Yes, I understand that we are at war, but the coverage!!!! ARGH.......WTF is the point of the all news channels, if the other "main" stations are gonna broadcast 24/7 as well!!

That said.....I am praying that all of our men and women over there will get the job done and be home safe and sound very soon.

Ooh.....look at that NBC is finally broadcasting a show.....

What has gone on since early March, LOL.......

Let's see......the comedy show SUCKED ASS

Here is the email that I sent to the CEO of Rascal's

Looking back a month ago, I had the best intentions for planning a fun night out for the girls. We were going to see Darrell Hammond and ENJOY the night out. Somewhere in that month, the comic was changed to Tim Jones, for $15/person, and then by last week, it was Mike Epps for $25.

We figured, "who could go wrong". This comic's ticket price is higher than average, and "it's Rascal's, we're bound to have a great time".

We're we ever wrong. I'd have to say that last night's show was so non-entertaining. The lack of laughs from the audience, and Mike's own comments like "wow, you guys are really not liking my jokes" proves my point.

Mike seemed, at many times through the night, like he had NO idea where he was going and it was very obvious to those at our table and around us. We heard many comments during his perfomance and on the way out.

I was SEVERELY disappointed that the club felt that his ticket price should be higher than average, as well. I don't think I would be as upset if he was a $15 comic. I certainly don't feel like that perfomance last night commanded a $25 ticket price.

From your website....."Mike is truly one of the finest and funniest comedians working today." If this is true, that I might as well forget about laughing for the rest of my life. I enjoy comedy shows, Comedy Central, and other shows I've been to at your establishment. I really felt sorry for those who still had to come in for the 10:30 show.

I am sorry that I didn't cancel my night and go to the movies with the girls when we saw that Darrell Hammond was no longer playing......

I hope that if I ever come back to Rascal's that I will have a more positive experience.


Here is the reply I received from him......

Donna
I'm sorry that you did not have a good time with us and would like to offer you and your group
free tickets to another show. I hope you don't stop laughing because of one show, please pick
a show from our calendar and we will comp the tickets
hope to see you soon
thank you


I also want to mention that two of the other gals also sent similar letters to mine, and received similar responses, so in actuality, we have 18 tickets coming to us, LOL.

I wrote back to him requesting DL Hughley tickets, but surprise, surprise, I got his read receipt, but no reply. I didn't think we could get tickets for him, but hey, it was worth a shot. Now we are looking to go in early May to a comic that isn't listed on the site yet, but we "heard" he was gonna be there. I don't have too much faith in the Rascals booking people, as I always seem to see a "change" on their website.

The girls also want to go see Nine on broadway. We still haven't made it to see Chicago in the movies. Last time we tried, it was sold out in the two theaters that we went to, and ended up seeing About Schmidt

So......the next weekend was my sister-in-law's baby shower......I made it through with a smile on my face, but inside my stomach was churning, LOL The babies should be making their arrival within the next 3-6 weeks and they should be "okay". I was just a tad annoyed that no one told me she was registered. That's okay though, Steffi and I hit the Kohl's sale and got $134 worth of Carter's, Healthtex and LittleMe outfits for $32. Add that to the diapers and other misc. stuff I got her, and I ended up spending $100 anyway.
