First the Moon came out and said he was gonna lead everyone in a countdown to the Boosh Band. Which went something like this "10, 9, Some Numbers, 5, 7, ummm..., 3, 2, 1...THE MIGHTY BOOSH!!!". It was really funny, especially because everyone was doing the normal countdown and the moon threw everyone off.
After that Noel & Julian (in character as Vince and Howard) made their grand entrance...In true Boosh style Noel rode out on a GIANT silvery ship (The HMS Mighty Boosh) while Julian was in an inflatable dinghy that he had to blow up himself.
After that they went into "Future Sailors."
They then got into an argument and said hello to the crowd:
Noel talking about Gary Numan segued neatly into "Electro Boy." After that, Noel did "I Did A Shit On Your Mum!"
Which Julian followed with a Jazz Version, including some scatting.
Lester Corncrake (Rich Fulcher) then joined him onstage for a hilariously bad jazz duet.
After that, OLD GREGG (!!!) sneaked up on Howard and had a long (and hilarious!) conversation.
He then brought the Funk out so that he could sing a funk song with Howard...
...and the funk squirted him in the face with his Funk Juice.
They then began to sing the Old Greg/Mangina song, which sounds like this:
Old Gregg came into area in front of the stage to pass out his watercolors, and I didn't get one but he came within a few feet of me...(Even as Old Gregg he's GORGEOUS!).
Of course he then could get back up on the stage, and had to be lifted in a rather hilarious manner by a security guard.
After that they played "Mutants" (with a giant squid onstage, of course!).
...After which the Funk was reveale to be Bob Fossil in costume, and Fossil did his rap and had a dance-off with Har Mar Superstar.
After that, Howard and Vince came back on stage and Howard told Vince that he got a telegram informing him that Naboo had fallen into an ostrich pit and been killed.
So they started singing Naboolio (with Bollo) in tribute:
At a pause in the song, Naboo came in riding an ostrich. (Apparently they got on really well).
So they finished off the song in a celebratory manner, adding bits of "Bouncy Bouncy" and "Soup" into it.
The ostrich then thought that Vince was an ostrich because of his feathery cape and tried to get off with him.
After that, everyone left the stage and the Moon did a song. Basically it was a variation on his song from the show, but then he rotated around and when he came back he had sunglasses on, and he started singing "99 Problems" by Jay-Z, which was one of the funniest things I've ever seen. He changed some of the lyrics as well. ("I Got 99 Problems...4 of them are catering...WHOOOAAAAHH Be Ba Ba Ba!!!")
Julian then came on as Rudi, and sang "The New Sound" and "Isolation." At one point his fake teeth fell out and he worked it into the song before picking them up and putting them back in.
Then out came his arch nemesis, THE HITCHER!!!
He sang "Eels" of course, complete with a conga-eel-line, pyro and a large inflatable eel (which Noel slipped off of and hurt himself slightly).
After that, they left the stage and Rich Fulcher came out in character to lead a Bingo Game (like in the episode "Nanageddon"). After several other numbers, he called out "6-6-6...thats all the sixes!!!" and Noel and Julian came out dressed as old women to sing "Nanageddon" and "Charlie".
At this point there was even more pyro and they even had confetti, streamers and FIREWORKS!!! It was incredible.
So after all that, it took forever to figure out exactly where (and in which car park) my parents were waiting for me. When I finally did get to the car, there were two English guys from Essex who wanted to know if we could give them a ride home to Maidstone, which was on our way. So they piled into the back of the car, and then of course we got lost several times on our way there because there were hardly any road signs for Maidstone. It ended up being quite an adventure!
Saturday was the most amazing day and I wish every day could be like that. The Boosh make me very, very happy. :O)
