Review : Gaze: Lovin' Earth Tour 2009

Gaze: Lovin' Earth Tour 2009
Gaze/Laughing Horse Free Festival
Aptly named Gaze (think phonetically), these two musical-comedians are out to save the planet, person by person, song by song. Donning matching grey suits with black ribbons to highlight 'Death of the Earth Awareness Day', the pair look the part and for that matter act the part, but unfortunately too much of the humour in their set derives from their earth-saving angle and not from the comedian's mouth. Their songs are generally good, including the hilarious 'Bomb Iraq', but their spoken material is less consistent. There are some humorous moments in and amongst other material which isn't bad, but similarly isn't funny. If they managed to improve these links to complement their comical style and charisma, they might achieve more success.
Laughing Horse @ Meadow Bar, 6 - 17 Aug, 10.15pm (11.15pm), free, fpp53.
