    Looking at show options for my upcoming trip and i see that Brad will be there hosting at his cabaret.

    I know comedy clubs can be great or awful depending on the line up for that night

    How is the Venue ? what type of seating do they have ?

    Does Brad really add to the show?

    Should i expect to pay full price or are discounts easy to find ?

    I have been to this club many times and always enjoyed myself. All seats are good. Not really sure what you're asking about the seating. Its typical comedy club. Small tables with chairs and a few booths. My tickets have always been comped so I do not know about discount tickets

    Thanks for the reply , i meant was it table /booth seating or theatre seating so i got my answer with your post, i hate seating at a table with a stranger(solo trip) so i might look at other options for that night

    Thanks i looked at them and it was the exact same price than the mlife website

    They also have bar seating way off to the side and at the back (near the entrance). I've sat solo at those spots. In fact, basically nobody sits at the bar in the back since it is far from the stage, but I think it is actually a better view than many of the tables

    Gotta agree he was Hilarious, i had tears flowing, he just picked on 3-4person in the crowd all night long and he was ruthless, a few people left cause they were offended.
    This was not everybody loves Raymond it was 21+ and i loved it.

    All the jokes about his basement theatre and career going down the toilet were great as well

    We're taking in his show at the Seminole Hard Rock in January. Looking forward to the evening...since we won't be in Vegas, we'll just be here at the Bubba Bellagio.

    I'm looking for tickets for Feb 23rd. Any suggestions for any kind of discount? (Brad Garrett IS performing.) I need seven tickets, so these are adding up fast...

    Cant help for discount but keep in mind all the venue except for the booths in the back are tables of 2 and its all GA and there's someone escorting you and usually picking a table for you, you cant go in alone and hold off a bunch of tables by putting purses/jackets on chairs so to get 4 tables in the same area you will have to show up very early to the club

    check schedule to see when Brad is playing. He only does so many shows a month. Wasn't there for the 2 weeks we were there in Oct/Nov

    I called and bought our 7 tickets with MLife discount and only $3.50pp fee rather than almost $20pp fee through Ticketmaster. Total was $511 vs $711. I'm satisfied. I've done this show with Brad Garrett before so we know to arrive early and tip maƮtre d.

    We used to hit up all the comedy clubs in Vegas and we've to clubs in Philly and NYC. We need to get back to that. Had to take a break as we started to see the same people. We were regulars at the Comedy Stop at the Trop in AC and had some juice with the people that worked there. Always sat us up front. My wife got into an argument with JJ Walker there. That was funny. But they changed their people and then closed up.

    Never been to a comedy club that was awful.

    How can you tell who is performing on what nights? The schedule I seen does not show who the headliner is on a particular night?

    I've been there twice when he's been there, both times fantastic. First time with my son (his 21st) and in the front row. Brad's show is mostly audience interaction so being in the front row makes you a target lol. When he's performing he actually opens and does a good 20-30 minutes. Then the first comic comes out, then Brad comes out again for a few minutes. Then the second comic and then Brad comes out to wrap things up. A really really good time. Don't worry about discounts, just pay and enjoy the show.
