Nice video. Did you film this on your toaster?

[TheVimtoMoustache]

Thanks for the upload

I don't know how you managed to smuggle a box brownie into the venue but well done.

Next gig you go to,you might want to consider upgrading to a super 8 cine camera.

If I had a pound for every pixel on this screen I'd had one pound.

@pragmatismnotidealis no you wouldnt, you'd have a halfpenny..and they havent made those in nearly 30yrs.

I was there and I cried laughing. Thanks so much for sharing this.

[eastendthug360]

[antmartainexperience]

I hear he loves it when you record his new material on your camera phone.

This looks like quite a big venue, hope lee isnt selling out!!

[lakshmimittal]

@greyreview And what if he is!

@greyreview

this was the venue was the scarboroughopenairtheatre [dot com]

But it was certainly not the capacity, more like the centre section. Probably no more there than would be at the forthcoming event in Leeds which should be attended.

@greyreview The term 'sell out' is used way too often and the idea of 'selling out' is mostly hot air. An artist can be true to themselves and have mass appeal. If you're one of those people who hate a comedian for playing to more than 20 people or a band for playing anything larger than a basement, you need to ask yourself "Am I all surface and no substance?"

[greyreview]

@KangoTV Stewart lee often mentions how he prefers doing stand up in smaller venues as he feels he can connect with the audience as he knows that what he is saying will not be taken at face value whereas if he was playing a big stadium he would have to dumb down his comedy to appeal to the big audience. Maybe watch one of his routines before replying to my comment.

[KangoTV]

@greyreview So your sell out comment was ironic which I stupidly took at face value? Either way I've enjoyed some of Lee's comedy and if intimacy is the path he wants to take, fair play to him. Good to have variety. But I do have a nagging suspicion about the clever-cleverness of his followers. There are other intelligent comedians in the world who play to big crowds and don't dumb it down one bit. So why has it been decided that Lee is so special?

[greyreview]

@KangoTV No my comment wasn't Ironic, I said that stewart lee has said he prefers doing smaller gigs to people who know he is joking, and lee is probably my favourite comedian is because he doesn't have to swear, prance about the stage and talk loudly and fast to make people laugh, and he can back up his comedy with his own intelligence, that's all
