Anyone seen any Stand Up Comedy shows in real life?

I've seen Arj Barker when he was with the Flight of the Conchords for their North American Tour they had this year when they arrived in Utah. It felt like it was my first Stand up comedy show, even though it was also my second music concert having Bret and Jemaine do their singing.

Arj was funny as hell when I saw him, even more funnier in real life than he is on TV.

Who have you guys seen?

I have never been, but I love watching stand up comedians on TV and DVDs ect. I am also going to see Jimmy Carr stand up in December, I can't wait :)

I've been to see Tim Minchen, and once a month there's a comedy show in my town, often featuring surprisingly high profile names (Reginald D Hunter being a recent example).

I've seen Billy Connolly twice, absolutely hilarious.

I had a chance to see Dave Chappelle live a few years ago. He's pretty cool live; he actually stood about an hour longer than when his set was supposed to end.

I have seen Eddie Izzard, Bill Bailey, Dylan Moran. and George Carlin live.

I saw George Carlin live. I'm glad I got to see him before he died.sammyjenkis898

Same. I saw him about a year or so before he died. He was fantastic, but he was reading from a script most of the time. Did he do the same at your show?

Yeah he looked pretty bad. Very frail. Really sad, he was my favorite comedian. He may have gotten a bit bitter and overly cynical later on, but he was still the best.

I went to see Lee Evans during his big tour last year. Was great

No, but I'd love to. I love stand-up comedy. :(LZ71

I had the chance to see Jerry Seinfeld but The Dark Knight opened that weekend so I decided not to.

I saw Ricky Gervais' Fame Tour while I was in England.

Best part of my vacation.

Carrot Top is the only stand up comedian that i've ever seen. he was pretty funny, but i'm sure there are many others that i would have enjoyed more. it was free so i'm not complaining. one of my good friends had his girl bail out on him at the last minute, so i got sloppy seconds:P

I've only seen Josh Blue live. It's not stand up, but I also saw Wierd Al live as well.

Come to think about I never went to live Stand up.

I just watch it in Comedy Central. I went to a few shows that are real life in a cruise or bar.
