Jo Koy Chicago reviews
Not What I Expected
So this was my first time watching Jo Koy’s stand up comedy in person but I had high hopes because I had watched clips of his work on Netflix, FB and IG. He was very funny to me especially me being a Filpina American - I can definitely relate to his jokes. But in D.C., no clue what happen?! I think perhaps he was tapped out from how world tour? So he began preaching positive advice, singing and roasting the front row. He didn’t pitch too many jokes as I would have like so that was upsetting :-(
Awesome
I never sought out to watch a Jo Koy comedy special. My wife enjoyed his comedy more than I did. I got the tickets as a Christmas present for my wife. Buy, after the show at the United Center, I felt like I gave myself this gift too. I felt that I had just watched one of the great ones. To say the least, I'd put Jo Koy up there with Richard Pryor, Eddie Murphy, Gabriel Iglesias and Tig Notaro. I very much appreciated the story of his journey as well. "If they say No, show them why they should've said Yes". I will always carry those words with me. Thank you Jo.
