I wonder what Graham Chapman would have thought of this

[joedaniel201]

I think Graham's bobbing paper head is whistling along, peering from behind bouncing paper clouds... ;-) Seriously, this is a testament to the enduring charm & timelessness of Graham's vision - Eric's done more to immortalize Python than any of the former Flying Circus members - WAY TO GO, ERIC!

I just found out that the DVD of the one-time performance in London's Albert Hall will be released on June 8, 2010 - look for trailer on YouTube using key words "NOT THE MESSIAH TRAILER" -JD

I love how his voice raises in pitch when he says "Don't grumble," haha, just like the original.

Also gotta love how people start whistling in time with the song XD

I went to this show. Eric Idle is so awesome and sexy and talented! This play/opera was so wonderful, the whole cast, especially the soloists were awesome. Eric is my Idol!!!
