I was at the Charlie Sheen show Tuesday night and I had a blast. I think the money for the ticket was well spent and I'd see him again in the future.
There was no format when he came out with this tour so I had no idea what to expect, mostly heard it was him telling stories and a Q&A session with the crowd at the end, but most was him telling stories. (Reminded me of CatchCon-Deadliest Catch Convention's Captain's panel)
I'm hearings negative reports from Charlie Sheen's show. He was not boo'd or heckled all show long, but yes there were some that did. Yes, he dropped f-bombs. Charlie invited ppl to come fill the seats on the floor-there were some empty seats on the floor, although a few people showed up late and had to kick the other people out. He was not venomous, or hateful-there was the "Fuck Detroit!" Chant, he made it clear his kids were his priority-his biggest reason to be sober. He came out on stage (around 830) wearing a Mariners Jersey with #99 Vaughn on the back. Later in the show, an older woman, 84, was in the front row and he took it off and gave it to her. He said he had signed it "Happy Birthday" so on her next birthday he'll have given her a present. It was a very touching moment and she was so happy. He spoke of the Alabama tornadoes and how he's going back to help them raise money to help rebuild, that words cannot describe what he saw. He praised his father both professionally, as well as personally.
He told some funny stories-20/20 interview, the lady had been with Emilio 15 or so years back :), he was very relaxed, very entertaining, some spouting about X wives, but mostly all smiles, and included the crowd. It felt like we were all hanging out with Charlie. He asked ppl to help the ppl in Alabama. Money from tickets went to aid Japan. He did flame Lorre, but he was not obsessive about the subject. He went long with time because he and us were having a good time,and like he said, "This is the last show. I don't have to be anywhere tomorrow." Normally you don't stay on stage if you're being boo'd all night. He went off stage then did a fast walk around the perimeter of the floor area seating and was high fiving the fans. A high-five from Charlie was a fantastic way to end the night.
I thought I'd give you a more positive look at the show I saw last night.
