Great fun, have seen Johns act many times and it never gets old.

Circumstances meant that John had to perform solo without his band; nevertheless it was a most entertaining evening.

Still fresh and funny after forty years. Highly recommended for anyone's bucket list. You have to see Otway at least once in your life.
