My sister, Allison, got me a ticket to Friday's show of comedians... Jay Davis, Robert Kelly, Gary Gulman & Dane Cook. I've seen Dane live in Boston and worshiped Gary from afar. Robert Kelly I've seen on Tough Crowd and thought he was pretty funny. Jay Davis I've never heard of and rightfully so. He was unfunny.
Allison had to work the show as an usher and had to be there at 5:30. The doors didn't open til 7, so I either got a job there or walked around like a dork until 7. Well I got the job, sort of. They gave me a t-shirt as if I was an usher, but I just kinda stood near Allison the whole time.
We got to listen to Dane and Bob do their sound check. They sang a song called, "You Idiot, You Stupid Douche", which has now become a personal favorite.
The show was hilarious. Jay Davis started the show with the unfunny, then brought Bob Kelly on.
Even with a busted leg, he brought the funny. With his busted leg Bob got around the place on a scooter. Which sounds very homosexual, yet he made it look cool.

Then after more unfunny from Jay... Mr Gary Gulman took the stage. If you watched Last Comic Standing 2 he's the tall Jewish fella that was best friend's with Todd Glass.During Gary's set a douche bag in the section behind me kept yelling crazy stuff. Gary got fed up, stopped talking and said. "Will someone please put a cock in that guy's mouth?" Allison and I almost fell of our chairs. He went on to talk about how magical grapes are. Not to be confused with Grapefruit.
After the show we waited on line Allison and I told him how much we loved his set and that the comeback he had for the douche was the funniest we've ever heard. He asked us which one because he couldn't remember. When we recited the line, he laughed out loud too, because he knew that, yes, it was the greatest comeback ever. God he's beautiful.

Then more unfunny from Jay... then the reason most of the people were there took the stage... Dane Cook. I can't really describe how funny he was. You just know it was hilarious. 
Dane & I SUPERFINGER!
These pictures were taken around 1:15am. These guys were amazing. They started the show at 8:30, and they waited around for anyone who wanted to see them. You could tell they were tired, but they stayed anyway. This is why I love comedians. Their job is to make people laugh. They could have easily just left after the show, but because they are all hot and funny, they stayed. While I'm hella tired now... it was very much worth it.
I met some of Allison's friends too. I kinda felt like a loser though. Here I am less than 2 months away from being 24 and I'm staying in a freshman dorm. At least her friends made me laugh. And I finally met Gary.
Peace...
