Regal Kingston Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Any other kickbackers going to see Chris Rock? In my opinion he is currently the best in his profession ?40 a ticket is a bit steep but if its anything like his DVD concerts it will be worth every penny. I can't wait!

lewis2006 Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Sorry but I aint into the whole "black comedian slates whites for a couple of hours" thing. Chris Rock is one of the worst offenders of this if you ask me...just gets boring and quite cringeworthy at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regal Kingston Posted April 29, 2008 Author Share Posted April 29, 2008 "White people, they do this, but black people, we do THIS!"Side splitting. Thats not the case at all! It is a fair bit of his act but he wouldn't be the critically acclaimed comedian he is if thats all he done. Who do you like Makween? LENNY HENRY?

DavidRae Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Maybe I would have gone if he was funny. But as he is less funny than 3rd world debt I'm glad I missed it. Shocking humour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Del1812 Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Think Chris Rock is quite good though I end up agreeing with him more than anything else which usually means I'm nodding my head more than I'm laughing. He is funny, just not one of my top ten all time. I have to disagree strongly with what the Mak says. I think he slates his own race as much as he slates white people, especially considering his most famous work is the Black People vs N*gg*z bit which, having been heavily into black culture as a teenager, I find funny as ****.

Just trying to see where you got your impression of me from. I dont watch him long enough to be offended, he does my head in with his "impressions" and noises he makes.

Makween Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Thats not the case at all! It is a fair bit of his act but he wouldn't be the critically acclaimed comedian he is if thats all he done. Who do you like Makween? LENNY HENRY? What's with the capitals? That's really, really scary. So scary that I'm not even going to answer your question. Leave me alone. Think Chris Rock is quite good though I end up agreeing with him more than anything else which usually means I'm nodding my head more than I'm laughing. He is funny, just not one of my top ten all time. I have to disagree strongly with what the Mak says. I think he slates his own race as much as he slates white people, especially considering his most famous work is the Black People vs N*gg*z bit which, having been heavily into black culture as a teenager, I find funny as ****. I didn't say that he slated whites. That was lewis2006. I said that all that he seems to do is talk about what black people and white people do differently.

cosanostra Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Got tickets as a surprise for the burd, had to pay over the face value as well. She can't go because she has a school trip (she's a teacher before anyone says anything ). Not sure what i'll do with the tickets now, can't imagine any of my mates wanting to pay that much to see Chris Rock. Probably end up sticking them on ebay in order to get my money back. Gutted.
