Help me pick a comedian to see in Vegas

Discussion in 'Anything goes' started by tarheelgamecock, Jun 20, 2008.

  1. So I'm going to Las Vegas tomorrow for two nights. It's my first time there and because I'm not there long, I wanted to keep things simple. I'll be solo Saturday night and was looking for a show that didn't involve Manilow or Elton John. I saw that Sarah Silverman is at the Hard Rock and Ray Romano and Kevin James are at the Mirage. None of them are among my favorite comedians, though I always found Everybody Loves Raymond at least a little funny. Anybody seen any of them live? Which would you recommend?

    Of those I'd take Ray Ramano thought I haven't seen any of their acts.

    Never seen Kevin James live, but I've seen clips and stand-up shows on Comedy Central of him. He's hilarious. He's definitely worth the money.

    I'd take Silverman... are there any other options?

    Send me the cash, I'll buy you "Jesus is Magic" by Silverman, and then I'll go get a mani-pedi with the difference. :)

    The time I went to Vegas, my female companion and I were going to attend Thunder From Down Under. Unfortunately, that didn't work out...

    And yes, she knows what team I play for...

    Silverman is hilarious, but if you are the least bit sensitive, don't go.

    Best comedy show on the strip? It's easy (and cheaper than the above choices):

    Amazing Johnathan
    He's at Planet Hollywood now, I think.
