Dave Chappelle "Comic Strip Live" (2/27/09) AUDIO RESTORED
I wanted to check out this epic four hour set by Dave Chappelle but the buzzy noise audio was unbearable. I decided to do some restoration for my own personal listening. It worked out well so I thought I would share it. Lots of great content over at the Comic Strip Live KZhead page. Subscribe to them today! / @comicstriplive

I was at this show! Was visiting New York on a University trip. It was my 21st Birthday this night too! Can't believe it was 10 years ago!
He mentions me at 2:08:43 😂
Lucky you. Very jealous
Anna Dickson really cool! Did this moment change your life course? Weird question ik...but I feel like this moment was life changing.
Anna is an illuminati agent typing this generic comment to throw the scent off the trail After this show they got Dave Chappelle and cloned him for disclosing too many secrets
You are so lucky!!! Cherish that gift!
It never fails. Fall asleep with KZhead playing and you will end up here.
Holy shit someone else?!
.....and I awoke to this. Soooooo true!
OMG! Yessss! Lol
Everyday 😂
Best....... Alarm..... Ever........
the lad who taped this... is a national treasure !
He isnt even telling jokes, he is just being himself, it just happens to be that he is extremely funny. He’s just talking. This is the most genius set I have ever seen a comedian do…and 4 hrs WTF?
jajaja
Not to mention this dude had been cancelled and then all the other comedians on the card just wanted to sit down and watch his set instead of actually performing themselves.
@@GhengizKanye lol really? He was cancelled? 😅😂
@@kasjen3594 yes
Chappelle is a GD'd LEGEND...he mever fails to lift me up & put a genuine smile on my face. I REALLY need that sometimes... This is the set where he didn't have cigarettes, so a lady gave him hers (they didn't want him to leave the set he was "crashing", including the slotted comic, lol) & he "included" her as part of his act so she could smoke inside in the crowd too, isn't it? Dude's pure class, all the way - that schnikt prettymuch NEVER happens, esp'ly these days~
Hearing Dave say he'll leave in 25 minutes, and then seeing the video has an hour and a half left is hilarious 😂
Exactly what i was thinking
“3 years from now i’ll be a has been” 12 years and he’s won Emmies, Grammies and a mark twain award for comedy 👏🏾
Three years later he WAS a has been. He's now made a comeback. Mostly from white clapping hands.
Greg in our community he was never a has been. Black talking mouths never left this brother.
@@dianeross4522 Your community? What does that word mean to you. It used to mean people who live together.
@@dianeross4522 Facts. We Never Stopped Fuccin With Dave 🤷🏾
@Greg P. As if your not aware 1. a group of people living in the same place or having a particular characteristic in common 2. a feeling of fellowship with others, as a result of sharing common attitudes, interests, and goals. So what I mean is all of the above.
He did a 6hrs set in San Diego... all night til morning... Comedian Genius!!!
Wow really?
Deborah Wright no
where’s that video😐
He mentioned it
Wow dave is my all time fav this guy i would swear invented comedy!!!!
People were so mad about the Netflix special he did but Dave always spits truth and shares wisdom. He’s a master storyteller and incredible philosopher.
I mean some of what he says is truth and wisdom. Some is just paranoid dumb shit.
I feel like people probably don't realize that this is the greatest stand-up comedy set of all time LOL
Have U heard about Brendan Schaub? Hes like x10 times better than Dave... 🙃
@@TrungCyf talmbout bapa, b? Never heard of em
Excuse me...he's fucking good...but he ain't the best ever and he would tell you that too!
@@thethrillofpattaya8404 never said best ever. I said best set ever. Considering his fame + fallout + slow reemergence to then witnessing him completely unhinged going off for several hours and simultaneously addressing all the controversy and whatnot. It's definitely up there for greatest sets all time.
@@hadesmusic1175 Wow! I effed up Bro! My Bad! Still pretty hard to judge a set as the GOAT... know what I mean?
10 years later Joaquin phoenix becomes an award winning act of the decade 😭. Dave knows everything.
Did u see when he said America's gonna be great again, you'll see. That shit was creepy like he knows the future
@booty cheek bandit all in the same 7 mins.
@@TacoPoweredTimeTraveler Simpsons haven't predicted a lot. Most aired after the occurrence
No, this is back when everyone thought Joaquin went crazy! Dave saw through the act! He called it! He knew That was just a publicity stunt!!!
Almost two decades ago, I was at a New York comedy cellar and the surprise guest was Chris rock, and everyone started screaming. He practiced his bit with us a bit and it was lukewarm, but THEN he said he had another surprise and it was Dave Chapelle. Dave did the thing he did here-sat down, lit a cigarette and started telling stories and engaging with the audience. He was light-years funnier than Chris on this night. About half way through it, and by half way I mean an hour and a half in, when we’d been there for FOUR HOURS because of the original comedy show, then Chris, THEN Dave, my then partner and I had to get up and go home. Dave yelled out to us, “hey! Where you going???” And my bf said “back to her place.” And Dave goes “awwww yeah.” Everyone laughed. Never forgot it and I didn’t even appreciate then how smart he was because I was just out of school. Dave Chapelle is a treasure and a profoundly deep thinker. Appreciate him forever.

@@JosephJ-xb1gs ?
Love this. People like him create stories like yours without meaning to. He's like lightning in a bottle
Rhis is hilarious!! Love it!
I saw him in Omaha Nebraska in i think 2006ish. I was high, so i can't remember the year for sure.
We've been blessed to have not one, but three Dave Chappelles in our lifetime... Washington Park busking for change Dave Chappelle Skinny high pitched comedian who made it Dave Chappelle and Raspy, Elder Statesman whose commentary transcends comedy Dave Chappelle. Truly blessed
Which one is your favorite?😂
Clone myfriend
@markwilson422 explain your self
What's incredible is that there are about 3 different channels with the same 3 plus hours of this routine and they all have over 5 million views. This one has like 17 million views. Wow Dave's fans are loyal fans and they can watch anything this man does.
Swiped from my channel of course
This is artistic history
Dave Chappelle is not just a comedian, but a philosopher who analyzes society, and culture.
standrew so... a sociologist? Lol.
@@UknowJow No, sociologists are boring
I’m an analyzer of philosophy culture of the comedian and this is my society
He's not just a comedian or a philosopher. He's also black.
he's a hero.. listen beyond the laughter yes...
They're not attending a show, they're hanging out with Dave.... chillin
So you peeped it too. He ain’t even want them to leave.” Where you going??”.
@@Daddieo can you imagine being one of those morons who walked out early? Man that's like those people who sold their bitcoin when it got to 100 bucks.
Yea I was gonna ask if this is freestyle or something... not the usual quality or anything
wow did you really copy and paste this
Pll3
I'm a hour 19 mins in and you can tell at this time Dave really didn't think it would get any better than this again. Really watch his joke choice, interaction with guests etc. It's beautiful to see how the later years played out.
Brilliantly so.👊
He needed 2 speak 2 regular folk
Couple times a year I get to this point I just don't wanna be bothered and I'm tired of people be up at night staring out the window. And this video always comes back up and the laughs and calm I get watching it always brings me down
We missed out on a decade of prime Dave Chappelle because the industry blackballed him. Never forget how they tried to take America's greatest voice from us.
Black listed*
The true cancel culture.
why?
@@SandraLovesRoses there is this wonderfull new thing called google did you know
Umm except for the fact that he left on his own..... Somehow history is being rewritten to make him some kind of victim instead of a spoiled celebrity who didn't want to honor the contract he willingly signed and walked away on his own....I mean if you don't mind ignoring every single fact of the situation you could say someone other than Dave was making the calls....
“3 years from now I’ll be a has been” 2020: Dave Chappelle is the G.O.A.T.
👍😷
And until 2020 he was a has been.
2021 and still
Patrice is.
@@bigmammaprodontwitter Patrice is the real life goat I see you know your shit 💪🏾
How fortunate can you be to just go to a comedy club to have fun and Dave Chappelle entertains you!!! Priceless 🤩
The millions of ppl who viewed this all the way thru, are the only ppl i can trust😅
This is a beautiful moment that will forever be frozen in time. Dave says "don't take pictures, make memories" and he made a lifetime of memories for a roomful of people. He didn't make a million dollars and didn't want to. He spent time with a roomful of strangers, got to know them, and genuinely connected. Those lucky few share a connection none of us can ever have through a screen. Beautiful.
@Shin Shaman what a strong almost random response.
But still luckily for him Netflix gave him way more than a million years later for "specials" that were just jokes he had laying around haha man is an genius!
What you mean? He worth over a million rn lol
@@sillybears4673 over a million? Yeah WAY over a million. His net worth is like 50 million.
Talking to people with a microphone. Sharing his own views on global events with his own personal spin while engaging with people the whole time. As real, raw, and uninhibited as it gets. Thank you Dave. Thank you.
Stating the obvious. Using electronics to convey nothing of substance. As lacking in insight and uninteresting as it gets. Thank you, Boogz. The Boogerman.
@@gregp103 To each his or her own, sorry his humor doesn't appeal to you.
@@moonmanvic Don't lose any sleep over it.
This should be reserved strictly for TRUE fans.
Underrated comment👌
I’m just glad the world is appreciating him NOW while we still have him…
While he’s still somewhat young too. He still has decades of great material left in him
We don't though. Listen to the difference in his old voice, and new voice. Listen to how he opens his bits. Listen and pay attention carefully. You can tell that they are not the same people anymore. All I will say. Oh, and by the way? Fuck. The. Agency. Yeah...I said it...fuc*ing Satanic< c*ck suckers.
Only comic I’ve seen just interact so positively with an audience without missing a beat. Most comics get pissed... Dave just has a civil chat on stage and still kills it.
actually please watch Andrew Schulz. almost the same style but more on dark humor but the same interaction with the audience. he's up and coming but i love him. hes definitely going to be closely great to Dave.
This is because Dave planned these shows to be this way. He didn't go up with an act in these shows. Comics who craft an act for months or years should get pissed when people in the audience start talking or joining in.
@@miche.5146 yyôiiiiiiiiiiiiìkk
Wow! Laughter in learning. If Dave Chappelle was a college professor his students would never be late or absent. This is classic material.
I've had professors that good, awesome

So wait, topic hopping isn't a good thing? Asking for a friend
@@radnerak Nah this is just for dummies like myself who like to repeat certain bits from the beginning of the subject/joke if I miss them while I'm listening, I don't think anybody is saying this is a bad thing by putting a list here and saying its roughly done cause Chapelle isn't on a strict topic schedule.
god’s work.
You're doing gods work bud ty
3 or 4 specials right there and he's just chilling
This is awesome. Dave didn't book this set he just showed up and just spoke his mind. Legend
Right. No script.
Only Dave Chappele can walk into a place and consume 4 hours of everybodys time like its nothing. This guys is a comic genius. He just vibed w the whole room for 4 fucking hours straight. Legen is an apt word.
Dude the f+++!!!! Was listening to some completely different content and fell asleep. Always wake up like 2:30 into Dave’s set. Just finally watched the last 45 minutes. This KZhead video is the nexus.
Viewing this from the lens of today, 2022… wild to think of how much truth is being said here. And more is coming to light each day
Imagine dave chappelle have a podcast it will be fucking huuuuge i know I'll listen to it non-stop
But where would he go from there ,in Hollywood over exposure and under exposure, can be the end of your career ,it's all about timing and not upsetting the wrong people over the course of your career ,and that's not easy if you cannot diversify ,i am not saying he can not diversify , a podcast would be a bad move for such a world wide well established comedian !!!
@@devogrant2817 i agree
Say goodbye to joe Rogen podcasts
If Joe can do it. Dave can do it.
@@gochillessmith4137 Dave would give too much of his own opinion. Joe is a better interviewer.
This show...man. Got me through tonight with my friend in the hospital...he's ok...and sure lifts my covid spirits. Thank you, Dave!
COVID Spirits ... perhaps you allow politicians, to cause you too much stress. Oh right, that’s what they trying to cause everyone.
He's okay?.....old real dave was the shit!!!!
Respond if your not a political bot
Bullshit
I'm here for lifted spirits during this jacke up time too.
An hour in he's talking about finishing up and getting sushi, then gets on a roll and stays for 2 hours more. Lol, the man is and always will be the G.O.A.T... Who else can rock a 4 hour show off the cuff?
This was the best hidden gem on KZhead for a while
That is the luckiest comedy club audience of the last 20 years at least
yeah... im jealous as hell
And whoever got to see George Carlin and Bill Hicks last set
well, the love comes from both sides
Slightly_Handy I was in his Brixton audience front row 2015. I was graced by him!
That you know of.
Dave has helped distract me from my depression and anxiety so many times. I'm thankful for this video.
Take care and hang in there!
Facts... note to self... laughter is a healer
I feel the same. This video got me through a rough night the first time I came across it
He’s made mine way worse. Guess I’ll go to South Africa
Same
It’s crazy that these bits never get the attention they deserve.
Dave Chappelle, you're a international treasure. Love from Romania,i grew up with your jokes and i love them.
You, sir, did not bomb. That’s one of the luckiest audiences in history/the world.❤️🖤

@@barbaralindsey8777 not about you
It takes a genius to keep a whole group entertained for almost four hours
Agreed!

So much like George Carlin. Smart and funny.
The fact that not even Dave Chappelle knows the Belgian history signifies, that they have the biggest PR win in all of history.
Hardly. This show was filmed in 2009; by now he''s surely well aware of old Leopold's filthy tricks. But yes, the Belgians in this audience got off easy.
I fall asleep to this almost every night.

Those who see this comment (at least 95%) understand that we just caught a gem 💎. Like trying to watch your favorite music artist in the studio. Comedians of his level practice material in comedy clubs and we don’t get to see it. Like this is an even more genuine Dave than we normally see, and I love it. Respect to the 🐐. Shout out to the camera man and the one who posted it.
Ive been watching this for years now. So happy its still here... To think these 35 people got to sit down and have a 1 on 1 with a legend. Wow.
Wow! Never seen this b4! That small crowd was blessed of almost 4hrs of Dave!!!! Can't believe he went on so long!!!! I put this on to laugh my ass off to sleep😂
Dave is trying his best to tell people what’s really going on without getting assassinated.
Jose Ross and still got “assassinated” and or replaced. Like he said America creates an environment where dissenters are needed and when they come out they’re killed then we celebrate them. Seems now they found a way to do it in a sneaky way where we think the real ones are still speaking to us when in our heart we know. There gone. His cousin went on radio to tell everyone he was gone, that he was dead that his family was cloned and everyone dismissed her as crazy. Now she’s dead. Truth is dangerous in this country and he along with many others sacrificed their lives to wake us up. We should be grateful for these people for they knew what was coming for trying to help us. Those they reached could list the ones who tried to get us the truth but were killed or “cloned” like Eminem, Gucci Mayne, Kanye West, Bernie Mac just to barely name a few. It’s a strange time we’re in right now in America
Nate Shull - Stop making us Americans look even more dumb than other countries already think we are. Your comment would only make sense if his “clone” didn’t come back saying the same shit that he was saying before he was “cloned”. Seems like a huge waste of money and resources to clone a person to have the exact same views. 😒
@@kundaliniRaiser AGREED!! strange and frightening!! You said everything I've been saying for years!! Thank you!!

I absolutely love how at the 3 hour mark, he's so connected with the audience... that he just starts to hang out with them, having a good time. this was a special show, and to this day... to say you were at this show is like bragging about a medal.
Were you there? That would have been so amazing to be a part of!
Converge!!!
I was there, best comedy show i've attended to this day. Love watching it again on UTube.
by the three hour mark he should feel married to them.
by the three hour mark you wonder if you should be paying the audience a fee for a psychotherapy session
Dave Chappelle is not only the best stand up comedian ever, but the realest too. Also, his parents and Howard University taught him well. Hes's "the man who knew too much.". "You gotta read between the lines..." - Chappelle in "Killin' Them Softly".
This is so epic. If you have ever experienced the NYC comedy scene you would understand that whatever was going on this night was “way out of the norm.” He keeps talking to Sherod who is Sherrod Small who was probably the MC that night. Dave is riffing… i’ve seen him many times… but never like this. It was the height of his fame so they probably just didn’t give an “f”… but seriously just so amazing this was preserved. A true comedy genius.
To call this the height of his fame is a clear misunderstanding of where the dude was at in his career…. This is easily towards the lowest he ever was aside from counting the time before he had any success.
Dave is a philosopher that just so happens to tell jokes.
Philosophy is a joke.
Vernon Huffman was just sitting here saying I see what he doin he’s a genius comedy is the best communication and the best manipulation

He wants everyone in the crowd to hear his jokes and have a good time, it makes him sad if they want to leave. So pure.
Fast forward, 2023... His capacity to see through the BS and tie the invisible knots is amazing. A truth- Teller and eye-opener. The things he talked about in 2009 have just gotten magnified over the past couple years, but back then he must have seemed almost prophetic. A master of his trade, in the best tradition of it. 👏
Spot on assessment. You would think more people would be catching on by now. Pretty sobering when you think about it. All the best. God Bless
A genius that can make me laugh 😃 I knew he was a star when I saw him for the first time in the movie "The Nutty Professor " , I've watched all of his specials and of course "Chapelle's Show ", I laughed so hard and still laugh today 😆 . I love that he educates while he is entertaining wished for teachers like him .
Damn I’m jealous of the audience. They literally just hung out for 4 hours talking shit between themselves!
Accurate!
I'd pay some good money for that!!!

This type of “show” is a gift to those people, you can’t buy tickets for a show like this unlike specials…This was basically a holy grail show for a private club with Dave, he was funny as hell, making jokes and you got to actually just talk to him and he talked with you! I would have paid 10x a ticket price of one of his specials to be apart of one of these small crowd bullshitting nights…Worth it’s weight in gold and not many people got the privilege…

Five seconds in and I'm laughing my ass off. Chappelle is pure talent.
Dave is the G.O.A.T. There have been comedians that are close as funny as Chappelle, but only a select few have had the insight and intelligence that separates him. Even fewer have done it all while trying to keep an underlying message that is kindhearted and positive. He does this all without compromising his faith beliefs and morals. On top of it all, his comedy isn't watered down by his "morals of the story" it is actually enhanced. Richard Pryor was also a master at this, and was the GOAT, but like Brady surpassed one of his heroes in Joe Montana, Dave has slid past Pryor as the Greatest of all time...
I remember the time Dave Chappelle asked the crowd for a cigarette and I handed him one... he was extremely dissatisfied with the fact it was a Parliament. He made a whole joke about it and everything lol

How amazing would that have been to converse with Dave the philosophist on a taped live performance. Not because I idolize his comedy, but I relate and utilize the subjects he speaks on. He truly is a voice of our generation
Everyone should see this. Almost 4 hours and it seemed down right conversational

To imply that Carlin is somehow inferior to Dave Chappelle is utterly disrespectful. Ffs, can’t we appreciate our true intellectual treasures like Carlin, Chappelle, etc without being divisive?! Pathetic.
Dave Chappelle: "I know I know Im supposed to get out of here" Also Dave Chappelle : proceeds to do another 2 and a half hours
Rubbished yeah but because he’s dave Chappelle, nobody cares lol
It’s 240 am and I will not sleep till he’s done... 2020 imagine how awesome to be there live...
Who does 4 whole hours of unwritten, improvisational material, that's this poised, intelligent, gripping, hilarious, demanding, and poignant, with ZERO prompts. His opinions are educated and diplomatic. He dresses everything in eloquent slapstick comedy, strictly to make it more palatable for his audiences. He makes clear standpoints and asks for zero forgiveness for it. He's enthralling. It's absolutely impossible not to have unfettered respect for this guy. I'll never stop being impressed with his unapologetic, and incredible capabilities, regardless if I agree with his standpoints or not. Such a completely unique talent. He's one in a lifetime.
These are like therapy sessions for both Dave and us. Gives him a chance to see and vibe with people and for people to just relax and let a comedian riff for a few hours.
Dude he is straight up just talking “off the cuff”. Love it when he smacks the mic on his knee and stumbles off the stool
You're right, but he always hits the mic against himself or something when he cracks himself up, and he cracks up a lot. I can't help it either. I'll crack myself the fuck up.
kingkeefage uPdk
That's actually the ONE thing I don't like about his stand up... The damn sound from the mic when he hits himself with it. Bugs the shit of me lol
thats his trademark move.
The guy did 4 hours free to an audience that sounds less 30 people. All for the love of the art
No nkkknokmonknnkknkkknknonokk
Nm
Morning nkomkknnnnkkk
Yeah man, he just loves doing it. I respect him for that, and for turning down the money to keep his art true to his purpose.
And to think some people got up to go home/back to their hostel. The audacity. I would have held in my pee for as long as possible too.
Thank you @cleantones and THANK YOU CHAPPELLE, cherished every minute of that
Awesome! You're welcome!!
I feel like I just attended a advance history class in college run by a fully certified PROFESSOR. My god. Legend.
Imagine being able to see one of the greatest of all time comedians, and he's literally down to have conversation with the audience whilst being hilarious.
OCASTA I have to try very hard not to be jealous!💞
Facts right here
Notice how often he didn't use 'literally' unnecessarily. If you're going to parrot a style do his not the linguistic lemmings that rape 'literally'.
@@gregp103 relax bro
Thats probably part of what makes him the greatest.
Am I the only person who had to stop 6x to go reference a video and still came back to watch the rest of the show? 😍😍😂😂😂😝
Had to stop myself . I did wonder what bits got used in his recent stuff 🤔
It’s 2023 and I’m still watching this.
First time I'm watching this 2023/15/6
His stand-up has always been the best of the best, he’s like a knife that will never dull over time and already was sharp straight out the box.
You're not born with the knowledge that Dave Chappelle has, it is learned through life experience. Wisdom cannot be learned from a book and you are not born with it.
@@mattparish4451 I’m not referring to his knowledge Matt. You can’t really learn how to be a successful stand up comedian, it’s not something that can be taught. Some people, like Dave are born with natural abilities which make them great at their crafts. Not once did I mention knowledge.
Who's watching this almost 11 years to the date?
popeye697 big facts I come back to watch this every 2-3 years cause it’s just solid comedy and it’s fcking almost 4 hours worth of gold
yep!! so good!!
31:16 "America's gonna be great again, you'll all see" Then he immediately starts talking about voting Dave knew things that we didn't
Aye aye captain
I just discovered this and upset that I didn't a long ass time ago.
Dave Chappelle is so a head of his time. It’s almost incredible how his old shows and interviews are relatable to today’s situations. I have been studying his work and interviews and he always educating us in a way where he blends comedy with facts and futuristic conspiracies that just happen to come true or has some truth to it. Incredible!!!
I just rewatched his Killing them Softly standup and it is incredible how current it still is, he could have released that last week and it would have hit just as good,
Hes the greatest comedian of all time. Him n Carlin.
Carlin who?
George carlin @@Salo1992ful
and he keeps it 100, like a rapper who been through it never lied in his rhymes
I’ve listened to this, at least 12 times. The whole thing is amazing and I always find a new part to laugh at
I am so jealous of the people in this room. Listening to Dave Chapelle do comedy in a setting like would be so awesome.
It’s funny Cus like that’s what he’s tryna talk about. It’s weird ppl idolize ppl he’s just a guy
@@bigmon9186 Oh I don’t idolize him. I just like comedy shows. A small, more intimate comedy show like this sounds awesome. Now it’s all stadium seating and huge venues and it’s so not personal. But yeah, I idolize nobody. It’s not like I would let him babysit my kid or something. He’s just really good at his job.
10 years after this, he received The Mark Twain Award !!!
Ly Nguyen after implying he’ll be washed up 3 years after this in the middle of his set lol. Living legend
Literally nobody knows that award
This Is Google clearly you don’t....
@@ThisIsGoogle what do you mean?
@Mr. Happy There's more NON-PC people than PC. I'm for for respecting others and getting along w/each other, but when it comes to comedy, as long as it's coming from a good place, f**k that. Plus we'd never allow Dave to be canceled.
Dave says "three years from now I'll be a has been" little did he know a decade later he'd win the Mark Twain prize and get his 60 mil from Netflix.
if only it was actually him that received those accolades and money
@@samibachir4889 HAHAH CLONE RIGHT fucking hell , there is 1 born every minute
Whats crazy is that dave mentions how everything is connected somehow. He leaves a show and 50 million $ on the table and is called crazy. Years later he is given around that same amount from Netflix and is considered a comedic genius. 🧐
@@breakfasttacolucho7205 they managed to get their way
I watched the entire show. His speech was brilliant. But then I expected nothing less from this King!❤️ PS I also loved Bradley Cooper's speech and Common's performance.
The only person I can watch for 4 hours and not be bored Plus it’s great to see that he is a genuine people person
I've always considered it a personal flaw that I tend to overstay in any situation where I'm having a good time and the vibe is good even when I know people have things to do. The more I insist I'm leaving soon the longer I stay! It warms my heart to see that one of my personal heroes Dave Chappelle is liable to do the same 🦋 I love this guy.
01:02:45 he said he would leave and two and a half hours later he was still on stage. 😂 He really didn’t want to leave and I’m glad he didn’t. He is a genius.
I've been here before with a headline comedian. Buy tickets for the last show on a Thursday, Friday or Saturday and you might be in your chair for 5 hours. My situation was with Eddie Griffin. He was hilarious from start to finish. But he doesn't have a schedule. Things wait for him as he told us several times. His date would sit in that hotel room until he got there so as long as that audience sat there he wasn't going to leave. He'd meet the sun with us. So if you have a schedule be ready to get recognized if you're one of the first groups to leave in hour three. Or get the early show. But you'll miss some great comedy with that last show.
Wfadvv b Bnb.
I don't know true comedy, but I DO know personal relations. THIS man OWNED this crowd!!!
Dave telling jokes about propaganda and Red Dawn remake with Chinese instead of Russians in 2009, and in 2012 they actually make the movie...the level of mindfulness on this guy is insane.
"This is how we relax in America: we talk dirty in dark rooms." He's right. He always tells the truth.
Looool
