Okay, we just got back a few hours ago from Nashville and seeing Brian Regan live. Let me just say that he is one of the funniest men alive if you ask me. I have seen his DVD, and listened to a couple of his past shows and they were hilarious. We thought that he might do some of the material from his previous routines and just kind of have those worked into the new act. But as it turned out, it was almost all new stuff. I mean, of course he had a few things that we had heard before. He did probably 4 bits that we had heard before, but other than that, the entire routine was completely new and was hilarious. Probably the funniest part was that even though it was rehearsed and put together extremely well, it was live. It wasn’t taped and put on comedy central after lots of editing, it was truly live. And because of that, he had certain bits that he screwed up saying, and because of that, he was able to show how quick on his feet he was. He could show kind of his improv skills. The guy was really great. I loved seeing him, and you had better believe that I will see him again the next time he is on tour.
I had never been to a standup show before. It was really a neat experience. It was kind of like a concert in that it had an opening act to get the crowd into it before Regan got on stage, and the opening act was really good as well. And then there was even an ovation at the end so that Brian came back again and did a few more jokes as an encore. If you haven’t ever been to a comedy show, go sometime. It is a really fun experience. But I would say to go to someone that you know is going to be funny for your first time, because if you just go to a comedy club and see some random person, then it could go badly and sour you on the entire experience. And nobody wants to be soured from laughing.
