Got last minute tix to Jerry Seinfeld. I was surprised he had someone open for him. To me, a comedian opening with another is a no win scenario. If he's not as good as Jerry we're feeling ripped off. If he's as good we're feeling Jerry's being watered down. If he's better than Jerry, egads. It was too close to call at times. Honest.\n\nPlaying Caesars is only playing one of the best theaters in the country. It's like 4000 people in there. You have to be a Carlin or Cosby or someone who can carry on for a quite a while. Someone who can knock us dead slowly but effectively.\n\nI love Jerry but he frankly isn't this league. I think Lewis Black and Chris Rock are better at a theater this size. He didn't suck, but like his classic sitcom, you left feeling the hour or so had ultimately been about nothing. George Carlin, rest his cranky soul, would never blow such an opportunity.\n\nA Note To Jerry:\n\nThe night I went some lady asked \"Where's Kramer?\" in your final Q&A session. You responded kind of offended and said, hey, this is MY show. You've got to understand nearly every last audience member was their because of your sitcom. So, instead of being a sitting duck for someone to look back with some awkward question like that, be in front of it. If I were you, I'd be ready to do impressions of every cast member. You might think you suck at impressions, but no one will care. That will only make it funnier. If you're passable or even kind of good at impersonating those characters, the audience will literally swoon for you. Trust me.
