B for effort for John Mulaney
by LeQueef on 11/23/14Wilbur Theatre - BostonI love John Mulaney. I've been a fan of his for years and saw him at the Wilbur Theatre in Boston in 2012 which was an amazing performance. His show on November 20, 2014 was good over all. My biggest disappointment comes from his recycling of material from 2 years ago. I would say 50% of his show was repeat stuff (his story about Murfreesboro, Tennessee was pretty much word-for-word what he said during a spot on Jimmy Fallon recently). I get that it's hard for comedians to have new material all the time, and maybe all the material for some lucky audience member this time was 100% new... But I found myself knowing the punchline of half of his stories which kinda sucked. Nonetheless, he is a consummate performer and his handling of some audience interactions were priceless. I highly recommend him if you've never seen any of his bits. Anyway, he gets a B for effort from me for this.
