    I spent about three hours with Craig a few months ago and I can tell you he's an extremely great guy- not at all Hollywood, very friendly and humble.

    It was amazing.
    I found someone to take the ticket at the last minute.

    My seats were incredible as I purchased them the day of onsale, back in March ( 7 months ago).
    5th row Dead Center.
    My first time at Carnegie Hall- really old, ornate place, only holding approx 2800 people. ( very small )

    Craig brought the 2 guys from his show ( the big black dude and the little white guy who always wears the leather outfits )
    No Geoffrey Pederson - but it was still great .

    He actually warned everyone in the first minute of his schtick ,
    saying that he uses the " F " word alot and if you didnt like that ,
    it was going to be a long night .


    Craig talked alot of his protestant upbringing in Scotland,
    his alcoholism , and his childhood as well as his raising his 8 year old son.
    Of course alot about sex,
    and yes the man curses alot during the show.
    He did alot on celebrity sex scandals- including his boss', David Letterman .

    He closed off the night bringing out his sidekicks- dressed in all white,
    and the performed a choreographed llyp-synching of
    Britney Spears " Oops I Did It Again" , which was hilarious as usual .

    Great night !

    nice review. I don't know that much about him, but he sounds like a funny guy, so maybe I'll check out his show on CBS sometime.

    Ferguson carries that show all by himself.

    Reminds me of old days Letterman show ( over at NBC ),
    Low budget and all, still awesome late night comedy.

    This was my 3rd time seeing CF,
    and even hearing recycled material,
    the accents and voices and all,
    was still very funny.
    He spent some time on growing up in Scotland,
    as usual lots of sexual inuendo,
    his German Gustapo routines,
    and living with little babies and not getting any sleep.
    The real reason i went was that Josh Robert Thompson was the opening act.
    =D>
    This guys voiceovers and imopressions are spot on.
    Of course he did Morgan Freeman and Regis Philbin readig excerpts from
    50 Shades Of Grey.
    He also talked about making a video that went viral on the internet,
    getting a cease and desist order from Morgan Freeman, & havng to take down the video .
    :lol:

    He also did Swartzeneger , Robert De Niro , Mathew McConaughey,
    & Robert Downey Junior.

    He was brilliant.

    During viewer mails and tweets,
    Craig and Geoff spoke a little bit about the NYC trip.

    They were in the same hotel as Jimmy Page,
    and apparently they saw him eating breakfast..
    :lol:
    :shock:

    here come the playas'


    P.S. - i'm liking the CBS 'executive',... Beth,..

    I'm a huge fan of both Craig & Josh! I haven't read either of his books yet, but I'm going to try and change that really soon. I wanted to go to the show in Greensburg so bad! Sadly I couldn't manage to :( I hope he does another tour really soon, even though it means reruns ;):D
