Dane Cook, Rough Around the Edges Tour...new material?

[Lockecole]

Sooo yeah yeah, I know alot of people dislike Dane Cook, so no debates about how much he sucks here. Just curious if his new 25 city tour is new material, or old stuff. Mainly because he's gonna be where I work and I can get tickets, but would have to miss another event (or part of it at least) Anyone know, anyone gonna go to any of these events?

[Mizango]

I doubt there is much new material, probably just a "best of" per se. New material, Funny and Dane Cook are all examples of a collective oxymoron.

[Exoduso]

Cook steals his material anyways.

[Vandole]

yeah, his "new" material has already been said by different comedians already.

[Lockecole]

Wow 3 replies of what I specifically didnt ask for. Thanks anyway?

[Exoduso]

It kind of comes with the territory.

As per your original inquiry though, it probably isn't and even if it was.. I wouldn't miss something else to go see Dane Cook..

Nvm checked youtube, it seems to be all original, guess it'll be worth my time....I did play FFXI for 4 years, so Im used to wasting 3 hours of my life a day if it sucks.

There's definitely some repeats, he did the kool-aid thing when I went (friend had an extra ticket). Not a huge Cook fan though, so can't really tell you what the new/old ratio was.

A friend of mine went to indy this weekend to see him. Don't know if that particular show was part of this tour, but his reaction when I asked him how it was....

"meh"

I hate people who just say that when they have no idea wtf they are talking about. Have any evidence? I know I'll go if he comes to NM. I think hes good.

Yeah I watched one skit he had about the History channel, it was meh, I laughed a couple times, but not the best of his work. Hope the rest isnt like it.

He's about as generic as everyone says him to be, but what really gets me are those stupid baseball commercials he does. "Spiderman? Psh, yeah, I guess he's okay, for being fake. Sorry, but I like watch REAL heroes" and then it cuts to baseball. What a load of shit.

I think what people find amazing about dane cook isn't his ability to tell a joke (or revise one), it's how he delivers it. Im not a huge Dane cook fan (ironically, I love demitri martin) but noone really delivers a joke better than dane cook. Wasn't this supposed to "not" turn into a dane cook debate.

dane cook is hilarious

Oh wow, 3 jokes that anyone could have told. It's not like they are original, who hasn't gone into a shoe store and they said "Oh hey but we have a 11 instead of a 12."? It's not like the "original" teller is coming up with anything new.

But the teller isn't getting paid for his words.

Getting paid for an everyday, reoccurring thing is definitely not greedy.
