The comedians were great. The venue was quite small and packed to copacity. There was no security in the venue and a huge fight broke out at the end of the event. This made for an extremely unsfae environment as we felt "trapped" from leaving the venue. This definitly affected the overall evening and experience in a negative way.
False advertising because there was no Patrice O'Neal. He was not a part of this show and there was no mention of his attending.
The show was funny but it was very disappointing not to see the person advertised. What happened??????
Patrice O'neal wasn't even there. Some extremely unfunny guy was the headliner. This has happened twice now at this place. At least the last time it was funny.
All the comedians were great but Patrice O'Neal is hilarious!!! Definitely a great night!
he didn't show up.
Turned out Patrice was sick, so they had a fill-in group of 5 comedians-- definitely a mixed bag. By the end of the night I was ready to throw my overpriced drink if I heard one more crack about pussy or money-grubbing girlfriends-- dudes, look out at your audience, more than half of us are FEMALE and paying to hear your crap! Some of the comedians were quite good, however.
Also, FYI: though tickets are free or very cheap through Goldstar, the club also has a two drink or $15 dollar minimum per person, and since all of the drinks are at least $10, visitors should factor in at least $25 to their ticket price.
Patrice O'neil was not at the show (and was never mentioned AT ALL)...fortunately the comedians that did perform were really funny. Still wandering what happened to Patrice O'neil!!
I really liked the show, even though the comedian Patrice O'Neal didn't show up.
Patrice Oneal was a no show and no one bothered to mention to the audience why and what was going on. It was not until I went to the bathroom that I ask one of the employees whats going on that he mentioned to me that Patrice could not attend since he had heart problems, so I ended up having to sit through a show with comedians I never seen or heard of and they were not really funny at all. And we still had to purchased the 2 drink minimum which I felt was not fair since we did not get our moneys worth of the comedian for the night.
Love that dude. Funny as hell.
The show was GREAT! All of the comedians, especially Patrice O'Neal, were hilarious! We would definitely go see a show there again.
They were great!! Event the host was hilarious! The venue is actually pretty small so it felt like a real private underground show but with awesome line-up of comedians. I had personally seen 3 of the comedians on HBO and VH1. We even got to meet Patrice/Shane/Host after the show! It was great all around.
Tremendous. Fresh material. Patrice Oneal can make you laugh without even saying anything.
Seating was first-come first-serve and there really weren't any bad seats.
The opening acts were very funny, too.
We would recommend the venue and the show.
The price was right!
Great Show...
The event was a great. The show was over two hours and the acts were hilarious. Would definitely recommend it.
Keeping it simple: Funny
Patrice O' Neal was in rare form, and tore the house down. The other comics were really funny too.
All four acts, including the host, were absoultely hilarious! I would say Patrice was the funniest, very laid back performance! I even got to hand him some napkins! lol
This dude was ridiculously funny.

*Lineups are subject to change
Patrice got his first real taste of stand-up at a place called Estelle's in Boston. He was heckling a comic, and the comic suggested maybe Patrice thought he could do better. Patrice did and the following week he went on stage at Estelle's and brought down the house. From there he went on to work at the Comedy Connection, then moved to working at most of the clubs in and around Boston, New England, and New York. Now, years later, Patrice has a wide range of comic tools.
In one bit, Patrice, at 6'5'' and 300+ lbs., makes the audience hear and almost see the story of the eastern European gymnast quietly speaking of her difficult upbringing and training. The Boston Globe said, "It is a hilarious piece made all the more so by the contradiction between Oneal's very visible presence and that of the young white girl he is playing."
Asked to whom he aspires, Patrice mentions only two names: George Carlin and Richard Pryor. Carlin for his distinct point of view and universal appeal; Pryor for his honesty, vulnerability and Personal revelation. Patrice has appeared on "The Late Show with Conan O'Brien" three times and was a regular on the very popular, Comedy Central's “Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn”. He has also performed stand-up at both the prestigious Montreal Just For Laughs and the HBO U.S. Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen. Additionally Patrice has Guest Starred on numerous Television Shows including FOX’s critically acclaimed “Arrested Development” and NBC’s “The Office”. He was also a series regular on FOX’s drama, “The Jury”.
You can hear him voicing the animated shows “Shorties Watchin’ Shorties” on Comedy Central and “O’Grady High” on Noggin. Catch Patrice in the films "The 25th Hour" directed by Spike Lee, "In The Cut" with Meg Ryan and "Head Of State" with Chris Rock. Patrice has also performed half hour specials on both Showtime, Comedy Central. and his own HBO “One Night Stand” half hour special.
