See that guy to the left? Not only is he the funniest comedian around, but guess who is seeing him live next month? Yep, that would be Joe and me! I got an e-mail this morning from Dane’s mailing list announcing a Chicago show on April 13th at Allstate Arena. I was so excited, I almost couldn’t contain myself! The pre-sale was at 9 am and we managed to snag decent seats considering how much they were asking. I love Dane, but I couldn’t stomach spending $100 each to sit in 30th row. I’m afraid only Robert Smith can hold the honor of no price is too high. It cost over $100 as it is and we chose the second to cheapest ticket option. I just hope Dane has some new material. I assume so since he’s filming his HBO special in Boston just two days later. We’re way up in the balcony, but not too far from the stage.
I think I’ll bring the binoculars just in case. ;)
One day, he’s a nobody. The next, I see his name everywhere and still have no idea what he does and have never heard his stuff or seen him in anything. How’d this happen?
I’d agree with Kevin, I have not even heard of this guy until a few months ago. He seems pretty funny though, I can only judge based on what I saw on SNL. :)
