5th Ann. New Years Comedy Blast - Not such a blast

The first and second act (Pauly Casillas and Halli Borgfjord) were good. The show started off great. The third act (Travon Free)was lame. The comic didn’t seem prepared, he even mentioned it in is routine but I thought he was kidding (of course). He also seemed intoxicated. His “jokes” took too long to get to the punch line. I found myself daydreaming and wondering why I paid so much for the tickets. The fourth act (Eli Braden)sang his whole skit, which I didn’t know he was going to do. It started out ok but some where it went terribly wrong. He got extremely raunchy, tons of people left early. It’s ironic because the last two comics were the ones with “credentials” and were my least favorite. I would give this show another try, but I’ll check out the reviews before I spend any money.

My husband and I were expecting a good show with the "headliners" lined up for show.
Turns out the first two comedians we thought were the warm-up to the big guns were the funniest! The last 2 were funny on occasion, but we expected better. The last person started off with 2 funny songs, but then it got old quick and he was never able to make the switch, then he was getting nervous because the crowd was not responding and began to heckle. I actually felt uncomfortable towards the end of the show. He was asking "how much time do I have left?" - Really?? Not very professional!
Maybe they are better writers than comedians?? Needless to say we have been telling all our friends that the show was disappointing and will be hesitant to return for a future show.
I love the Palace and have never seen a bad show there, not sure what happened with this one.

We all enjoy generic humor. We don’t like insults and put-downs. They’re not funny. The first and last comedians were terrible. Halli had some generic humor which was funny. The black comedian had some bad insults. We do not recommend the 5th Annual New Year’s Eve Comedy Blast. It was not good. After they supported gay activity they insulted and put down everything else. Most of them made comments on anal sex. Even Halli’s CD ends with it.

We have been to this show before and been pleased with most if not all comedians. This year was VERY different...in a bad way! We enjoyed much of the second comedian Holli B. but the others were awful. Much of their bits were lazy comedy-offering bodily function jokes and rude and offensive material. This is not an early 20's crowd that goes to this show. This is the over 30-50+ crowd who have largely outgrown public drunkenness and semen jokes! We don't care that you used your lease to wipe after using the toilet, that you have a penis in each ear during a three way, or how hard you party while you should be earning your pay at work! We deserved a care free night out , which is what we thought we were buying. Instead we were disgusted, chose to walk out to early in search of a way to erase the horrible evening before ushering in the new year. The Palace theater has a lot to make up for in our book. Needless to say we will try the show at Proctor's next year!

4 supposed comedians, disgusting mouths. I went there to laugh, didn't laugh once. when a comedian laughs at his own jokes, and nobody else does, something is wrong.
Not one of these comedians should have been up on that stage, considering the price of the ticket this was a disgusting display of inadequacy. They should get a real job and stop stealing peoples money for a show that was horrific.
When we left, people were standing outside yelling to refund ticket money. Horrible, simply horrible.
enough said!!!!!!!!!!!!

The first comedian was mildly funny. The rest were uninspired, dull and simply not funny. The last guy was raunchy without being funny. I have never seen so many people get up and leave before the end of a show. Too bad for the Palace but we will not be doing that show again next year.

We have gone to this show since it started, and have always enjoyed it. Last year was it seemed like the quality was starting to slip, but we gave it another go this year.
This year was not impressive. I didnt think any of the comedians were that great. Usually 2 out of the 4 are really awesome and make you belly laugh. I was ready to go half way in to the 3rd comic. There timing was all off it seemed like they were doing a lot of partying and winging the show. We wont go back next year!

When did filth and raunch become the sole basis for humor? Answer: When the performers have no true comedic talent!

If this is the best talent the Palace can attrack for New Year's Eve, then they should just drop this event. It was sooooo bad that it will now cause me to question everything the Palace hosts.

First two comics absolutley were hilarious. I was laughing and enjoying myself. The second two were not so good. The first one of the last two was telling us how drunk he was and it was obvious in his delivery he seemed more excited about telling us who he was and how he made it then giving a great performance. The last one was great for the first three songs then all he had left was how gross can I get. No story telling in-between the songs just hey look how gross I am. The second two should go hungry for a little while maybe then they will be motivated to give a decent show. The last two should also humbly thank the opening acts for saving the show.

The first and second comedians were fairly good except they kept to the usual run-of -mill topics, nothing current in politics or social issues.
The third comedian had better material, good delivery, and had some funny lines.
The fourth one was a bomb, singing and playing guitar did nothing to improve his material, some of it too raunchy, and the audience was restless, quite a number leaving ahead of the end of his performance, ourselves included.

First two acts were ok. Last two were absolutely horrible. Last act seemed like he wanted to just get booeed of stage. His songs were very very bad. I have heard his songs on the Howard Stern show and were great. Very disappointed.

the first and last comedians were not good. the last comedian with the guitar was the worst. these guys were more suited to entertain 10 year old boys. the second performer was very good. his first name was holly. if not for him the show would have been a total bust, and i would have asked for a refund. overall it was a very disappointing event.

Enjoyed the first 2 comedians but the show went downhill after that. The number of people who walked out during the last performance was embarrassing! Thankfully I bought cheap seats but I wouldn't spend $83 to do this again next year.
