Blue collar conedy tour

if u have seen the blue collar comedy tour tell me what u think about it. i thought it was hilarious :laughing:

I haven't actually gone to it, but I have listened to some of Bill Engval's work. That guy's friggin' hilarious.

It was ok, but there are better standups out there. Jeff Foxworthy seems more or less washed up (if you've heard one redneck joke, you've heard them all), and same with Bill Engval's stuff. "Here's your sign" was funny. Was. Not anymore. I thought his story about getting kicked out of the bar was amusing though.

"Conedy" indeed. More like "Cornedy" am i rite?

I feel like the blue collar comedy tour is the next Dave Chappelle, and that is not a good thing.

Jeff Foxworthy was funny for 10 seconds. After his rise to popularity, the public was bombarded with so many redneck jokes that he was able to saturate the market and exaust his material faster than any comedian I can remember. Within a week of hearing your first Jeff Foxworthy joke, you were already sick of hearing him, because all of your friends would come to you and tell the same joke all day long every day.

The same thing happened with "Here's your sign". It got overplayed and died faster than "You might be a redneck", mainly because Jeff Foxworthy was a little more creative and had more material.

Already, the "git-r-done" catchphrase is old enough to evoke feelings of boredom and discontent. My mind instantly translates it to any of the 1 "I'm Rick James" jokes there ever were. I can't wait until every one of my friends makes sure to say "Git-R-Done" in every paragraph, just like they did with Dave Chappelle.

In 2 months the blue collar comedy tour will only be funny to those who are trying to be cool by repeating the jokes, and after 2 more months it won't exist anymore. Fad humor dies the fastest.

Larry the Cable Guy will be in town on, I think, the 20th. But I'll be in Illinois... oh well!

Anyway, I <3 the Blue Collar Comedy tour movie

That "git r done" thing is retarded and Larry the Cable is not a very good comedian. The other ones are alright. I like Bill Engval the best out of any of them. The "Tater Salad" guy is pretty good too. Foxworthy is alright, but not the best. "Blue Collar TV" is an abomination however and must be stopped.
