Bill Burr: Live at Red Rocks

After "friends who kill" I had ridiculously low expectations for this so much that I almost didn't watch it. The first 15 minutes, maybe more, weren't all that but eventually it gets better, if you're a Bill Burr fan that is because it's his usual anger-fueled, unfiltered harangue type comedy he's known for, so it gets better as it goes. I don't think it's his best work but after friends who kill the bar was pretty low. In my opinion Paper Tiger is his best work and it'll always be one of my favorite specials so I always watch his latest specials with that in mind. This was still good though, my favorite was his bit on feminism and how women are better, and his interaction with kitchen or tv with his daughter. As bill burr has mentioned on several occasions previously he's not a well read man but I love how he always tries to make his argument reasonable or make sense logically, I love it when comedians say something that's politically incorrect but can make you think "well he's not wrong though". This is him going back to the bill burr we love, ranting about everything he thinks is silly with the world. It's a bit meh at the beginning and maybe I just feel that way because he went on topics such as the woke agenda and Covid which have been tuckered out by every other comedian recently that it feels like a cheap shot to me even if it's good; but the other ¾ of the show was a solid 7 if this is your type of humor.

Bill Burr quality Stand up in a beautiful location but with the most horrible audience. Just shows how much Bill Burr is a professional to continue with all the stupid 'Yeah or Woo' shouts that generated regardless of the content.

This wasn't even comedy but just facts . Funny as hell haha but too honest for cancel culture to handle . That right there is art , expressing of opinions that are supposed to be simple and true but in this world we live in , Bill Burr could be punished for his artistic expression of how he views the world . It's worth a watch.

I set my expectations a bit low before watching this. I'm a big Bill Burr fan but his last TV special was the awful Friends Who Kill. Admittedly it was a multi-comedian event and he was just the host but even his segment felt forced and far below his usual standard.

I needn't have worried. Back in his element - performing alone and with an hour or so to comment on and rant about anything he likes - Bill Burr is fantastic. The humour is un-PC and irreverent, not just going where the serially offended fascists don't want comedians to go but also pointing out the stupidity and lack of balance in their views.

It's not just anti-woke, there's also some hilarious observations on family life and life in general. This all done in Burr's inimitable intense, over-the-top fashion.

Excellent show.

It's a good standup set, doesn't compare to "you people are all the same" as it lacks a bit of the ire that he had years ago. It's solid, entertaining, it will offend but also make you think and it goes by quickly enough. My wife was laughing hard at some points but ultimately fell asleep during the "family life" segment.
