim!! last night’s show was amazing! (12th feb)! Rock on cradle of filth!! oo and i hope your bum’s ok after want sounded like a painfull landing on to the stage MAS! I don’t mean to smirk especially if it did indeed hurt in which case aww bless!(hugs)! Anyway it was an amazing show i’m in pain from laughing so much, and thank you for coming out after the show it was great to have a quick meet and greet!! hope your tour in Australia goes well, and see you on the 23rd of October (the day before my birthday!) well i won’t see you but you no what i mean MAS!! lots of love to you Tim love Emma x-x-x
Hi Tim,
Just wanted to say the show (yesterday, Leicester) was genious! I would go as far as to compare your playing with ooh, er, Elton John?!! ;-)
Seriously loved it though and hope to catch another live show in future! I am now officially a loyal fan…
Jenna xx
hey
It is completely gutting reading these amazing reviews and i guess i just don’t know where to put this. Sounds like the gig went great =]. I had my tickets and with some friends were all cramped up in the car but the snowy and accident filled roads made it impossible. Was so hyped.
While i understand this is very unlikely, is there anything that can be done? i.e. to be used for a future gig
all the best
love your so live dvd
Fantastic show at the Leicester Comedy festival last Thursday! Who ARE ‘Cradle of Filth???????’
You are a great singer. I loved everyone on of your songs i hope you right loads more :]
Vicar Street!!! already counting down the days… 208.
Tim I love your stuff, I think one day you will be even more popular than kittens waking up… but your after seeing your promotional materials i kinda wonder if you are going to sing and play music or pull a rabbit out’ your hat.
Not that I would complain.
I’m so happy you are coming to play in Dublin. I saw you at the Melbourne Comedy Festival in 07 and have been telling everyone in Ireland who’ll listen about you since then.
All the best.
I really enjoyed the show at Leicester. All the added actions and dancing in Bears brought a smile to my face x
Hey. I just brought a people carrier for the gang and I!! It is now the Tim Minchin Msytery Machine!! We are having your face sprayed on it!! Kids love it!!
It’s frustrating. I’m an Aussie guy of 17 and live in south east asia, and the only material that I can get of you is on Youtube. Sure, I mean I get comments from other people saying buy your stuff online (i’m rather sure they haven’t met my parents). That’s why my current goal is to try and see you live when I graduate. Haha. I swear you better still be doing stand up when I’m out of Thailand mate.
Hey just wanted to say how much I was laughing my arse off when my sister showed me loads of your songs for the first time – life’s never been the same :D
I cant wait to see you when your in the uk x
I’m 14
am i too young to go and see Tim live?
SOMEBODY HELP!
it will be much appreciated.
your leicester gig was great! had a awesome night thank you. come back…
Hey Tim,
Good Luck for your Australia tour! Hope you have a wicked time and it all goes well – im sure it will! Cant wait for you return when you play at the Hammersmith Apollo in October cos I’ll be there, YAY!!
Best of Luck, Love Lauren x
Hey, your Minchinness! I’ve just been accosted in Ipswich town centre by four nubile young things wanting to know where I got my cool canvas bag with ‘that bloke from Graham Norton’ on it! What was I to tell them – well, other than your name, clearly? Bags are still not available in the UK via your website and your concerts here are over! I did tell them about your forthcoming tour and that Norwich is actually only 45 minutes away by train (Ipswich people have a very stay-at-home mentality and can’t believe there is a whole new world beyond the Ipswich borders)so hopefully you’ll have four new recruits to the Live Experience! Although if I inform anyone else I’m going to have to (a) set up the Ipswich branch of the TM Fan Club and (b) hire coaches to get everyone to the theatre in Norwich as ALL of Beth’s friends want to come already. I’ve already had to split them into 2 groups -one lot are coming to Cambridge and the others will be coming to Norwich once we can buy tickets! Apparently I’m a cool mum for organising it all?!? Not sure if that’s good or bad….
As far as the ME goes, I continue to improve. Since you MADE me get up off my sick bed to see you in Norwich, I have taken my elder daughter and her fiance to see you in Camden – and even though I felt like proverbial s**t all day, it didn’t kill me and strangely, by the end of the concert, I felt better than I have in three long years! Bizarre. So how do I get ‘Essence of Tim’ bottled for other sick people? Maybe I should get my lovely Harley-Street consultant to prescribe So F**king Rock to all ME sufferers? He has now demanded to read my Blog, jokingly entitled ‘Blog of a Middle-Aged Groupie’ or open brackets, (Thanks Tim for reminding me that life is for living!),which is my thesis, if you like, on the fact that laughter may well be the best medicine, but is mostly about me discovering, through you, that I don’t have to suffer with this stupid condition, I can LIVE with it -really live. Due to you I am living again, laughing again and singing again – I didn’t even realise I’d stopped singing until I started again! Thank You is not enough but that’s all I have – so Thank You from the heart of my bottom!
Beth and I also tied in a visit to rellies in Leicester with catching you at the De Montfort Hall – we giggled for two whole days, which is a whole other story! Just think setting alight to my favourite boots (truly I did!), snow and Italian waiters mixed with a little too much Italian lager… :) and it was lovely talking to you after the show. You were right about the t-shirt – I made a different one for one of Beth’s mates and left all four edges of the transfer kind of untidy – by taking the edges off, it gives the shirt more edge – how contrarily kooky is that!?!
Anyway – have a great time in Australia with family and friends. Beth, Lou and I all hope the tour goes really well and that everyone gets a night like the one we had in Camden (still our favourite)! Take care of You and your lovely wife and baby and we’ll see you at the other end!! xxx
Hi Tim,
I somehow just discovered your work yesterday. I’ve had “Only a ginger can call another ginger a ginger” stuck in my head all day.
Thanks for the laughs!
Cheers from Canada.
Hey Tim, I’m from the U.S. and I absolutely love your cynical yet humorous songs. You really have a knack for song writing. Also you are annoyingly good at piano….its hard to watch your fingers sometimes because they move so fast. I love your stuff keep it up :D
P.S. You really should come to the U.S. and perform or at least tour a little. We would love you here.
Hello you :)
Have a safe trip at the end of the week and many fun times in Oz. See you in the Autumn :D
hello ;0)
Your my first, yes first concert !!!
only have 2 wait until October !!
Enjoy
Be honest- this bear competition is a crude mixture of A) finding easy film and B) some kind of crazed power trip. Yes? Yes. But we love it. xxx
Five shows in Brisvegas, *eleven* in Melbourne, two in Wollongong, but you can’t come to Canberra? Boo. :/
Hello. The children would like to know if they can enter the competition to be in the bear video?? Oliver is especially interested as he does Street Dance and believes (as I do!) that he is an amazing dancer!! And, this dynamic 6 year old comes complete with kick boxing moves and a bear costume!!
They are trying convince me to enter as I used to be a podium dancer in my youth – oh so many years ago!! But I will leave it to them, Hannah and Gemma as they are the beautiful people. Ta muchly. Safe trip to Australia – take care x
Thanks Tim glad your coming to scotland

Cunt is the Kazakh word for sugar, which is even funnier than buttocks, maybe. Kazakhstan is a funny place, like the inside of your head, Timothy. Disturbing also, in both regards.
Hello Tim, i just wanted to say hope you have an amazing tour in Australia my lovely, and it goes well which i’m sure it will, and i just wanted to let you no although i’m sure you possibly hear it alot, i thank you for helping me in way because i’ve always had no belief in the hole ‘god’ thing and always bin extremly interessted in science but i haven’t expressed it much as friends and family have either no opinion or quite the opersite. now listening to your lyrics and things you have to say i have taken a more vocal approach to the topics and i love it i have also started reading books on the subject such as the work of Darwin and Kurt Vonagut (i think thats spelt right mas) so before i bore you any more Tim i just wanted to say thank you in a way for opening my eyes i guess to science and non-religion, thank you again Tim, lots of love to you love Em x-x-x
Hello Tim, you’re an awesome man, did you know that? I got only one problem with your tour, and that is that you don’t have any concerts in Norway, and the brief period I will be spending in the UK this year will be during the start of August. Sadly it seems it might be quite some time before I get to see you perform live, but I shall make sure it happens someday. Anyway, I just wanted to say that I love what you have done so far. Keep up the good work.
I wish I could download your albums. Get yourself on iTunes! Everything I’ve heard from you so far is brilliant. You’re a very talented musician, and extremely funny as well. Cheers from the U.S.A.
Hiya Tim,
Looking forward to seeing you at the hammersmith apollo in October! You have an amazing voice, and have me in stitches! Im treating my mum to a seat, shes just moved to Bulgaria and has to fly back again to see you :D
Peace and love from Jolly ol’ London :) xx

Hello Tim. (: First of all, Love you and your Work. I wanted to say you rock. :D Absolute Genius.
Secondly, I’m 15 and I would like to know how old I have to be too get into one of your shows. There is nothing on earth I would rather do than see you live.
Finally, Wahayy!! Got your So F*cking Rock DVD a Few Weeks Ago. ‘Ten foot cock and a few hundred virgins’ is the first song I heard by You and it is still my favourite. Also, ‘F Sharp’ is Really Funny. I Love it!! xD
Keep Rockin’! Much Love. xx

Hi! I’m a new fan. Do you ever tour in the usa? <3
Thank you so muh for coming to newcastle in october
Im getting all of my uni mates to come see you
your gonna be great
Silly (short!) interview on the Perth radio station – glad I was able to catch it! Isn’t technology fun?
All best wishes to your growing family as well. :)
Tim, this has got to stop. I’ve been humming the ‘like a nun needs cock’ bit from the DVD when I’m at work, and am terrified I’m going to start singing it out loud. I teach 4-year-olds. I hope if I get fired you’ll pay my mortgage.
Can’t wait to see your show in October (if I still have an income to buy a ticket)
I cant get happy little africans out of my head. You have ruined me with your fuck off plasma guns!
I hold you responsible for whatever may happen to me in the near future.
Welcome to my show…

I happen to catch some of the interview on RTRFM this morning. What was that R&B parody called? “replaceable you”? and where can it be found?
Tim. I love your stuff! I was using so much download watching your vids on YouTube I simply went out and bought your DVD’s. Now they’re pretty much all that’s playing. Haha. Thanks for the amazing work you do. Completely genius in an amazingly hilarious way. Cheers.
Heard your interview on Nova last night, nice one! Although you deserve a bigger time slot than what you got! Wow your wife is preggers again, congratulations to you both. Hope all is going well in Oz, good luck with the tour. Hope your well.

WOO HOO. I just got my tickets to see you in Glasgow on october 11th. I can’t wait. I literally phoned my friend nikki flixx and screamed down the phone at her that I had got the tickets. yeah!!!
Hey sorry for the crazy message earlier. It must have been all the excitement of having got my tickets 2 c ya in october. Anyway congratulation 2 you are your wife. Also could you bring as much merchandise as poss as im hungry for tim stuff. Btw i think my daughter might be one of your youngest fans. She is four and was singing canvas bag the other day. Its a good day all round X.
bagged my tickets for your show in manchester in september! cant wait for it! brilliant stuff.
Congratulations on your Chortle awards, Mr. Well-Deserving! :)
I’m going to see you in Aberdeen (october…12th)to be honest, i’m really hoping that you play um.. ‘Rock and Roll Nerd’ because, i will cry, a lot.. even though I know that it’s supposed to be funny.. which it is, but it’s sad because you know the whole ‘Stairway’ thing just kind of makes me cry but, I feel as if I may be rambling… so I shall say goodbye and see you in Aberdeen in October :) xxxxxx
Tim! im seeing you in brisbane on the 18th of march
i reallly realllllyyyyyy want to get a photo with you, give me one? yeah?
haha, im really excited.
im deffinetly buying a canvas bag, to take to the supermarket :)

How about going to Holland? There are lots of people out here wanting to see you live.
Your music is awesome, Amazing performance.
I’d like to see you in Sweden, You should get a gig there.
Would be awesome. Take care!
Hello!!
Not only is my son a genius, today he asked for piano lessons!!! I was overwhelmed with pride!!! Congrats on Chortle awards n news about the forth coming arrival of new small person! Only another 2 and you’ll catch up with me!! L xx
hi tim the names owen.seriusly love your music your funny as balls. u should come to Ireland some time youd be a big hit here :)
You are a God to people like me who prefer odd entertaining lyrics instead of MTV and TV commercial’s ”popular” shit. I wish I had your singing voice and piano skills although I doubt I could amount to that much. Anyhow, I just wanted to congratulate such an outstanding artist for makeing my day more entertainable and for makeing it so far even though not beeing a papparazi freak, a weird religious fanatic, an attention W***e or any other kind of insanity that commonly follow fame. When I get married I will be requesting you as my Wedding Singer ^^
Many congratulations on the Chortle awards! Yeah yeah, I know, I’m late, but I’ve had to put aside my increasingly-worrying Tim-fan side of me cause I’ve got these strange little exams cropping up. Besides, you’re half the world away! Anyway, the awards were well deserved and I was decidedly delighted when I saw that two had gone to you. You’re moving on up, Mr Tim! xx
Thou art a legend! Except your not dead….so i guess your just really really good. :)
We met breifly a few times last August when i was working for “the best boobs in the buisness”….quote from you. :P
Anyway, hopeing to see you live again this year!
Greetings from Nowray Tim! Just wanted to say hi! Discovered you a few month’s ago on YouTube, and I’m now the proud owner of your albums (legaly bought!) – and maybe soon some canvas bags :P
The low point of last year was coming home from a weekend in London, only to find out that you had a show there at the same time, and I didn’t know… The high point of this year, and probably my life, will be seeing your show in Oxford on the 18th October.
Your stuff is amazing!
Tim you’re a legend! Looking forward to seeing you at the apollo!!!
Tim, dear. Your website keeps changing, and yet in your merch section, you’ve still got a picture of the old canvas bags, which aren’t available online anyways. It makes me sad. Especially since I can’t find the bag Yvette got signed for me at Edinburgh. Darn it.
xoxoxo
I have been addicted to your performances since I first listened to ‘Storm’ on Youtube. My favorite song is ‘Not Perfect’, You are probably my favorite artist, up there with The Beatles. I had to pirate ‘Darkside’/’So Rock’ just to listen to some more songs (sucks being in Canada eh?) Im not sure how to buy them… But I would of If I knew how.
Good shit mate! Fantastic. :)
