THE BEGINNING . . . Jim Breuer, born on June 21, 1967 in Valley Stream, Long Island, has established himself as one of the most outrageous comedians in the U.S. through his incredible stand-up performances, charismatic stage antics and impressions, various television appearances, movie roles and his Sirius Satellite Radio show. A stand-up comedian since his high school days at Valley Stream Central High School in Valley Stream, New York, Jim worked in comedy clubs around the country for several years before deciding to become a regular on the New York comedy club circuit. After being in New York for only seven months, he landed a gig on the nationally syndicated show, "Uptown Comedy Club," where he spent two seasons. HITTING IT BIG . . . In 1995, Jim joined NBC's "Saturday Night Live," becoming best known for his original character "Goat Boy" and his impression of actor Joe Pesci, resulting in the recurring "Joe Pesci Show" sketch. Word of his uncanny imitation of Pesci spread to the actor himself, who later made a surprise appearance on "SNL" to confront the comedian - creating one of the most memorable skits in the show's history - which was later featured on the documentary, "101 Most Unforgettable Top SNL Moments." In 1998, after a four-year stint on "SNL," Jim starred in the movie "Half Baked," alongside of comedian Dave Chappelle. That summer, MTV also invited the comedian to be a host on the popular show "MTV's Beach House," which featured Jim strolling the New Jersey shore boardwalk with hidden cameras. Additional appearances include numerous stints on NBC's "Late Night with Conan O'Brien," as well as roles in several movies, such as "Dick" (1999) and "Once in the Life" (2000), and in 2006, he made a cameo appearance in Artie Lange's movie "Beer League." Also in 2006, Jim was named as the new host of VH1's popular show "Web Junk 20," where he guides viewers through the top 20 viral clips of the week. ON THE ROAD . . . Jim Breuer pioneered the "heavy-metal comedy" revolution, combining his love of rock ‘n' roll with comedy. Backed by a full band, Jim continues to entertain packed crowds with his impressions of AC/DC's Brian Johnson doing "The Hokey Pokey" and Metallica singing "If You're Happy and You Know It." In July 2007, word of Breuer's uncanny impression of Brian Johnson spread to the rock god himself, who personally requested that Jim sing with him live onstage during a John Entwistle Foundation benefit concert at BB King's Blues Club in New York. The comedian joined Brian Johnson onstage to perform a hilarious duet of Breuer's classic version of "Hokey Pokey," followed by an encore performance of "Highway to Hell". Jim's "Heavy Metal Man" comedy tours also feature a mix of routines that have become cult favorites, such as "The Wizard," "Coming Home at 4 a.m." and "Party in the Stomach." This revolutionary style of stand-up comedy secured Jim a spot on Comedy Central's list of the "100 Greatest Stand-Ups of All Time." Following his hour special on Comedy Central, Jim was invited to be a special guest host on "MTV Icon: Metallica," VH1's "Rock Honors" and Comedy Central's "Roast of Denis Leary." Unlike other comedians, Jim also shows his fans a softer side with his "Family Man" show, where he brings hilarious anecdotes about being a family man to life through charismatic stage antics and impressions. Nothing is sacred, as Jim introduces the audience to his family, telling side-splitting stories about his Dad (a.k.a. "Shuffles"), going to tap dancing lessons and gymnastics with his daughters and more. Throughout the years, Jim has also supported various charities through his comedy, including the Chris Farley Foundation, VH1 MusiCares, his local police and fire departments and more. UNLEASHING ON FANS . . . In 2004, Jim began his career at Sirius Satellite Radio as the host of his own show "Breuer Unleashed" on RawDog 104. Along with co-hosts, comedian Pete Correale and his high school buddies Larry Schneidmuller and Jimmy "Shaka," "Breuer Unleashed" takes listeners through a wide array of topics from music to family and friends to baseball and more. A variety of guests have appeared on "Breuer Unleashed," ranging from legendary rock stars like AC/DC's Brian Johnson, Metallica's James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich, Rob Zombie and Willie Nelson, to comedy greats Chevy Chase, Bill Cosby, Denis Leary and Dave Attell, and celebrities like Howard Stern, Luke Wilson, Matt Dillon, Sugar Ray Leonard and more. Airing live weekdays from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. EST, "Breuer Unleashed" is celebrating its third year on Sirius.
Jim was hilarious... this was our 2nd time to see Jim perform at the Paramount theater... Be has all new material and he did not disappoint us.....Jim can tell the best stories as he has amazing comic timing.. He is so talented as this Aygust show should be on Netflix for the world to see. My wife and I look forward to his next appearance..
I used to love Jim Breuer and, based on that, I will give him 1 star out of 5. From the technical issues (he had to switch microphones midway through the show) to his repeated, repeated, repeated use of making "demonic" sounds (Jim, they were funny the first 10 times, but not the following 60 times) this show was awful. Loud, crazy sounds cannot carry an entire show.
We love him and he never disappoints!!! Seen him 8 times and will continue to attend The Paramount however needs to space their seats better..wayyy too close...super hot....but Jims the best
I have seen Jim live three times now and every show has been different and hilarious! Jim is a down-to-earth real person and he is SOOOOOO talented at story-telling. His facial expressions and sound effects enhance an already hilarious act! I can't wait to see him live again. He is far and away my favorite comedian!
Funniest show I have ever seen !! We were all laughing the entire time !! If you haven’t seen Jim Breuer you must !!!!!!!!! Amazing
The opening act and Jim Breuer were really funny. I love the casual atmosphere made for a fun and relaxing night out. Being able to walk into the show with the drinks we purchased at the venue was a HUGE bonus. We are going back!
Jim was fantastic. His opener was funny as well. I hope they come back to Sugarloaf again!!
Knows his audience and area! And add in his noises and expressions… leads to constant laughter. Let’s face it even his giggle makes me laugh.
Ok so first of all the place is absolutely beautiful an amazing venue not a bad seat in the place not 1… we had a bit of an hiccup before show started but not to worry we were accommodated beautifully the managers were so professional and fixed our problem within literally minutes and we were on our way to our new seats and so our experience was a great place, great show and most importantly great people!! Thanks to all who helped us have an amazing evening.!can’t wait to return!!!
Venue was clean, seats were perfect. Jim Breuer was hilarious. We laughed the entire show.
From the opening till the end of the show I couldn't catch my breath, I was laughing so hard. Just funny and phenomenal. And if he ever comes back to the area we go see him again 👍
Jim was great! That’s the second time that I’ve seen his show. Loved it!
He’s an ultimate professional and handled everything wonderfully—- even turning some heckling into the funniest parts of his show. Refreshing to hear a comedian respectful of all but not backing off in his truth and artistry. He was hilarious and outstanding in his energy and approach.
This was the first comedy show ive been too, i was not disappointed. If you like his youtube videos youll love Jim live.
Jim was non-stop funny. I didn't pick up my phone once to take a picture or check my text. I could relate to everything he talked about, he seriously cracked me up. Driving 2.5 hours to go see him was totally worth it.
The venue was beautiful and so comfortable! Jim was HILARIOUS. I love his courage to say what needs to be said but in a humorous way. He gets right up to the point and then stops and encourages people to look further into what he’s saying. To QUESTION the narrative. We need more of that. Thank you for encouraging deep, critical thought.
From the opening act, Jim's set to the venue it was all awesome. Thank you for coming to podunk Indiana!
The show was awesome all the way from the comedic host and the two openers Jim brought up. All brought a fun and energetic act. Jim brought a high energy show with good amount of local focus along with current events, a bit of his personal and family life, trials and experiences. In all it was a 2 1/2 hour show with every bit of bang for your buck. Highly recommend.
Breuer is a very funny comedian who is highly animated and isn't afraid to tell venues that require a vaccine, mask or test to go pound sand.
The show was fantastic. Used recent events from his time in Alaska and made everyone able to relate to him. Great show. Would go again.
