Anybody lucky enough to get tickets to this? Looks like it was announced today and sold out in no time.

edit: It was sold out. Now standing room only available at $251 each plus fees.

Was just coming to post that. On sale at 3 pm. Apparently he showed up to Rudyards two nights ago to an open mic night and just started practicing new material to an audience of next to zero that suddenly filled up once word on the street got around that he was there.

edit: Looks like tickets are only available at the box office now and he's doing a third show tomorrow night. Some interesting background on why:

Show last night was a lot of fun. Mo Amer was one of the openers and he was amazing. Dave was wonderful. Talked a bit about reaction to Sticks and Stones. Definitely mentioned Daphne (who if you don't know is transgender, was prominent in the last special and recently killed herself). Was timely on recent events with a hilarious bit on Greta Thunberg.


Could tell he was trying out some material and was a scripted set all the way through. Most obviously in that he didn't have a classic ending. Was finally just like, 'well I guess I'm done do you guys have anything you want to talk about?'

One really drunk girl was heckling him in a way that was just sad and stupid until she was escorted out. He was very funny in his responses but at no point was viscous or mean when he could have easily tore her apart.

Great experience in an incredibly small venue.

Just seeing this thread, but I heard he popped into an open mic at Rudyard's pub while he was in town. Would kill to have been there for that.

Yeah I mentioned that above. Saw a guy on twitter post a photo and said he riffed for almost three hours to a basically empty bar until people heard about it and started filing in.

Didn't know about the San Antonio shows last week. So did this guy just move to Texas or what? And when are the Dallas dates?!

Oh sorry, guess I scrolled past your comment in my rush to post.

I've seen some empty rock shows there (including Drive By Truckers way back when), and it would be incredible to see Chapelle in a setting like that.

*if you're in a city he's coming to, I'd check for local open mics or venues that he might pop into. He apparently does that a lot.

Saw him in SA. Awesome show, 6 rows from the stage. His command is something to behold.

He still said he's sorry for saying things for...a reason he can't really define....so...I guess he's received his lashings and his slave name from The Almighty Twitter and is now seeking redemption by pretending that what he said was somehow an accident -- or wrong.
