Russell Peters and friends were fan-f*ckin-tas-tic! His two guests, Ahmed Ahmed and Jo Koy were surprising good as well. DJ Scratch started off the night with his superb DJ-ing and turntable skills which was sooooo good, I would have stood up and start dancing if I had some booze prior to walking in to the concert hall.
Throughout his one hour stand-up, Russell did not repeat his already famous jokes which, if you were a fan, would have seen it via his DVD or through youtube. His humours were mainly made against those pity souls sitting at the front row esp. the Aussie family of 4 and the stereotyped Indian family of 5 where the dad and his son are....well, you guessed it, DOCTORS. He also cracked jokes from the diversed nationalities & heritages of his audiences which includes Chinese, Indians, Arabs, Middle East, African American, Persians, Greeks, Sri Lankans and Italians.
Ahmed Ahmed & Jo Koy both had their respective way of doing their stand-ups. Ahmed was more similar to Russell in a way that he, too, cracked up jokes based on different nationalities and his Egyptian background (of how hard it was to have some Al-Qaeda terrorist sharing the same name as his and how 'random' it was to be selected for screen test everytime he boarded a plane).
Jo Koy on the other hand, took the stage by humiliating the Governator, the members of his family, mainly his mother and his 3 year old kid. Being an Asian himself (he's Phillipino btw), I find it easier to relate myself with the jokes he cracked esp. those of his mum speaking bombastic words such as gallovanting and extravaganza....coz my mum used to use the word 'gallovanting' as well....He also made fun while honouring women's biggest contribution to the world, giving birth.
Must google their stand-ups right now and laugh the sh*t outta ya, RIGHT NOW! Overall, the whole 2 hours was a nice time, although the seat was freaking uncomfortable I end up having headaches and backaches until this morning! And, I've been laughing sooo hard that two hours I think I would be able to laugh anymore for the next 5 days!
Don't be surprised seeing me looking like these in the coming few days....I've used up my laughing potion last night....
I am soooooooooo excited! It's 3 pm now.......another 5 hours and I will be seeing RUSSELL!!! OMG OMG OMG! I can't wait!!!
Look out Sydney, Russell's in the house! In Opera House!
