Qualmpeddler Starring... Bill Bailey	Qualmpeddler Live at Hammersmith Apollo, London UK rapturously received throughout Australia, New Zealand and the UK, Bill recorded this terrific new show at his local, Hammersmith Apollo. Furious and hilarious, Qualmpeddler takes on the coalition, popular culture, social media, celebrity and cheap shark diving. No show of Bill's is complete without his musical wizardry, and there is casual brilliance in the religious dubstep, German folk-metal, a bible-guitar, the Match of The Day theme as Jewish folk clapping and a show-stopping reggae version of Downton abbey. Plus an extraordinary tale of owl rescue.	2013	93	Shipping If outside UK add £1 dvd
Dandylion Mind Starring... Bill Bailey	Dandylion Mind Featuring Bill's trademark musical interludes, observations and stories of the road, Dandelion Mind will be based loosely on the theme of doubt (or will it?), as we follow Bill from his real-life saga of being trapped by the ash cloud, (Iceland ?) to his barely contained rants about celebrity, TV, creationism and Michael Winner. He demonstrates new instruments, both ancient and modern, he sings an internet love song, a lament about punk heroes, Iranian hip-hop, and plays a mean folk-bouzouki. Thomas the Doubter gets a new look, and Darwin’s curious obsessions and the myth of intelligent design are all worked over in Bailey’s own surreal style. He revisits the music of his youth, with a brand-new French Disco re-working of Gary Numan’s hit, Cars, played in his own inimitable way, and maybe some Wurzel-based remixes of classic German techno.	2010	50	Shipping If outside UK add £1 061210
