Anthony Bourdain
by susan844 on 10/10/16Cross Arena - PortlandI attend many shows - mostly live entertainment in my home town of Portland, ME, in Boston, MA and lately in NYC, and this week in Las Vegas. I'm no stranger to good shows and some that you leave and say that was good just not great. Anthony Bourdain's show was disdainful. I don't mind vulgar referencing even when it's not necessary. I can get down and dirty with the best; however, that was the only thing he had to say... string after string of empty banter. He ranted for an hour and 15 minutes saying absolutely nothing... he slammed anyone and everyone on every food channel. Hmmmm and notice he got booted off everyone of them. He just called them big nothings... hmmmmm - strange that they've been successful and Anthony not so much. I was outraged for getting suckered into a show that cost $90 total for the ticket and heard nothing - zip - zero. I felt it was an hour of his ego... such a shame because I wanted to hear what it said in the write up... stories about his food travels. shame on me. I hope I can save someone their hard earned money for some other good event.
