Jimmy Carr - The Best Of, Ultimate, Gold, Greatest Hits Tour

When it comes to comedy shows at this particular venue, my rule is usually - as long as it's downstairs and not up front. 

Despite only leaving the house around 7 something, I thought I made it in good time (before 8 p.m.) - by the time I got there (parked at a nearby school), I think they had just opened the doors and people were streaming in. I was right in having dinner at home beforehand that the only food truck there was a taqueria, but I didn't want to deal with the horde, so I didn't. 

Apparently the show also sold out. As usual with these things, it was as if all the white people in attendance all seem to know each other.  And of course I ended up sitting next to a bunch of Malay people who were "ooohhh"-ing his more scathing bits. 



No opening act. He came on about 8.40 p.m. and really did 90 minutes. 90 minutes is a lot. Well, he was also doing crowd work, particularly addressing a lady named Samantha who can't seem to STFU and a Kevin who seems to be there with his entire family or something. 

I don't watch his comedy enough to know if he's repeating anything, but they were hilarious. 

If I wasn't still having this damn PND related cough, I probably could've enjoyed myself more, but as distinct as his laugh is, my cough this time is obnoxiously loud.

Show ended around 10 something. Ran out to the car as fast as humanly possible, and GTFO in record time.
