This comedian was funny. If you're white, you'll probably be offended. There's quite a bit of racist material in his act.

It was supposed to be outrageous and not politicly correct, but it was not. The guy was \ not funny. The two comedians before him were more fun. That's the reason I gave a show one star and not zero. I didn't pay to ear bad jokes about G W Bush and C Rice having sex. Don't get be wrong I don't like Bush I just think that as a black guy he could say more things about what the president do or don't. That's just an example of Paul bad jokes.

I was very disappointed

The venue was great and the sound was good too. I was seated next to the bar in the very back so i had to sit on a bar stool which wasn't too comfortable for the length of the show but other than that i enjoyed the show. Paul was great. Especially if you are not personally sensitive to his style of humor.

The performance was great but I think the club tries to pack in too many people. The seats are too close together. There was a guy sitting behind me and he had his knee in my back the entire show but there was no room for me to move.

More Information About Cobb's Comedy Club 25th Anniversary: Paul Mooney

Description

Paul Mooney's first professional gig in comedy was with Richard Pryor. He wrote most of the hilarious routines for Pryor's "Saturday Night Live" appearance, co-wrote material on the groundbreaking "Live On Sunset" and "Is It Something I Said" albums, as well as Pryor's film "Jo Jo Dancer, Your Life Is Calling." As head writer for The Richard Pryor Show, he was responsible for the national television debuts of Robin Williams & Sandra Bernhard, to name a few.

Mooney wrote for the late Redd Foxx's "Sanford and Son" series and was head writer for "Good Times". He was the head writer during the first year of Fox's "In Living Color," creating the hilarious "Homey the Clown" skit. On "Saturday Night Live" he wrote Chevy Chase's famous word association skit. Most recently Mooney appeared on Comedy Central’s “Chappelle's Show”.

Paul Mooney came into his own with his controversial and critically acclaimed, debut comedy album "Race," for which he received a Grammy nomination. His album "Master Piece" continues to stir anger, laughter, and thought. "I always drop in some history" he explains "It's knowledge. There's always a message in my comedy and you may not get it that night – it's like time bombs. It'll get you a week later. You'll understand."
