Purchased tickets a few days before as I didn’t know Chris Rock was in town. Don’t recall hearing any marketing about it. My wife and I were able to get tickets in the balcony area and the sound for me was not good.
Awesome show!!! Great material!!!! Highly recommend. Can’t wait to see it again on Netflix.
We really enjoyed ourselves but the line to get out was chaotic due to having to take the cell phones out of the wallets. They need more people to help with this task after the show ends.
I feel like Chris has lost his edge. I've been a fan before he was even Pookie in New Jack City! He was sharp, witty, smart, and talented. He still is...but the edge isn't there anymore. It's awful to think that in this new "cancel culture" that he's afraid to say the things he used to talk about." But, I love you still Chris!!
The show was nothing short of great. Chris Rock is one of the goats! So many insights that make you think about your stance on social norms..... and not to brag.... my husband and i ran into Chris Rock the next day at a local museum and he was super nice. With that said our interaction and the ending of his show in Charlotte on Thursday night showed me he is the real deal. He could of told me and my husband to piss off but he didn't and i appreciate that. Cant wait for the Netflix special.
Finally saw my favorite comedian live, didn’t disappoint.
Everything from parking attendants to security check in and of course chris rock
Laughed so hard I cried! Great show! Endless laughs, and the opener was hilarious too!
Chris was hilarious! Loved how he joked about what happened to him and his maturity about that incident. Of course wish it was longer but nothing would have been long enough!! Outstanding
Chris Rock gave an amazing experience and comedy show. I truly loved all the material and cannot save anything but when is he coming back to Charlotte! Chris Rock is amazing!
I really appreciate his views on how he came from from a good family and how that has made him the man he has became! One thing I’m disappointed in, is that I have not received my tee shirts! 😟🤪
This was our first time seeing Chris Rock live and my husband and I really enjoyed ourselves. There was never a dull moment, I literally was in tears all night.
I have always wanted to see Chris Rock live, so I jumped at the chance to get tickets. That said, I have seen quite a few well-known (3 of the 4 Wayans, Tommy Davidson, Wanda Sykes, etc) at a local comedy club. I now realize that the more intimate atmosphere is what I need to truly have a genuine tear-producing laugh. I chuckled at some of his jokes, but not one out-loud laugh. I don’t know it was my being overly-familiar with his style, but I felt like I was going through the motions in listening. Outside of the mostly-forced profanity, I was not really amused. The “hungry edge” has disappeared from him like so many other famous comedians. As more fame/money is earned, I find myself not being to find humor in their jokes. In other words, it was a bit pedantic. Again, the setting played a part, but not enough to really enjoy the show. The opening comedian was hilarious and pushed boundaries to great effect! If he comes back to local club, I will buy tickets without hesitation. My only accommodation is saying that I saw Chris Rock to my great disappointment. I was hard pressed to give three stars.
Chris Rock gave a great standup show! I have seen him numerous times and he always kills the crowd with jokes. The Hippodrome is a beautiful venue with comfortable seating and a great staff! Do yourself a favor if you want some laughs and go see a Chris Rock Show. One of the all time greats of comedy!
Chris Rock kept us laughing the entire time .....loved it!
I’ve been a huge fan, but this was my first time seeing him live. He was so funny! Tambourine was my all-time favorite standup project, but this is may be my new favorite. The ticket price was worth it just to hear him talk about the Oscars!
The show was absolutely outstanding, hilarious, high energy, amazing! Chris Rock did not miss a beat! My husband and I laughed the entire time. I am SO SO glad that we decided to purchase tickets. I would recommend that everyone make it a priority to see Chris live and in-person!
This is going to be a great Netflix Special..... He did address the SLAP! Awesome Job Chris.
I've always been a huge fan of Chris Rock so I was excited to hear he was coming to Baltimore. He did not disappoint and I was hanging on to every word he said. He and the opening act were hilarious. The Hippodrome was a great location for this event as I always enjoy coming here. There are no poor seats, visuals and sound were fantastic. I would have like to know a bit more about the process of the pouches to secure phones ahead of time. I understood the reason for it so no complaints, I think it was just about setting expectations.
One of his best shows - have seen him a few times but this was outstanding!!! The content and energy was great, as was the opening act. Loved it
