David Sedaris fans...

I know most of you are not in the Portland area, but I just found out that David Sedaris is going to be at the Merrill Auditorium in April - I'm so excited, but it's kind of pricey, so DH and I going back and forth on whether or not to buy tickets - they range from $52-72.  Have any of you seen him live?

OMG...in the process of double-checking the ticket prices, I just saw that Jerry Seinfeld will be there in June - I am an embarrassingly huge Seinfeld fan and am now thinking of swapping out $52 David Sedaris tickets for $56 Jerry tickets...   Embarrassed

  • I pink puffy heart David Sedaris- wish I was going to be in Maine in April! DH and I just found out that Jim Gaffigan is going to be doing a show @ Foxwoods on June 25th, and I really want to go (even though I'll be about 15 months pregnant!), I absolutely adore him, and my he looks almost exactly like my brother!

  • I've never seen Sedaris live, but I'll admit that I was super tempted to go. But the ticket prices just are hard to swallow. My DH would rather spend that kind on money to see Blue Man Group and actually have a lot to see.

  • I took Seth to see David Sedaris at Merrill a couple years ago. To be honest...I wasn't super impressed. There were definitely some funny moments but by intermission I wanted to go have a cocktail.

    I think I expected him to do more off the top of his head stuff and he read at a podium instead.

    So I suppose I was disappointed because I had set an expectation.

    I LOVE David Sedaris' books!! I'm kind of glad to hear he wasn't so great in person, because there is no way I could swing that much for a ticket to go see him. Now I don't feel so bad! ;)

  • Oh, that's disappointing to hear, Shuga!  I guess that means I'll be dropping my dollars on Jerry. Tickets go on sale Friday - I can't wait.

    I also LOVE Jim Gaffigan - I saw him live once and I laughed out the loud the entire time, even though he basically did his Beyond the Pale show, which I have seen on Comedy Central a million times.  I would pay to see him again in a heartbeat.

    I love David Sedaris also, but not in my budget right now!  The audio tapes will have to suffice.

    That would be awesome if Amy was touring with him. She's awesome!
