    theg got that pma

    Nov 11, 2016
    Just watched Elephant in the Room and got an itch for more great standup.

    Used to see standup live every week locally but there was some local bs non compete contract s--- that made the local club stop booking comedians for 2 years, so I'm still waiting for that to pass before I can go see locals again. Scratch my itch, what are your favorites. Elephant in the room is as close to 10/10 as I've ever seen a stand up special. About to watch Bill Burr's "Why do I do this?"

    Post your favorite.

    Anything from Dave Chappelle, Louis CK or Bill Burr is pure gold.

    Chappelle needs another special. I saw him live late 2014 i think and his set was pretty much on par with his past specials. Best comedy show ive ever been to
