Two shows each night, anyone going? Still some tix left. Could be great or could be a disaster.

yeah, i just meant disaster due to protesters/hecklers. i'm sure he'll be funny.

I'll be there on Wednesday. I have no idea what I'm going into.

Have read some reports online where he's killin it. Comes out and addresses the jerking off stuff right out the gate.

I hope the pendulum is starting to turn back the other way on this outrage at comedy.

I heard the Rosanne and Andrew Dice Clay are fixing to start touring as well. Should be interesting.

Louis killed. Openers were great too.

Went last night to the early show- it was pretty great. Louis is as great as he ever was, and from where I was sitting there was absolutely no heckling about the incidents- there might have been on the other side of the room. He did come right out and address the issues, and seamlessly transitioned into his routine.

At one point during the MC's opening act, wife and I noticed Louis standing in the back watching the guy on stage off to the side. It looked like we were watching a live version of his old show on FX when they'd show scenes at the Comedy Cellar.

The guy who went on right before Louis was quite possibly the worst comedian I've ever seen live- Greg Hahn. I'll acknowledge that it's just not my style, but it just wasn't funny

They switched order for the late show, Greg Hahn went second, then Mike, then Louis. Greg Hahn isn't really my style either, but I didn't think he was that terrible. I laughed a little. I thought Mike was funny.

The couple across from us at our table, the woman laughed super loud at both openers, got drunk and literally slept through all of louis' set.

I saw Aziz here in Austin a few weeks ago and I don't think he handled his situation all that well. I thought his whole set was really awkward and the opener he picked was a really poor choice too.

Glad to hear the rest of CK's set was good. I'm curious about what he had to say about everything. Anything more you can add?

at least at the late show, it was just part of his opening joke.....something about he used to play arenas and now he's stuck doing clubs again. doesn't understand why there was any issue, he's just really good at THAT and wanted to show people.

I like this over-intellectualized analysis:

Read the joke. It's not that funny by itself. Goes to show the importance of delivery.

I play Monopoly with my kids. That's really fun. My 9-year-old, she can totally do Monopoly. The 6-year-old actually totally gets how the game works, but she's not emotionally developed enough to handle her inevitable loss in every game of Monopoly. Because a Monopoly loss is dark. It's heavy. It's not likewhen you lose at Candy Land, "Oh, you got stuck in the fudgey thing, baby! Oh well! You're in the gummy twirlios and you didn't get to win." But when she loses at Monopoly, I gotta look at her little face and I go, "OK, so here's what's going to happen now, OK? All your property, everything you have, all your railroads, your houses, all your money that's mine now. You gotta give it all to me. Give it to me, that's right. And nono, you can't play anymore, see, because even though you're giving me all of that, it doesn't even touch how much you owe me. It doesn't even touch it, baby. You're going down hard. It's really bad. All you've been working for, all day, I'm going to take it now and I'm going to use it to destroy your sister.
