I, and everyone around me laughed for 2 and a half hours.
Aries Spears is HIGH-larious
This is the third time I have seen Aries Spears and he gets funnier each time.
He is non stop laughter on stage, and it seems like he performs for a long time.
My only warning, is if you are easily offended, don't go. He jokes about things that maybe some people may not think are funny.
But he doesn't apologize for it, and I love that about him.
If you can't laugh at some things? Then what are we here for?
I also love that he chastizes people who won't shut up while he is on stage. I was seated next to the "drunk" table and they were getting on MY nerves. We were in front of the stage to the side and I could clearly see his face. He looked over at them with stink eye quite a few times, giving them the chance to shut up. They didn't, and he let them have it.
We applauded !!
I highly recommend Aries Spears....and Cobb's is the best club in the City !!
It was different
We drove 3 hours to see the show. The location is quite intimate, i sat in the second row of tables. The show was going really well, until he claims he was being heckled by a gentleman in the front row, which i sitting near, but was not able to hear. Aries became a bit overly dramatic and it just killed it for me. I was no longer liking his attitude and how he would say "ok, i'm gonna end the show."
The issue with the gentlemen became the subject of the show and was not funny, I would not pay or go see Aries spears for free. For being in the industry so long, he could have handled the issue much more professionally instead of being so dramatic.
