“I'm a lucky man to pursue my hobbies for a living,” he said.
Wilson will perform at Hexham Bowling Club on February 27.
The audience can expect his usual charisma, “DILLIGAF” attitude, and politically incorrect humour, in an unscripted performance delivered with his usual upbeat larrikin style that many would remember well from the ‘80s and ‘90s.
“I love touring. It is a constant evolvement [sic] of what you do,” said Wilson. “It's not scripted, it's not rehearsed. Although some songs I sing every night, I still get my jollies off singing them.”
After 35 years and 19 albums in show business, Wilson has seen what he describes as a politically correct or PC movement evolve and, in his opinion, it is smothering free thinking.
“They don't want you to think for yourself. Comedians' these days are so sanitised, it is sickening. It is so sanitised, they smell of Dettol. I don't give a f--- about [offending], I balance PC with common sense.”
Tickets to see Wilson in Hexham, available from the venue or calling 4964 8079, cost $55. The Examiner has one double pass to give away to the show which starts 8pm. To win, send your name and contact number in an email titled “Kev” to portstephens@fairfaxmedia.com.au. The winner will be notified by February 20.
