Remove that one star post it has nothing to do with Pete. Get it out of here please and thank you.
Please remove the 1 star review below me that has absolutely nothing to do with Pete
They changed the date to nearly two weeks earlier at a different time and worse seats. One email was sent, but no texts.
Great venue -- small, intimate, and welcoming. Warm up act was not my favorite, but Pete Holmes was outstanding. We were laughing the entire time, and he knew how to play on audience reactions to generate more laughter. There was a real sense that he was in conversation with the audience, rather than simply talking at them. Worth every penny.
I knew Pete Holmes from some CollegeHumor videos and from his HBO show Crashing, and so I had good understanding of his style of humor. He brought his A-game. this show was so funny, I cannot wait to re-watch it when the special comes out.
Pete and his opener both were hilarious and the venue was awesome. It was a giant pain and a lot of confusion as they had moved the venue from the Filmore to the Varsity and also switched the date. They initially sent out an email saying they were changing the venue but it stated the same date. I had to check out the Facebook page of the venue to see that the date was actually changed as well. I also had really awesome tickets on the balcony of the first venue and that was quashed for just general admission seating. That was a super bummer.
We had such a good time seeing Pete Holmes. I had been wanting to see him for a while and it was great. The drinks were a little pricey but the venue was beautiful and we had great seats. I’d go there again!
Funny man. Funny show. Had a blast. Too bad there wasn't any Pete Holmes merch. Would've gotten a shirt or a CD. Kinda bummed about the no merch.
Pete Holmes is my favorite standup of all time. Seeing him live only further cemented that!!
