And now for something completely different.
Monty Python member Eric Idle just announced that he’s embarking on a West Coast ‘Always Look on the Bright Side of Life, Live!’ tour this September.
The musical one-man show — written and performed entirely by Idle — will feature never before seen sketches, original songs, jokes, stand-up comedy, humorous wisdom that comes with being a living legend and “exactly one fart joke.”
He also promised “special guests, a Virtual Band and some of my favorite hitherto unseen clips,” on X, formerly known as Twitter.
If seeing the beloved 81-year-old Tony and Grammy Award-winner (for “Spamalot”) live sounds like the show for you, tickets are available to be scooped up as soon as today.
Fans can purchase tickets for all upcoming shows on sites like Vivid Seats; the official on-sale is Friday, June 14.
Vivid Seats is a secondary market ticketing platform, and prices may be higher or lower than face value, depending on demand.
They have a 100% buyer guarantee that states your transaction will be safe and secure and will be delivered before the event.

Eric Idle biography
In 2018, Idle dropped his best-selling autobiography “Always Look on the Bright Side of Life: A Sortabiography.”
Over 292 pages, The Rutles member reflects on the meaning of his own life (that’s a “Meaning of Life” reference, thank you very much) taking us from his time at a boarding school as a child to his successful comedy career where he ended up befriending George Harrison, David Bowie, and Robin Williams.
That’s not all, though.
“Always Look on the Bright Side of Life” features Idle anecdotes from big names like Mike Nichols, Mick Jagger, Steve Martin, Paul Simon, Lorne Michaels, and, of course, his fellow Monty Python members.
