I, too, am on the Goodnights mailing list, and got this today. Of these listed, I might go see Kevin Hart, since his comedy central special was hilarious. I know Pollack is a big name, so I might look him up, and John Pinette looks real familiar. Definitely won't see Greg Giraldo because he's a hack who does all the Comedy Central Roasts.

What are your thoughts?

5/8/2009 2:12:09 AM

Kevin Hart is very funny.

5/8/2009 3:08:08 AM

I saw Hal Sparks and he was hilariousss


I'm totally going to see Sinbad

5/8/2009 9:00:03 AM

Worst lineup ever.

5/8/2009 9:01:47 AM

Wow Sinbad is still around?

you know what? fuck you

saucer is great...their tap selection is decent, their bottle selection is insane, and for $18 (it was $13-14 when i joined) you get a t-shirt and free brunch every sunday (i go probably every other week with a group of friends...i've easily made back the $14 dollar bucks)

it's best when you can sit outside on the patio, though

5/8/2009 9:05:33 AM

^ Guess so... but is it worth $33??? Hmm...

5/8/2009 9:05:36 AM

The saucer sucks, go to a real pub.

5/8/2009 9:09:34 AM

^^ $33?

^ oh, i have and i do...but love me some saucer...i'm also not a snob, so that's probably why i'm able to go there

I like that the Saucer is pretty much guaranteed to have smaller beers that other bars in Raleigh won't have in stock. Sometimes I get all nostalgic for the stuff made in other places I've lived and they're the most likely to have them

5/8/2009 9:16:58 AM

5/8/2009 9:29:58 AM

i like how they rated them all "Rated R (mild)"

didnt think "R" could really be mild.

except sinbad who's "PG-18" lol

That's how much tickets to Sinbad are

5/8/2009 9:56:49 AM

i think i'd pay that much for sinbad just out of nostalgia. i used to watch his standup all the time when i was a kid. one of a few comedians i loved who didnt have to be completely dirty or curse all the time to be funny.

5/8/2009 10:05:31 AM

John Pinette is the fat guy in the Seinfeld finale, he was carjacked and they got arrested for not helping him

5/8/2009 10:26:33 AM

Andy Dick, May 15-16
John Oliver from the Daily Show, May 23 at Stewart Theater NCSU

At least I'll include a picture!

Hope I can get off in time to make it to the 10:15 show!!

shit, i might have to catch some of those. namely sinbad and greg giraldo.

Ahhh, no wonder. I actually looked him up last night on youtube and his fast food stuff sounded vaguely familiar (get out of the line)

5/8/2009 3:07:16 PM

I'm seeing Ben Bailey tomorrow! Can't wait! I just hope he doesn't bring his wife. That would mess up my plans a little bit haha.

5/8/2009 3:09:03 PM

I work at Goodnights and I am really excited about the comedians this summer.

Ben Bailey is now one of my favorite comedians. He is not what I expected at all. Greg Giraldo is fucking hilarious and so is Sinbad. I cannot wait for Daniel Tosh to come back because he is my all time favorite comedian.

If anyone has suggestions for comedians let me know! I will pass it along.

5/14/2009 3:53:15 PM

5/15/2009 6:32:57 PM

I just found out we are getting the Broken Lizard Group!! The guys who did Super Troopers and Beerfest! They will be here Halloween weekend.

6/11/2009 2:12:09 PM

^ hey, don't forget Club Dread. One of the funniest endings to a movie I have ever seen.

6/11/2009 2:17:50 PM

I was happy with Ben Bailey son.

6/11/2009 2:36:44 PM

oh god sinbad is coming up soon.

and ^^^, that sounds awesome.

6/11/2009 2:43:50 PM

the 10 year old in me would love to go see Sinbad

6/11/2009 2:45:13 PM

Daniel Tosh will be at the Progress Energy center in November

6/11/2009 2:58:02 PM

I want to go and see Pinnette.

I'll be there, most likely. I wonder if/how you can meet the comedians when its a bigger show

6/11/2009 9:25:53 PM

you guys should go see Pollack play this weekend

the guy opening for him, "Big A", is from Raleigh, and he's FUCKING HILARIOUS

you will not regret it

6/11/2009 9:35:17 PM

Big A is pretty fucking awesome.

6/11/2009 10:55:54 PM

good golly Sinbad is an ugly motherfucker

6/11/2009 11:24:24 PM

Daniel Tosh is hands down my favorite comedian. It is very unlikely he will talk to anyone after the show. When he was at Goodnights he sat in a dark room and watched tv while listening to his ipod.....the whole time. Pollak, sinbad, and pinette are going to be fucking great.

6/11/2009 11:49:43 PM

seriously, go see Kevin Pollack and Big A.

unless you don't like funny.

6/12/2009 12:15:28 AM
