    He makes up for it with the (plastic) cover charge.

    This must have been written a couple months ago. I remember they talked for a few days of playing games in empty stadiums, possibly in Arizona and Florida (since players were already there.)

    Gallagher should be the mascot for “social distancing”. Everyone who goes to his shows knows to stay at least 6 feet away from the stage to avoid being splatted by his “Sledge-o-matic”! ;D

    Rumor has it when Gallagher first performed his act in London the audience found it quite smashing!

    Gallagher may be facing empty seats for other reasons…

    Reviews I’ve read of his shows in the 2000’s are sad…

    Paranoid, bigoted rants, unfunny homophobic putdowns…

     

    A young man in the audience had his baseball cap backwards… Gallagher said that showed he was gay…

    because he couldn’t tell his front from his rear.

    And he told a woman who called her baby girl “Sam” that it would give her lesbian tendencies.

    He railed about President Obama… whether you like him or not, Gallagher’s “jokes” about him were over the top racist and obscene.

     

    Even Howard Stern apparently thought he was nuts.

    I hope he’s doing better now.

    Not a nice thing to say about a great comedian. I’ve seen him several times and the audience was full every time.
