what else i did on my wonderful over my wonderful holiday break i went down to
the comedy store
did a set had a great time and i was driving home you know and uh driving along
sunset
just starting to listen to my tunes and all of a sudden i go by this venue
and i look and what do i see i see dave chapelle and john mayer are doing a
show i'm like get the
out of here right so i call up a buddy of mine that books all the shows and i
said hey what's
what's the story with this does john mayer you know come out with his band you
know does dave
go on first does john go on first blah blah blah he's like no what happens is
john comes out plays
like four songs he brings dave out dave does stand up for an hour an hour and a
half and then he brings
john back out and then they just sort of riff as dave talks about shit john
will play the music
underneath and i was like i gotta see that so uh me and my me and the lovely nia
we went down there
uh because i never take a route on new year's eve because that is the original
saint patrick's day
um plus i go to the rose bowl the next day so i need to get my sleep before i
get absolutely hammered and
passed out in a chair for a couple hours missing my meatballs up um so we went
down there and um
just had the such a great night and um i don't think i've ever seen that i don't
think i've ever
seen two people that talented like there's usually one genius and then
surrounded by a bunch of people
who are just sitting there isn't he amazing i'm so happy to be playing bass
with this genius or i'm so
happy to be i don't know whatever the else i'm so happy to be in the ice capades
with this twirling
genius right it was two of them and what i kind of noticed about both of them
is that they just so like
most genius minds they they kind of they get rid of all the white noise
everything about every bit that
chappelle did was just like there was no fat on it and he got right to the
point another thing that i
loved was um i can't believe that i've been in this business long enough that
we're like the older guys
now it always blows my mind that i'm like five years older than dave chappelle
because he was already a
made guy when i came in so i always look at him like he's got 10 years on me
you know or 15 and
you know just when i watch his act i'm like this guy's clearly been doing this
a good couple of
decades longer than me and the reality is i think he's only been doing it like
six years longer than
i have or something like that he's amazing and what i love too is
just he's that same um with all that's changed everybody getting offended all
of this crap how
you get in trouble he hasn't changed at all he's just like that same guy that i
saw way back in the
day when i used to go to the boston comedy club and watch him go on it like two
in the morning
and just start murdering at two in the morning and i remember he's always sit
there going how
the how do you do that how are you that funny at two in the morning in front of
a crowd that gave up
on the show like an hour ago and they're tired they just want to go home that
second he steps on stage
boom he just like he just starts killing so um you know dave's up there murdering
me and nia are like
just laughing dying having a great time and um and then he brings john mayer
back on i don't want to
ruin the show for him because i don't know how many they're gonna do but uh
basically if dave was up
there and he was just saying like you know i was watching fucking hawaii 5-0
like john whatever he
fucking riffs it's clearly that dave is just ripping like mayor can play
whatever the he said and dave
said that at one point he goes i don't know if you guys realize this but john
mayer can play whatever
he hears and then he just started doing all this crazy like make his guitar
sound like a cat or a car
beeping like it went beyond i could play songs like he could just do noises
around the house
but it was it was it was incredible um so if you get a chance i don't know you
know if you get a chance
to go see the show definitely uh definitely go do it um all right and with that
let me uh speaking of
which let me promote this um uh the patrice o'neill comedy benefit i forgot to
ask dave
chapelle if he ever wanted to come in and do it god damn it um anyways
