I went to see Dave Chappelle twice tonight, look we don't get great comics in my shitty city very often and Chappelle is one of the best, so I went twice and I'm glad I did. Anyway when the second show was done Dave told us that he had an after party at a bar I go to semi frequently...never had a problem before. Anyway me and about 100 50 or so people head down, out of an audience of about 2000. I decide to head down to, I don't got work tomorrow and the trains stopped running 20 minutes before the gig finished so I'm paying for a taxi fare anyway. I end up about 35 from the front, I wait about an hour during this time Chappelle drives by and the DJ comes out to scope the line. then 20 minutes later a woman comes out starting to pick the girls from the line, then couples then lets like the first 20 peeps in the line in (as far as I can tell) then she says they are at capacity and tells the rest of us to fuck off in so many words. Now I'm not that shitty about the situation I rolled the dice and stood in line, and I can also understand scoping out the single women, but the couples? There were some old ugly ass couples from behind me who got into the club just because one of them technically had a vagina. Anyway that kinda pissed me off.

The worst part about it is that I go to that place probably once or twice a month and every other time its been first come first serve, so the entry must have been determined by Chappelle's posse which makes me think just slightly less of him.

I'm sorry about that.

Dave Chappelle probably didn't want a sausage fest full of guys with no women with them, perhaps? It probably wasn't obvious then, but it looked like everything was arranged ahead of time and celebrities have the power to dictate who comes in and who doesn't.

Is he still lifting weights? (I think that's still the weirdest fucking thing).

That sucks, but I guess that'll learn ya to always wear or buy a vagina when going out, vaginas get special treatment a lot of the time, especially in clubs/bar settings. So get a sex change(the easiest way) and enjoy being important. lol

Never meet your heroes. Or try to get into the same club as them in your case.

Also, never watch behind the scenes or interviews with pornstars, it will shatter your world.

He didn't look big, still kinda skinny actually.

You saw a comedian twice in one night? Were the sets the same?

No actually. there were a few main joked that were the same, so probably around 40 minutes of material that was the same, the rest was totally different.

The reason I went twice is that when tickets went on sale the first time there was only one show, the early show, a week later they sold tickets to a second show due to the first show selling out in 10 minutes. The second show was billed as a late show, which I've found when it comes to comedy is generally a better show than an early show. It also means that the first show has to stay tight and wont go over time, and Chappelle is known for going long. So I thought the second show would be the better show. But all my friends had already bought bought tickets to the first show, and didn't want to switch so I didn't want to sell my first ticket either.

So I went to both and I was happy I did, the first set was very professional the jokes were in an order that allowed good call backs it was the more "professional" show, it was tight. The second show went long by about 30 - 40 minutes, hit most of the "big piece jokes" of the first set but did them in a more conversational way and out of order, not as many call backs, more crowd interaction, and two different "big piece jokes".

Considering this is all the Chappelle I'm going to get, probably forever, I'm glad I went to both.

I'm assuming the line of thinking was get women in there and couples will be no threat to the single women in the bar, hence giving VIP's more of a chance without feeling threatened.
