Mini-review…

It’s been a while since seeing Jerry Seinfeld live.  I was always a big fan of that television show that he was on… you know… um, what was it called?  Oh, yeah… Benson.  I hear he kinda “faded away” after that early-80s stint on Benson . ;)

The opener was Larry Miller.  He was the doorman on Seinfeld, plus he’s been in other television shows and movies (like Best in Show).  Funny stuff, but he only did about 20-25 minutes of material.  It was odd, because not even a minute later… on comes Jerry… at 7:28pm*…

Well, third time seeing him… Jerry did a lot of familiar jokes, and it was great.  Horse racing, cellphones, “going out,” old people in Florida, being a parent…  He did an hour’s worth of material, and then came back on for about 10 minutes of Q&A.  Complete with a classic “Hello, Newman.” :)

*- I only made note of the time as it shocked me that it was starting soooo early.
