Whenever possible, go for the late show - you never know what will happen! That was definitely the case with Norm, who seemed to freestyle through his late set of well over an hour. He had us on the floor! The MC (wish I could remember his name) was also good; the middle guy not so much. We decided to enjoy our pre-show dinner and not stress about seating, so by the time we got there the main floor was full and we were seated in the balcony, which was fine. Service was extremely slow for our second drink.

I'VE ALWAYS LOVED NORM MACDONALD.
NOT LAST NIGHT. I HOPE IT WAS JUST A BAD NIGHT.
OTHERWISE, HE SHOULD STICK TO TV AND MOVIES.

This was a comedy night for comedians. It's kind of like how The Aristocrats was maybe only funny to those "in on the joke," that's how I felt about Norm.

Yes, he came out about an hour late because he'd just woken up (probably from passing out in front of a binge on some gambling.com site hours earlier), but it was pure gold after that. The man is SUPER smart and dumbs himself down for his comedy in a way that subversively shows how smart he is (does that make any sense?).

Anyway, my boyfriend (a comedian) and I had a really great time and I'd highly recommend seeing Norm if he's ever in town!

Last time we saw Norm was at the Warfield and it was the worst experience ever for seating and service.
I was SO releieved when I saw that Cobb;s had booked Norm this time. I love Cobb's, I never have to wait for than a couple minutes to get in, the staff is friendly and efficient, and the room is always a nice temperature.
Norm was hilarious as usual, he is definately worth seeing. He even hung out after to talk to people.

More Information About Norm MacDonald

Description

Norm Macdonald is bringing the laughs to City National Grove of Anaheim. Macdonald is best known from his five seasons as a cast member on Saturday Night Live, where he anchored Weekend Update for three years. He has also done numerous television and movie appearances.

Macdonald began Saturday Night Live back in 1993, and bursting on to the scene with his hilarious impressions of celebrities such as Burt Reynolds, Bob Dole, David Letterman, Larry King, and many more. He appeared on the September 1999 Saturday Night Live primetime special celebrating the program's 25th year on the air. Macdonald even came back to SNL for the show's 34th season finale to do his famous Burt Reynolds impression in the Celebrity Jeopardy skit with Will Ferrell, who played Jeopardy host Alex Trebek. As the anchor of the Weekend Update segment, Macdonald often referenced major news and pop culture stories of the day. The O.J. Simpson trial and Michael Jackson's highly publicized divorce from Lisa Marie Presley provided the inspiration for some of Macdonald's best performances.

Soon after Saturday Night Live, Macdonald co-wrote and starred in the movie Dirty Work, with Jack Warden, Don Rickles, Chevy Chase, Chris Farley, Artie Lange and Adam Sandler. Later that year, Macdonald voiced the character of Lucky the dog in the Eddie Murphy remake of Dr. Dolittle. He also continued his character in the sequels Dr. Dolittle 2 and Dr. Dolittle 3. In 1999, Macdonald starred in the sitcom The Norm Show (later renamed Norm), co-starring Laurie Metcalf, Artie Lange and Ian Gomez, which ran for three seasons on ABC.

Macdonald became a frequent guest of Conan O'Brien, and has also kept busy with many shows and appearances on Comedy Central, including The Comedy Central Roast of Bob Saget. In 2011, Comedy Central aired his stand-up special Me Doing Stand-Up and a sports news parody entitled Sports Show with Norm Macdonald.
