If you like to laugh like never before, this is a show for you
Funny looking forward to seeing him on tour for comedy.
"Why we don't suck". Sucks big time. You have to be one of his friends and know all the hockey players and actors he talks about to find comedy in this. People started leaving the theatre after 15 minutes
Dennis was a riot. Sharing stories of growing up in his 12 year catholic prison system. Playing hockey and early days of comedy in Boston. He said f@ck a lot so beware uf you have delicate sensitivities
The Denis Leary experience was superb from the minute we arrived outside the theater, it was organized and efficient... Leary came on at almost exactly 7pm (thank GOD there was NO warm-up talent, I pay for the headliner, spare me the attempt to "warm up" the crowd, we don't need it! Ever!) and he was at his best...intelligent, hilarious and a level of class rarely found in a comic who curses as much as he does! Love it when Denis comes home... Do not remember the writer's name from Letterman who was iinterviewing him, but they were obviously friends, have great chemistry, so the format worked out very well...the fact that we received Denis' book was SUCH a major bonus. AND...my wallet and car key fell out of my coat pocket unbeknownst to me, had to go back and forth TWICE to retrieve them, because I had no idea when I went back to get my wallet the first time, that my car key had fallen out also! Wilbur personnel were so helpful and patient...luckily, both were under the seat exactly where I thought they would be... Always a pleasure doing business with the Wilbur, we'll be back to see Trevor Noah in February! My best, SueJ
I was seated on the floor, toward the rear exits. Seats were stools, and surprising not uncomfortable. Sound was loud enough and could clearly see Denis on the stage. I think next time I would try and get a little closer though
Sunday night at Boston's best comedy venue (Wilber theatre) Dennis Leary was interviewed by Steve Schiff for two hilarious hours promoting his latest book (Why we don't suck). The free style forum led to a comic overview of Leary's career as well as his interaction over the years with other Boston comic legends. The Q&A with the audience had the crowd howling with laughter and Leary had to be dragged off the stage as he was clearly loving the interaction. Great night out...
He's my favorite comedian. Loved that he took questions from the audience. could have done without the host so that Denis could have done more of the talking. Overall a fun night.
I wasn't sure what to expect with this show. Didn't realize it wasn't a stand up when I purchased tickets. I have always thought he was pretty funny. Would recommend. Also since I bought tickets from ticket master I never printed them out (as I use my smart phone) so I also didn't realize he gave every ticket holder a copy of his book. Also had question answer session at the end.
