Russel Peters sucks, same materials all the time and his transitions are always the same. Dude can't make his shows flow nice, gotta be natural like chappelle ... See him live and you know what I mean. Chappelle makes it feel like he's just chillin with you.

So how was it? I passed by and it was too packed and claustrophobic for my liking. Did not expect it to be as packed as the Michael Jackson tribute they had on Canada Day!

The supermodels, Willy? That's all they are. Bottled promise. Scenes from a brand new day. Hope dancing in stiletto heels.

review: first time seeing russel peters and I wasn't impressed - though I heard he's normally quite explicit racial and had to turn it down since there were a lot of kids in the audience

Wow it sucked. Too packed. Couldn't see or hear shot. I was so annoyed by all the old immigrants that made up half the crowd but they didn't even know what was going on. You wouldn't believe how many people were in the middle of the crowd asking me who is on the stage and why is everyone there. Ok that's all, rant over.
