Jimmy Carr @ Wales Millennium Centre
It’s no surprise that Jimmy Carr didn’t include the war amputee joke in his set of Rapier Wit that caused such a fuss when he told it to a 2,500 strong Manchester crowd.
Jimmy Carr is not exactly known for his family orientated content. But he is a crowd pleaser, the only thing people do other than laugh at a Jimmy Carr gig is tut.
Like all comedians Jimmy Carr got a lot of heckles, but he’s the only comedian I know of that actually offers the audience a chance to heckle him. My theory is that he can demonstrate his quick-wit, but you’ve got to admit, he is very fast with his comebacks.
Having met the mastermind of jokes-you-don’t-think-you-should-find-funny, it has to be said that he’s actually quite a nice guy. Carr meets his fans during the interval and after the show for autographs and pictures. He makes performing for nearly two hours look easy, and I’m sure he would make a joke about that comment.
It’s hard to decide which one of his tours is his best, but Rapier Wit is right up there!
