One of the best shows ever!!! Richard Lewis was great and Spike and the Impalers ROCKED the house!!!! Looking forward to next year!!
Loved the musical portion but Richard Lewis was a bit of a disappointment. Had his rablings only gone on for a shorter time it might have been funnier but he lost the audience after a while.
non stop energy from ther get go, eh ha merry christmas
Richard Lewis was hard to follow, he could not complete a sentence. Will never go see him again. Very dissappointing. Spike and the Impalers were AWESOME as always. Love their shows
Bob Rivers & gang did not disappoint. What amazing guitar players. Bob son had the honors of being the opening act. Very funny. I enjoyed him much more than Richard Lewis, whom I found to be too odd. My husband enjoyed the night and said he wants to go again next year. I was expecting a few twisted songs. That was even in the title. Kinda disappointed about that. Really the young guitarist was awesome though.
This is the first time I have gone to a Bob Rivers event, and it certainly will not be the last. The show was started off by up and coming comedian Andrew Rivers, then followed by the wonderful Richard Lewis, whom I swear was speaking to only me during much of the show! He still has it. What a treat. Then to be entertained by the awesome music of Spike & the Impalers with all the different guest was just great. Fantastic. Also what a magical thing to do at Christmas time, but sponser less fortunate children through World Vision. This was truly the best show I've seen in a long long time.
If it wasn't for Bob River's son opening for Richard there would'nt be a comedy act. First time to see Spike and the Impalers. I brought a veteran friend of mine who is recovering from cancer and he and I really enjoyed the rock concert. Joe had me in tears....Great job to Bob Rivers, Spike, Joe and the rest of the cast.
Andrew Rivers did an outstanding job of getting the crowd laughing and then Richard Lewis started to bring the house down with his insightful comedy. Spike and the rest of the local rock and rollers brought the house down with their versions of the "best of". This is a show that will not soon be surpassed................until their next one!!!
We have been several times to see Spike and/or Twisted Christmas. this was truly enjoyable. A few things were not. Honestly, the show would have been better without Richard Lewis...just not my type of comedian. Andrew was refreshing and wonderful and would have been a better headliner. Did not come for Richard Lewis, came for Spike and the Impalers. Although the band and all its members were so entertaining and immensely talented (love music), I was looking forward to some Twisted Christmas songs...but there were none. Kaci is a great performer, but could someone find her a new outfit and new moves?!! Hey, just had to throw that in!
Richard Lewis gave a funny and off beat performance. He is a little hard to follow, but I enjoyed him. Bob River's son did a great job, and I think he has a great career ahead of him. Spike and the Impalers and their many guests were great. I could tell all the musicians really loved what they were doing. I was in the second section of seating and the sound was a little garbled at times, I couldn't tell if it was the mix or the acoustics in the room. Overall a great night out for a good cause. Count me in for next year!
Very funny with far too many syndromes. Spike and the Impaler's where outstanding as usual.
This was our third Twisted Xmas. Love Bob and the gang. They always put on a good show. Richard Lewis was funny as hell and Bob's son Andrew is well on his way to a comedy career.
I've been to a lot of their shows, and this one was not one of their best. I think they really miss Dudley and the girl from Hell's Belle's. Love Lynn, but White Wedding didn't work. I do wish they'd give up their Boss stuff, but I know that'll never happen. Would have loved more VanHalen and for the love of all that's holy, play Kashmere(sp)! Lewis started slowly but ended up very funny. I have never seen him perform before so I didn't know what to expect from a live show.
Richard Lewis's hour-long set was really funny, had us all laughing.
JB opened the show with non stop f'bombs that lasted throughout the entire show. I think he threw more f'bombs in 45 minutes than the movie Casino had in 3 hours. To put in into 2 words, he "f'bomb sucked" Richard on the other hand is a seasoned comic. He's brilliant. He brought me to tears from laughing so hard. He has such a unique style that can only be enjoyed by chosen few. I hope the next time Richard goes on tour, JB isn't with him.
I love to laugh but was hard with JB using the F bomb for every other word in his performance. I don't mind a swear every now and then but it's hard to laugh at only that word. It set a negative tone for the entire evening.
I was with my mother! I didnt relax through his blue set until I realized she was laughing her ass off! She said the same thing about me. We knew he was blue but he was purple! But funnnnny! Richard Lewis is always a pleasure to see. He is a favorite and I am sure I will see him again.
JB Smoove did the same routine he did last year at the Wilbur, so what was so funny about that? Not much. He could have done better. Richard Lewis was pretty funny...much better than last year when he completely drew a blank about 3/4 of the way through the routine. Much more lucid this year...good effort by RL.
JB SMOOTH stole the show. He was much funnier than I had expected. He should come back again, but be the headliner.
Apparently, JB Smoove went on immediately @ 7:30 (overall show start time) and performed for about 25 mins. Showed up @ 8pm to see he was already done. Very disappointing, as there are always openers and for a Friday show getting home from work, etc....it sort of ruined the experience
