[Jethro Bodine]

Just heard he is going to do his first tour since suddenly quitting his show in 2005.
Can't wait! :clap2:ound:

I heard his comedy has gotten pretty weird after he's been off:

He is back from Africa...awesome...i love his physical humour too!!!

 

[BORKO]

So he asks people not to record, they are recording, so he doesn't perform. I kind of get it, but I too feel he may have gone too far since he quit.

Yeah but you can usually just get bouncers to throw the people out if they are recording or heckling.

I think he has gone a little over the deep end though:

All the dates scheduled are in the USA. The closest I'd assume are the Colorado and California dates:

It was the same when Russell Peters came to town. Lots of warning to not record or take pics or you would be removed from Rogers Arena. Some were caught in my section about 10 minutes into the show and they got tossed.

he is one of the stars that alludes to ie actually talks about what is really going on in Hollywood - it is a microcosm of what is going on in the world - people see and hear these things all the time but just dismiss it and judge the people as "crazy"
As Dave says - "Crazy is a dismissive term. These people are not crazy, they are strong intelligent people. So what is going on?"

part 2 Dave Chappelle and Africa

Randy Quaid talked about it right here in Vancouver _ everybody called him crazy??? He is not. He is sane and intelligent.

Endless scummy business people/lawyers in this world. You have to protect yourself and rely on no one, and trust no one. Sadly, sometimes that can even mean family members or best friends...

 

[Jethro Bodine]

Inside the Actor's Studio is great.
Here's the entire Chappelle interview. Very revealing!

Maybe he's got a misdemeanor

Not sure if serious... I thought he used to do the Just for Laughs festival in Montreal?
