Dave Chappelle Comeback


philp

Recommended Posts

Dave Chappelle was at the Stevens Center in Winston Salem tonight. $52 was a little pricey when you include beer and shots at a bar across the street, beforehand. Had a great time though. He's incredible at was he does and a favorite for many my age (mid 20's). He will also be in Ral, Clt, and SC this week. He's still funny as poo. Welcome back Dave!

I think he's been doing stand-up again for a while?  Glad he's out there doing some more work though.

Yeah, he has been doing standup for awhile and actually I am not sure he ever really stopped for long. Mostly smaller impromtu shows so no one really hears about them. Think he has 3 shows this weekend in CLT.

 

I was going to go but I have heard that a lot of his recent shows have been fairly bad. A friend of mine has seen him 10 times and he said the last two times have been really bad and last year he actually walked out because he couldn't take it anymore. This guy is a huge Chapelle fan but said Dave had absolutely no material and just kind of talked and there was lots of awkward silence. Said if it wasn't for some hecklers out in the crowd there would have been no material at all. Good to hear the OP thought it was good and hopefully this go around is good for Dave,.

He's done a few shows here and there over the last few years.  He made comments like "I'm starting at the bottom again" and " I'm making my comeback".   He is now getting back on the road, which is a great thing.  He mentioned doing shows in the smaller cities because of the hospitality.  Either way, I was proud to have him here.

    • Yeah this needs to happen ASAP. I don’t care if the price is lower. These Vikings fans on Twitter are absolutely insufferable. Acting like they have been world beaters for the last 60 years and thinking Carolina should just hand him over for nothing. We’ve had 7 or so tough seasons in a row and we have still been to two superbowls since they have and won more playoff games since 1995.    I hope Dan sends him to Detroit for a 2040 7th rounder and eats half the contract. Even Sheena is replying to them.
    • I hope your cath went well
    • So did the Panthers initiate this by making him "available for the right price" or was this something Thielen himself pushed for? I also never saw this quote he made about JJ McCarthy back in June. https://sports.yahoo.com/article/panthers-adam-thielen-both-asked-182711572.html Thielen believes McCarthy is built for big moments and will eventually show the world the skillset that won the Michigan Wolverines a national championship in 2023/2024. He even said McCarthy could be the “face of the league.” “I have high expectations for him. I've been able to be around a little bit through some of the time last summer... back in Minnesota, and I think he has the ability to be one of the great quarterbacks this season and the face of this league at some point. You know, I think he's got every tool and intangible that you can have,” Thielen said. “Obviously, it's a difficult league and it's not gonna just be easy, but I think he has the ability to handle adversity to be able to be big in big moments, as you saw when he was in college. I think he's got a great support staff around him, whether it be the coaches or the trainers.” Sounds like he's had one foot out the door for some time now.
