I laughed until I cried!!!! His facial expressions are priceless! There were people from every walk of life in the audience which speaks volumes as to how relevant his material is! I love him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!He is a must see!
Lavell is a fool! Although it started an hour late, it was worth it. I was laughing so hard my face was hurting. I will definitely see him again when he comes back to the Lou!!
I was impressed that he stood up the whole time. I wasn't all too thrilled on how late it was when he actually started but it was a great show despite the almost 2 hour delay. WE LOVE YOU LAVELL, NOW WHERE'S OUR MONEY????? (he knows what that means)
The show started 1 hour late and if I had not have drove 2.5 hours to see, I would have left. Once the show got started it wasn't bad. I also wish there would have been some other comedians there. There was a lot of walking in the audience which was very distracting as well. We were on the end which was good because my husband could stretch his legs. The couple beside us moved because it was so cramped.
Live taping for Lavell Crawford's HBO special in St. Louis. As expected Lavell did not disappoint. FUNNY AS HELL!!
OMG this dude is so funny. The show was great. He kept me laughing the whole time. I tried to take a break from laughing because my cheeks were hurting, but I couldn't because he was so funny. The jokes just kept rolling in. The beginning of the show was good too. The old lady that went up there to dance was hilarious. But the last chick that went up there to dance sat all the other ladies down. She did all the real old school dances.
I was really anxious about the comedy show, we had great seats, could't wait for the show to start, and when it did, it was on and poppin! A good time was had by all.....Lavell keep up the good work, I am so very proud of you!!!!! Much Love.
Loved every minute of it, it was grrrrrrrrrrreat!!!
Great Show!! He was extremely funny and professional.
I really enjoyed the show. Lavell Crawford had me crying laughing so hard!! We had great seats and the theater was beautiful. Would reccomend this event to anyone. Good laughs equals healthy souls.
Well the show started an hour late which was not good. As the show begin to start it was good. The guy that got everything started was funny as well. BUT MR. CRAWFORD WAS HILARIOUS. I laughed so hard my face muscle were sore. I'm gon try to buy the DVD just to see if I'm on the camera. I can't wait until he comes back again!!!
Lavell was great!! If you get a chance to see him please do. I can't wait to see him again.
I'm was so happy to hear Lavell was coming I bought our tickets immediately when they went on sell, this dude is hillarious, I will go see him anytime, l loved the show, my husband and I laughed so hard. My laugh box couldn't handle no more after the first half of the show. He did an awesome job. We Love Lavell Crawford, this will be a must have once in a life time DVD.
I don't know where to start....I loved the ticket price. I was not too happy with the hidden fees that came out in the actual total, but felt like Lavell was worth it. Boy was I right. I had a great time from start to finish. I thought the customer service for the event was outstanding. I was impressed with the security, the ladies at the will call window, the ushers, and the management. After we got in and got seated and found that we were behind a camera and could not see the show up in the balcony level, I spoke with an usher who told me that he would talk to his manager. He then instructed us to go to the box office. We went, and the manager quickly addressed the issue and we had seats in the sixth row and a it was there that I witnessed the best comedy show I have ever seen in person. I was impressed with the warm up guy. Everything was awesome, no complaints. I even laughed so hard I almost fell out of my seat, boy was I embarrassed. Good job Lavell!!!...Also, I would absolutely attend another event at the Robert's Orpheum, the customer service was super impressive.
I love Lavell Crawford his comedy was side splitting Saturday night. The joke that he told about going to Hawaii, and what he thought was an older white man in a Spedo the size of an eye patch, had me laughing so hard I had a cramp in my side, and I was crying. I loved the show. But, what I didn't like about being taped for television was all the preparation for the taping like making us laugh hysterically and clap and scream loudly for the beginning and the end of the show, I thought it was too long and drawn out. I also thought it was unnecessary because Lavell is such a great comedian, he was going to get a standing ovation anyway.
I won’t lie, after looking SO forward to seeing Lavelle on the 23rd of October, in St. Louis, my boyfriend and I fought all day before going to see him. I thought about selling our tickets, the last thing I wanted to do was go out, and I was far from being in the mood. However, after arriving, and seeing that I had scored us 3rd row seats, I started to feel a little better, and then the show started!!! It was AMAZING! We laughed, literally, from start to finish. This was only my 2nd comedy show ever, and I truly believe it is going to be almost impossible to top! We left hand in hand, wiping tears from our eyes from laughing so hard!! THANKS LAVELLE!! You helped more than you know!!
This brotha is one of the best commedians i have ever seen in my life and will definatly buy tickets when he comes back
This was an incredible event. Lavell was hilarious.
Lets start from the beginning., this theater did not open the doors untill 7pm ..The show suppose to started at 7...Finally sat in our seats at 7:45 only to wait till almost 9 for the show to begin..There where no other comedians that came to the stage except for the M.C which made no sense at all since there was no other comedians to introduce..That was very disappointing...This was a taping for a upcoming DVD and what they had us doing before the show was not cool..They had us applause before the show as if he just said something funny..So lame..Some of the jokes that Lavelle told was previous jokes that I already heard him say..I could not understand him at times , his voice gets irratating at times..He was not that funny and some guest was leaving way before the show ended...I expected better since this was a live taping and because STL is his home town..
Me and my fiance went to see Lavell this weekend and he was just as funny as when we watch him on TV. The seats were great, the price was great and the show was great.
