Since I haven’t done much today to write about, I am going to make a list of my favorite comedians… and try to put them in order, but it WILL be hard! There are links all over the place in this post!
| 1. Kyle Cease | My favorite, and I haven’t even seen him live, but my Dad has… in the “Weirder. Blacker. Dimpler.” DVD, Dad was in the second row, and you can see him! I was so jealous that he went to Seattle at the perfect time to catch that show! Oh, and I started his first Facebook fan group :) Click here for the link. That link to the DVD is actually the WHOLE THING. (You can actually see Dad in the audience in the white shirt!) |
| I haven’t seen him live either, but next time he comes remotely close, I am going! I love getting e-mail updates from his “Secret Public Journal” | |
| 3. Brian Regan
| I did see him live on March 28, 2008 in Mobile, I’m actually wearing a shirt right now that says “The big yellow one’s the sun” from a joke he does. Click here for the pictures I got back last March. |
| 4. Daniel Tosh | I was lucky enough to get really close seats for Daniel Tosh in Atlanta on October 24, 2008 for Courtney’s birthday. He was sooo hilarious, and he now hosts the show Tosh.0 (Tosh Point O). Also, I get to see him again the day after my birthday because he’s coming to Auburn!! |
| 5. Jim Gaffigan | Jim Gaffigan came to Auburn October 16, 2007, and through the wonders of Facebook after telling him some good places to go after the show, I actually saw him and his opener at Sky Bar after the show. At the show, Courtney, Kelsey, Justin, and I had front row center seats, and I got his autograph after the show too! |
| He came to Auburn too, and Courtney and I went and got great seats. Unfortunately we weren’t allowed to take pictures, so nothing to show for it!! He hosted the show “Important Things with Demetri Martin” and I’m sure it will be out with a second season. | |
7. Nick Swardson  | On September 27, 2008, Greg and I took a trip to Atlanta to go see Nick Swardson in Atlanta at the Tabernacle with CJ and Drew. He has been in a bunch of movies including Grandma’s Boy, and has a CD/DVD combo called Party, that is hilarious. |
| I just loved his Comedy Central Presents, one joke that stands out is something like “I like to go to bad movies three weeks late when there’s only one person is in the theater… and sit RIGHT next to them.” His special “Live at the Purple Onion” is hilarious also, especially when he plays his brother!! | |
| 9. Dane Cook
| Mom got me tickets to see Dane Cook in Atlanta on November 15, 2007. He was of course hilarious. I’m more of a fan of the older stuff (Retaliation & Harmful if Swallowed) instead of his newest special “ISolated INcident.” |
| 10. Chelsea Handler | I like her Comedy Central Presents, and of course am a fan of her show Chelsea Lately and her previous show Girls Behaving Badly, but I’m not really watching it every night or anything, but when I do watch it, I’m laughing the whole time.
|
| 11. Mitch Hedberg | I actually saw Mitch Hedberg perform one of his last shows when he came to Auburn with Jim Breur March 8, 2005. (He passed away March 29). Anyways, he is famous for his one liner jokes, and he put on a good show! |
| 12.Jeff Dunham | I saw him on December 28, 2007 in Mobile, and he was awesome live. |
| 13.John Heffron | He was one of the first comedians I saw and it  was at the Improv at Harrah’s in in Las Vegas in the FRONT ROW (in 2003). He performed with Jeremy Hotz at the Comedy Club, and I got John’s signature after the show (pictured). He went on to win the second season of Last Comic Standing, which was the only season I watched. |
| Honorable Mentions ;) | Ellen DeGeneres, Lynne Koplitz, Kyle Dunnigan, Stephen Colbert, Jay Leno, Conan O’Brien, Greg Behrendt, Bo Burnham, Sarah Silverman, Mitch Fatel |
| Others I’ve seen LIVE: | The Amazing Johnathan, Jeff Foxworthy, Jim Breuer, Bruce Bruce, Charlie Murphy, Jeremy Hotz, Cedric Yarbrough, Carlos Alazraqui, Matt Fulchiron, Jennifer Coolidge |
