Craig Shoemaker Tickets

He kept us in stitches all night! He is very quick and clever!

Outstanding time, he is truly the "Master". Thank you Craig, for not picking me to do the machine gun...

The show was really a tour de force from Craig. I had never seen him live before and therefore don't know if this show was unusual, but per the event description we were expecting about two hours total between Craig and his opening act (Jason Love, who was really funny in his own right). Instead, after Jason's twenty minute or so warm up set, Craig was on stage for about two hours and twenty minutes! The time really flew as he bounced from one topic to another, highlighted periodically (and perfectly) by lapsing into Chris Rock (in order to be able to say stuff Crackers can't) and heckling a 22 year old sitting up front for not being able to relate to cultural references from his childhood. From a value standpoint relative to other comedians I've paid to see, Craig just blew them away.

From start to finish this has to be one of the best comdey shows you will ever see!! my cheeks hurt from laughing so much. from the lovemaster to the machine guns you will laugh your head off!! a definite must see!!

I've heard parts of Craig Shoemaker's act on Sirius Satelite Radio and had to see hime. He didn't disappoint me at all! I laghed so hard, I almost cried. He has great stories and a funny insight to life and gender roles. I'll definately see him agaiin. Only wished he would have done the bit on Mayberry being on drugs and Floyd the barber as dealer. My boyfriend would have enjoyed that insight as much as I did when I first heard it. Loved he show even without it.

I knew Craig's show was going to be funny. That is a understatement, it was HYSTERICAL!! He really is a talented comedian with great one liners, impersonations and gets the audience into the act. I don't think Craig has performed in San Diego before but I hope he will be sure to make it a permanent stop for his future tours. Anyone who enjoys great comedy will NOT be disappointed if you see his show. It was FANTASTIC!!!!! He also had Kevin Love open for him as a warm up act before Craig took the stage and he was pretty good. He started off slow but after a third of his act, he gained momentum and was really funny and make a great opener for Craig to start.

I was not dissappointed with the show. I would go again. The first time we saw Craig was the first time I laughed that hard and long. It was sad to see. I left looking like I had attended a funeral, I was laughing so hard I was crying. Great show.

Hilarious as usual. Sat front row, but forgot about when he goes into the crowd asking (forcing) the men to make the machine gun noise they made as a kid while playing war. Was praying he wouldn't pick me; fortunately he picked the other guy sitting at our table... Word of caution for anyone seeing a show at the Balboa Theatre: there is some serious AC being pumped out from under the stage. If you sit in the front row (at the tables), make sure you like it cold or bring a jacket. BRRR!!!

When this show was announced, the only thing I knew about Craig Shoemaker was that he used to be on the Howard Stern show sometimes. Figured I'd roll the dice and buy a couple of tickets, since they were fairly cheap ($22.50 face value for the front row). I'm so glad I did. Not only is Craig absolutely hilarious - I literally had tears in my eyes - he also performed for more than two hours straight, with no break. This guy is worth every penny, and I absolutely recommend his show to anyone, especially those who have not seen him before.

HILARIOUS!! Loved every minute of it. At the end of the show, my faced hurt from laughing so much!

This show was fantastic. It was funny from beginning to end. I never laughed so hard for so long. It was never dull. Great, great show. Making fun of the men up front with their machine gun impressions, the references of things for the 20yr old to look up because they were before her time, all so witty. There were so many funny, funny skits, thoroughly enjoyed the entire show. I took my parents to see this for my Father's birthday and we all had such a memorable time, one that we will never forget. Thank you Craig for a fantastic night out.

This was our first time seeing Craig. When we received the tickets (as a gift), I made the decision to not look him up or watch any of his on-line videos. I wanted all of his material to be fresh when we saw him. My husband & I were not disappointed! As frequent visitors of comedy clubs, Craig put on an excellent show & had us laughing from beginning to end. I would most definitely recommend others to attend a showing. I, personally, enjoyed his "reliving the past" most of all. It's amazing how many young people today don't even know about the simple things from the "not so distant past"! Of course, The Love Master, well.....that speaks for itself! Good material!

This guy was very funny.......very current! Had me laughing from the start. Reasonable price for a two hour show as well!!

I thought the show was great. Not a whole lot of new material, but still fun.

First time I've been to this venue, only problem was that a couple of times during the performance there were extraneous noises coming from the PA that distracted the performers. Craig put on a great show, a time-machine mix of familiar material with the new. Barney Fife and the Lovemaster, his best character, were well represented, and to explore comedy where "Whitey" couldn't go he channeled Chris Rock quite well for more outrageous vignettes. Craig finished up with his great audience participation schtik, Playing Army which is guaranteed to give you stitches as male audience members relive their childhood days at play mimicing machine guns, most often with poor results, especially while convulsing in helpless laughter. Craig was very personable after the show with autographs for his materials being sold in the lobby and to meet and greet fans, and handing out contact information for his facebook pages, website, and other modes of connection. We traveled 150 miles round-trip from New Hampshire and it was well worth it.

This was the most fun I've had on a night out in a long time! Start to finish, this is the most amazing comedy show. Craig takes the stage and immediately starts the side splitting (and I am still sore today). Whoa...Love Master! That, of course, is his most well known bit, but the entire lengthy show was a riot. This guy does not disappoint! We'll plan to catch him every time he's in town.

Craig is one of the giants in the comedy industry. His act is ever changing with fresh new material. I have seen him four times now live and this last show was absolutely his best.

Introduced girlfriend, her sister and brother in law to the antics of Craig and they loved the show. Two hours of non stop laughing. Can't wait to see him again.

Craig was funnier than i've ever heard him. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time. He had a lot of material i had never heard before, and of course his impressions were as amazing as ever.

Craig put on a hilarious show. Laughed my ass off, especially at his "Lovemaster" routine. Definitely will see his next show. Brett, not so much.
