Members Who Went Said:
Very entertaining. Arj is very talented, and amusing.
Linda I am concerned that Goldstar doesn't let customers know they need to be at the door 15 minutes prior to the show starting. I ran into some traffic and parking issues and then when I got to the door the lady told me the show was sold out and I needed to be there 15 minutes prior. I expressed to her very firmly that I had just driven an hour and a half to see the show and I was unaware that I needed to be there 15 minutes early. Luckily she was able to find a spot for me and my date. Had I been turned away, I would have been a very dissatisfied customer. Otherwise, the show was great and I will continute to utilize Goldstar's services!
Jeff G. Jazz fan Arj was OK, but he seemed kind of tired, though he kept saying it was the Sunday audience that didn't care. It didn't help that I saw many of his best bits on YouTube (but then that is why I decided to go).

Event Highlights
More Details About This Event: Arj Barker has appeared on several television comedy shows since his 1997 appearance on Premium Blend. Most of his appearances are late-night shows such as Late Night with Conan O'Brien and The Glass House. He has had his own Comedy Central Presents episode on two occasions, first on 20th September, 2000 and again on 31st March, 2006. He also has appeared on the Australian show, Thank God You're Here on 18th October, 2006 and the 19th September, 2007 (the latter of which he won).
Barker also co-wrote The Marijuana-Logues, an off-Broadway show currently showing in New York - the title is a parody of production The Vagina Monologues. Doug Benson and Tony Camin also wrote the play, and all three perform in it as the original cast. NBC had given him the lead role for Nearly Nirvana, a sitcom originally scheduled for fall 2004. However, Barker was replaced in the lead role by the show's creator, Ajay Sahgal, and then the show never aired. Arj Barker also appears in the HBO sitcom Flight of the Conchords, as Dave, Bret and Jemaine's friend, whom they meet after moving to New York. About Rooster T.
