However, his 'insane' singing was nearly overshadowed, not by an unruly audience member or technical fault, but by his own jokes.
Calls have since been growing for the 'Someone You Loved' singer to pick up the mic for a bit of stand-up instead.
One TikTok user took to the platform to share the opening of Capaldi's gig.

The set opened with a picture of Capaldi, his hair wrapped in a towel, shades on and throwing up a peace sign with his hand.
Set to 'Boys Are Back In Town' by Thin Lizzy of course.
Another video shows Capaldi calling himself a 'lazy c**t' which is met with howls of laughter from the audience.

The singer continues: "I spent the majority of lockdown masturbating. At no point did I feel like I should take my hand off my penis."
Capaldi then joked that his mum was in the audience, before announcing he would be performing 'all of the old s***t' because of having no new music.
Videos online of Capaldi's performance have amassed hundreds of thousands of views and thousands of likes, with fans of the singer having flocked to posts to commend his comedic talent.
