I have only seen regionally known comedians and never been to a famous comedian's show and as much as I hate to say "because of Covid" , but because of covid I haven't been able to go to my first famous comedian show.

I was going to go to see Chappelle & Rogan and planned to go to Las Vegas in July to go see Bill Burr (which is who I really wanted to see), but I am just not ready to travel by plane yet (not that I am worried about Covid, its just that I want to be able to completely enjoy myself and while I have no problem with mask, I don't feel like having to have one on for 4 hrs on the plane then have to wear one at the shows I go to, etc).

Hopefully I get an opportunity to see him in the coming year. I would also like to see Andrew Shultz and Theo Vonn.

The one that comes to mind is Don Rickles. I saw him years ago at the Golden Nugget in old downtown Las Vegas. Hilarious. I happened to be sitting right behind Sally Struthers (Meathead's wife)

Also saw Rodney Dangerfield and George Carlin in Vegas.

My favorite right now would be Dan Cummins. I saw him four times (3 for standup 1 for his podcast) before Covid shut shite down. He never repeated a joke in any of those sets. The only time he went to his old stuff was at the end when he asked the crowd what we wanted to hear, and every time it was his "Here Come the Spoons" bit.

In my opinion, he's one of the best stand up comedians working right now, and he doesn't get the respect he deserves.

Jo Koy came to Chattanooga just before covid and did a set where he was clearly working out a bunch of new material.

He did close to a 3 hour set. He is fantastic and hilarious.

He did a bit about how 90s R&B is the best music ever where he played clips from a ton of different songs. It was great. I think he was workshoping it for a Netflix special.

I REALLY wanted to see John Pinette, but unfortunately he passed before I got the chance. Anyone ever see him live? I imagine that was an amazing time. He was one of my favorites and probably one of, if not the, funniest acts ever.

I was watching Bill Burr on Netflix (by far my favorite comedian but never seen him live) and I was wondering who are even better live.

Saw him live at Red Rocks a few weeks back. It was hysterical. He just rants for 2 hours...he's great.

Saw Andrew Schulz a while back, he was great. Interacts with the crowd, works it into his bits.

Hannibal Buress was fantastic as well.

Jay Oakerson

He was underwhelming live. He relies on his crowd work, and if the crowd isn't giving him much and he has to rely upon his joke writing, he suffers a bit.
