by sk8sby on 7/31/10Uptown Theater - Kansas CityRating: 5 out of 5joe claire was a crack-up. very funny performance--monique was exceptional as well, but lavelle was the man as always keeping the crowd in an uproar. i thought he might use a lot of his old material but not true. he was amazing as he presented a lot of new material that i had not heard. simply amazingly funny. only drawback was the theater was exceptionally hot.
Must See!!!
