Australian comedian and songwriter (and poet and composer and philosopher, I guess) Tim Minchin played the Auckland Town Hall last night as part of the Auckland Arts Festival/Te Ahurei Toi O Tamaki.
I find him so horrific - went earlier this year. Clever musician of course but the music is soulless and naff.
Horrific is probably a strong word haha
I would imagine that enjoying his music would rely on enjoying his comedy, which I do. Do you find Minchin funny separate from his music?
Nope - almost not at all. But I tried. And he’s smart, I’ll give him that. It just really grates with me.
I walked in already a fan, but otherwise your review captured what I experienced that evening. Thanks!
I have seen him live twice and couldn’t get to this show but I’ll never be bored of his genius
