Dave, As someone who strives to be funny, it's humbling to tell someone else how funny they are but you truly earned my admiration.    Your sense of timing and microphone control was outstanding.   It was a Vegas level performance in New Britain, Connecticut.  More so, the ability to keep the routine for so long was amazing. Anyone looking to have you help with a fundraiser not only should know how much fun it will be for all, but also how long you perform.  Two hours would have been well worth it, but three hours is incredible.   Your performance is one that when the audience walks away, they want to call their friends to tell them how great it was, but thier friends won't understand unless they were there. I'm sure we will see you in future years.  Thanks for making so many people laugh for so many good causes. Jim Bengiovanni Berlin, CT ******************************************** Dave ,  Wow what a show !!! My wife and I got a call  last night at about 5 Pm that our friends had some extra Beef and Beer tickets (fundraiser to all that live outside of Jersey). We live about 30 miles away in Washington Township. So I was not so quick to jump on for a beef and beer. None the less in Millville. My buddy John Scotti  said that he had seen you on Lettermen and heard that you had been on HBO. I’ll be quite honest with you, I didn’t know what to expect.  We go to comedy shows all the time in Philly and AC. We watch last comic standing every time it is on. You are up there with some of the most funny people I have ever witnessed.  On the way home my wife and I agreed that you were better then Larry the Cable Guy who we saw 2 weeks ago and better then Dane Cook who we saw earlier this year. We laughed our asses off and several times had to wipe the laughter tears away.  Dude I would refer you to anyone who is looking for a entertainer for a event. And I will be talking about your show to my friends, family and colleagues until the next time I see you.  Til the next time Bro !!!!  Sincerely, Curt Tegeler Executive Vice President ScreenDreamer, LLC ******************************************** Dave,    I recently saw you at the sons of Shennana(as you called it) in Old Bridge and I must say you were hysterical.. I have seen many comedians from Mitch Fatel to Robin Williams and I have to admit I have never laughed as hard for as long as I did that night.. First of all I find amazing you had 3 hours worth of material and made it seem so seamless.. Great Job!!...  Take care and can't wait to see you again soon.. John F. Emilio VP of Operations FK General Contractors Inc. NJ ***************************************** Hey Dave. I was at the 3/6 comedy performance in North Windham that you did for Network, Inc. I am the accountant here and we really appreciate you helping us make money for our client basic needs fund. This is the second time I've seen you (the first being in the amazing town of Moosup, CT) and I have to tell you that of all the comedy shows I've seen over the years, you definitely stand out and made me laugh the entire time for both shows. Life is too short to take yourself seriously and I so appreciate your humor. I know you're a busy guy so you don't have to reply but I just wanted to thank you again for being you :) Marilyn Tilley ************************************** Dave, I saw you at a show in Philadelphia about three weeks ago. I must tell you that I am 77 years old and have seen many a comedian in my time, but without a doubt you are the funniest and greatest one that I have ever seen. You worked the crowd with the best of them. There's no one that even comes close to your performance and your ability. I am surly going to see you again when you come to neck of the woods. I am on your emailing list and am waiting for that event. I spoke to a lot of people who was at that party and they all agree with my feeling, and you did it with out saying the F word. They said that Jacky Gleason was the greatest  but that only means that they never saw you because you are the GREATEST.  Thank you  Lou Molino Philadelphia, PA 19128 **************************************** Hi Dave: I want to thank you very much for making our fundraiser a huge success!!   Your show was terrific - I have been getting incredible feedback from everyone I have talked to who was there.   It was a blast!!   We are hoping you will come back again and work with us - we know that the next show will sell out - just by the word of mouth from people who were there that night. Just so you know....Otis is alive and well!! Thanks again, Dave - look forward to having you come back to Canaan!!   Wendy Eichman Stadium System, Inc. ******************************************** Dave -  My friend's daughter plays on the team and she invited me to the comedy fundraiser on Saturday night  in Whitman.  It was THE BEST comedy show I've seen.  And I never expected that long of a show. (over 3 hours!)  We had a great time.  Probably the best time I've had in our sleepy town since I moved there 15 years ago!!   I will be talking about the show for a long time. Thanks for the great time.  Teresa Fettig MA ******************************************** Dave, I was at the Clayton opera house show and thoroughly impressed and entertained. Even though your comment about you were getting info for your next show from our crowd was said in jest; I know there was much truth to it!!!! I really appreciate the length of the show was not proportionate to the size of the crowd--if anything I think you enjoyed our small crowd and the give and take back and forth within it. My wife and I were in the second row so we were close to your magic tricks---you are very good at that --the handkerchief to wine bottle trick was amazing!!! Thanks so much for the great evening. Paul Backus NY ******************************************** Dave, Just wanted to tell you how much we enjoyed the show you did last Thursday at Quinsigamond College for the Nursing students. What a GREAT night and so much fun. My daughter is a student there and so is her daughter . We laughed so hard that I lost my voice (my husband loved that). Your sense of humor is fantastic and we all had a ball...   My husband didn't want to go at first but then said he would have missed a great show and loved all of it. Thanks for a wonderful night. We all needed that seeing everyone's lives are so stressful right now. Looking forward to seeing you again in this area..   Thanks again for making our night fabulous..Keep up the good work and how did you know about the shoes??????Loved it.   Thanks again.   Al & Carolyn Glancey MA ******************************************* Dave, My  Husband and I saw your show at the Kallet Civic Center in Oneida, NY. You were Awesome, we laughed through the whole show. You are an Amazing performer and we are looking forward to seeing your next show here in Oneida. Thanks for a wonderful time and an AMAZING show. Elsie Granger Oneida, NY ****************************************** Hi Dave. The show Friday night was a huge success! Everyone from 20-70 years old thoroughly enjoyed themselves. I was a little worried about the content at first because it was a little different audience than the show at the Elks last fall, but as usual i was worried for no reason, I got so many calls the next day about how people needed a break from life and Friday night they got it. The man you were calling "Jebediah" had a real tough meeting with some town officials that day and he said it really helped him being there. thanks for a great show and we should do it again next year, we'll book the wagon room next year. Sincerely, Dave Harrington Southington, CT Food Bank Fundraiser Event Organizer. ******************************************   Dear Dave,        On behalf of myself, my husband & the Lunachicks Team family, I want to just know how much of a good time we all had with you this past Saturday night 2/28/09, at the Holiday Inn, Fishkill, at our Lunachicks Fundraiser night that you did for us.   You were AWESOME!   We are a brand new organization, brand new name out there in softball, and this event was something that we needed to help us raise money for our girls for this upcoming softball season, and needless to say that everyone who attended our show, has never stopped talking about your show, and cannot wait for us to do this event again.  Our show because of you was a complete success, and we cannot thank you enough.  It was a big task for me to pull this fundraiser event together, and I truly needed to sit back and enjoy myself last Saturday night, and I have to tell you Dave you made this women a very happy women that night.  I never laughed so hard in my life. Your comedy is so true to life, with so much reality, but when your sitting there listening to you, all your life's troubles seem to disappear thanks to you.  You have to be the funniest comedian that I have ever seen, and I and all my family & friends that were at the show that evening cannot wait to come see you again in concert real soon.   I am still receiving phone calls & e-mails about how awesome you were Saturday night, and I am sure that for months to come I still will be.      I also want you to know that maybe next time I can set you up with some body piercings if you would like.  I had know idea that there would have been a body piercing convention going on in the other ballroom that same evening as ours. because,  "I didn't know" Really! Great Job, can't wait to see you again, & again & again. Till then.   Joy Bombace & George Bombace Lunachicks Softball Team Fundraiser Coordinator ********************************************************   Hi Dave Just saw your comedy show with my wife at Infinity Music Hall tonight, February 20th, in Norfolk, CT.  "You were mah-velous," as "Fernando Lamas" would say.  I don't remember when we've laughed so hard, and I watch and listen to comedy almost all of the time.  We were up in Norfolk at a bed and breakfast, heard about the theater, and thought we'd take in a show.  What else was there to do in boondockville?  My wife asked if I ever heard of you, and I said I hadn't. Being that she's always complaining about how much comedy  I watch and listen to, she (and I) had low expectations. I watch the stand-up comedians on Comedy Central, HBO Comedy, One-man comedy specials on HBO, and anyplace else I can catch it (with the exception of MTV, so I missed your appearances there). I DIDN'T KNOW!!! I'm a subscriber to XM Radio, where I'm constantly switching between XM Comedy (now Raw Dog comedy), National Lampoon comedy, and even Blue Collar Comedy.  Again, I DIDN'T KNOW!!!   But as we left the theater tonight my wife and  I had the same thought.  You see every year, for the past five years, my wife and I give our three sons and there significant others (2 wives, one girlfriend) tickets to a Broadway show for their Hanukkah presents.  Let's get six tickets to your next comedy show in our area for this year's present to the kids.  As soon as we got back to the B & B, we looked up your schedule, and were shocked that you had been 4 miles from our house on January 23rd, in Port Jefferson, Long Island, NY!  I DIDN'T KNOW!!!    I hope you'll soon be at a venue close enough for them to get as much joy from your show as we did. You really gave a fabulous show, and we thank you for letting us enjoy it so much. Thanks again. Dr. and Mrs. Barry Ortenberg ****************************************************************** Dave,    We saw you at an event at the Friendly Sons in Old Bridge NJ on Sat Jan 24th. Let me tell u I hadn't laughed that hard and for that long in I don't remember when.The way you were able to just go all nite, well we wont go there just now. Maybe on a Tuesday, you'll make your Petunia happy.       Your act was the funniest thing to come to NJ in a long time. I hope you can make time to come down from Conn and see us again. Maybe at the Stress Factory in New Brunswick NJ, its a well known Comedy Showcase and you should really see about playing it sometime.I'll bring all the drunken Irish folk out to see you,lololol.       Anyway we had a great time and would like to thank you for bring some much needed laughter to us all. They say laughing is a very healthy thing to do. Well Doctor Dave made us all well again.   thanks for a great nite of fun Sally *************************************************** Dave I was at the Maple Grove in "VERMIN" last night and in all my 68 years I have not laughed that hard. I truly enjoyed the bit about the monopoly houses. In truth you were in Rockville (Vernon), Ct. and I really hope you make a return trip. Want to bring some of my friends that were not able to be there last night. A great comedian YOU are. Thanks for a great evening of entertainment.   Sincerely: Claudia Arnold Vermin, CT! *************************   Dave,   I have to write and first of all say a BIG THANK-YOU for an outstanding evening of comedy. YOU were sooooo funny. Dean and I are still laughing, (he of course has been heard to say several times since-"I didn't know"...) and we laugh and laugh. You were incredible, perfect and the way you tied in parts of the evening were great.   You performed at Dean's company Christmas Banquet (Crimson Fire Equipment) near Stevens (you referred to it as Stevensville) PA. I know for a fact you will never forget the evening although I am sure you would like too....   I apologize for the poor behavior of a particular front row attendee...however Dean and I are positive you have more material to pull from now. Ladder trucks, aerials, platforms, etc... We have said it would be very funny to hear one of your shows in the future and listen to the material that you have created as a result of being in Stevens(ville) PA at the Crimson Fire Equipment Dinner. I am sure it will be funny.   Dean and I again wanted you to know that we really enjoyed your show and would love to see you again sometime. Good Luck and God Bless.   Dean and Margie **************************************************** Dave, You did a show this past Saturday night at the Middlesex Elks, Middlesex NJ. The show was more then I ever expected. The audience just went nuts and everyone had a great time. I would definitely recommend you to anyone looking to do a comedy show. Thanks for a good night of fun and laughs. Doug Buro Middlesex Elks House Committee Chairman ****************************************************** Hey Dave, We were the table next to the old people last night on your right.  The four of us never laughed so hard.  My face hurt from laughing so hard!  What a great show!  We would love to see you come to Patriot Place next to Gillette Stadium or the new comedy club in North Attleboro ( we live in Foxboro and North Attleboro, nothing like Dorchester) so that I can send my parents and get some girlfriends to see you. I was at Twin Rivers last weekend to see Richard Lewis with my Mother,  His show was nothing next to yours!!  Too bad for the old people, God help me if I lose my sense of humor when I get old!!!  Thank you for a great night, well worth the drive into Dorchester. Sincerely, Pam, BIll, Carol and Tony ********************************************* Hi Dave, Thank you for a fantastic evening! You just performed at our Relay For Life fundraiser on Friday, April 25, and we all can't stop talking about what a great night it was and how FUNNY you are! We were looking for a way to try and "spice it up" a bit from years past, and did you ever! I must admit, we were a little bit nervous as we didn't know what to expect, but as soon as you came out from behind the curtain, we knew you were going to be great. Don't take this the wrong way, but you are even funny to look at! Everyone had a great time, and everyone could relate to your stories and jokes. What's better than that? At the end of the evening, I was chatting with so many people, and they were still smiling and saying how their faces and sides hurt from laughing so much. What a great night for a great cause. We've already stared talking about next year, and we hope to be able to book you again. Best of luck to you, stay well, and hope to see one of your shows soon. Best regards, Nadine The Relay For Life of Greater Norwood Massachusetts *************************************************** Dave, Your show becomes an inferno when people realize you're not just standing there telling jokes, you're actually enjoying yourself,,,you have the gift! Mark Voss Volney, NY ************************************************** Hi Dave, As the labeled "PTO Mom" in your audience last night, my husband and I and 100 people I've spoken to in the last 16 hours, think you are the absolutely funniest person we have ever seen. We were so worried, as were many people, that because it was a PTO sponsored fundraising event, that the evening was going to be kind of lame. IT SO WAS NOT!!!!!! Everyone around me was crying, because we were laughing so hard. Many of us women looked like raccoons. Honestly, I would have worn waterproof mascara if I known it was going to run down my face all night. We didn't want your performance to end. It was probably one of the best and funniest nights out many of us have had in a long, long time. If laughter truly is the best medicine then you are the Surgeon General of Comedy! Keep up the great work and hopefully we will get the chance to see you again in the neighborhood of lovely Wethersfield, CT!!!!! Robin (the PTO lady) & Mike (the fruit guy) Bourassa Wethersfield, CT ******************************************** Hey there!   Last night was great, trying this for the first time we didnt know what we were getting ourselves into, but with the laughter and the applause we are sure we will be asking you back.  Your views on life and shopping were hilarious and you know to many it made perfect sense to where it seriously sounded like you were in everyone's heads.  Want to thank you again for coming to a place that doesnt exist and we will be seeing you in the future Im sure.   Linda Holmes Volney Fire Corporation Fulton NY ******************************************** Hi Dave, WOW! Definitely hilarious and more than worth the money spent! I couldn’t stop crying from laughing so hard. I didn’t want to leave the room  or my seat for anything, even during your greatly appreciated extended show. When I decided to try this special events line-up at the resort again,  I couldn’t have asked for a better first comedy act to promote! I only wish now that I had promoted even more. From the very start  to your take on the resort and the quaint town of Gettysburg, and finally your outrageously true funny take on LOVE, women, and men, I ached! I would definitely like to invite you back and I’m sure, by the sound of the noise in the room, my husbands own tears of laughter and all my guests rousing reviews, and the line waiting for T-shirts, you’ll bring us more business next time, or anyone from your company.  It’s no wonder you’re a rising star! Thanks for a great night. Jennifer Jeffcoat General Manager Carroll Valley Resort, PA

Dave, Found your show on www.funnyguytickets.com and saw you in Clayton, NY last weekend on our vaction.  OMG! I never seen a comedian live or on TV that made me laugh out loud for as long as you did.  2 and a half hours went by like it was 10 minutes.  I been asking my wife for a "treat" all week cuz of you. Thanks for the best night out I ever had! Trent and Terry Wilcomb Dave, I saw your comedy show in Ansonia, CT. The best comic ever. I have seen a lot of comedians in The Comedy Store and have been to The last Comic Standing Shows. You are fantastic! Will try to see you again. Ann Gurske *************************************** Hi Dave, Just got back from seeing your comedy show. You are one amazing, funny, funny guy! I haven't laughed so hard in a long, long time. I would have paid 10 times what I did to see your show. My husband really enjoyed the show. I am a cancer survivor, so thank you so much for helping to raise money for such a great cause! I truly appreciate it. I hope I can see your show again sometime! Thanks again. Theresa Marshall **************************************** Dave, Let me start off by saying my cheek still hurt from laughing my ass off at your show last night in "CAMEL" NY 5-14-2010. Lol. Hahahahahaha.  I have to say you are the funniest person I have ever met I have seen a bunch of comedians but none where as funny as you.  My wife and I want to thank you for a great night!! I have to say the "TREAT" was so good last night. Lol hahahahahaha :) Daniel Romaniello Southern Air Inc Mgr. Heavy MX Materials ********************************************** Hi Dave, My wife and I went to your show in Canaan Ct. At the Colonial Theater. Oh my God were you hilarious. My wife had tears running down her face and I couldn't stop laughing. That was a really good show. Even with that Drunk Guy staggering around. That in its self was funny. I hope you use that one in your upcoming shows. Hope to see you again...Keep up the great work!! John Soldan **************************************** Dear Dave, My husband and I attended your show at the Crow’s Nest in Johnsontown Saturday night.  You were absolutely hilarious!  I’m serious, we are professional kidders and live to laugh.  You actually had my cheekbones hurting from laughing so much.  My husband had to go take some pain meds for his headache from laughing so hard.  We have already highly recommended your show to many of our friends.  We hope you come back to Johnsontown sometime soon.  We’ll be there! Don’t change a thing! Thanks for the laughs, Vickie PA Hi Dave I saw your show last night and haven't laughed that much for that long ever!!! If you didn't get to most of your show material last night and just went with the flow then I need to see a regular show!!!! The best comedian that I have seen!!! I can't wait for you to be back in town so I can see you again!!! Thank you very much for an extremely entertaining evening with my family and friends!! My nephew was the "Vanilla Ice kid". Keep up the awesome awesome work!!!!!!!!!!           Cheryl Drake            Pembroke, MA. ******************************************** Dave,        I saw your show last night to benefit the Whitman-Hanson-Pembroke girls hockey team. I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed your show. I laughed so hard I cried. I couldn't believe that you could go on for 3 hours being just as funny at the end as through the whole thing. Thanks for making it a fun night out.                                                   Mary Noonan MA ******************************************** Dave,         Your show on Sept. 26th in Clayton, NY was absolutely the best time I have ever had in my life. You were able to make everyone laugh, in every age group. And the way you brought people from the crowd into your act, and then re-acknowledged them later on for being such good sports, was absolutely fantastic. We are definitely looking forward to having you return next summer, and again, and again. All reviews were thumbs-up!!! t Thanks again for being such an asset to our fundraiser!!!! I am telling everyone I know to bring you in for any event they are raising money for!!!   Donelle Thompson L.A. Quarry spokesperson Relay For Life Fundraising Coordinator New York                                                                                                              ************************************************** Hey Dave,   Your show at Clayton last night was awesome-or should I call this place a) the place where your GPS died b) the place where there is no Italian food cause they ran out of sauce c) Claytonville d) the place that hasn't caught up to the rest of the world.   My husband and I were amazed at how long the show lasted.  We had been to other shows but in no way did they last as long as yours. The other thing we liked as well was we could put the world behind us for a few hours-no war (my husband is a retired soldier and we have lost many friends in the past few years), no economy issues and no Obama (we have seen enough of him!).  You talked about real life which made your show so great.   Also, love the shirt and got one at the end of the show.  Wearing it this morning-hopefully my 19 year old stepson won't think it is too true.  Would love to wear it at the school I teach at ....however don't think they would find the humor in it.  Oh well.   Take care and come back soon.  The husband says you should consider doing a show for our returning soldiers (they are coming back in small groups in the coming weeks).  They and their families could use a laugh after this tour.   Sincerely, Sheila K. Callahan   ****************************************************** Hey Dave,   Thanks for coming to Clayton.. As you can see, it is a pretty isolated area. It is unique in the fact that we go from a population of 1500 people in the fall/winter to 25 -30,000 people in the summer months.  You started talking about Jebediah and the horse & buggy and the GPS not telling you anything else - yeah - my husband and I moved here 8 years ago and know the culture shock. The locales refer to the summer people as "cash cows" and I have heard the locales referred to as "huckleberries" by some of the summer people. Most are quite respectful though.   Anyway, my husband & I live in Alexandria Bay, 7 miles down river and we do have a couple of very nice hotels that bring comedy shows to the area. The Riveredge is one but if you were to do a benefit of some nature for a larger crowd, The Edgewood Resort is a good venue. Also, Kingston, Ontario is 30 minutes across the border from Clayton.   Keep up the good work. The 4 extra people that I told about the show are going to hear about what a terrific time they missed.     Jocelyn H. Merritt Lic. R.. E. Associate Broker - GARLOCK REALTY *************************************************** Dave, Awesome show last night in the booming town of Clayton.  Glad we went and we had a great time.  Going overtime was a surprise also!  You may want to see about going to Fort Drum NY.  It is a military post with a Division Plus of Soldiers who would love the show.  Who knows, maybe they would take you on a trip to a sandy and hot place…… CW4(R) Kurt Callahan CSC, WTA- AVCATT SAF Fort Drum, NY 13602 ********************************************** Dave my wife and I truly enjoyed your  show. We thought you were great. That was our first comedy show and we hope you will come back again. I am sure after last night's  turn out you won't be disappointed next time either. thanks again our sides still hurt from laughing so much.   Terry and Brenda Bennett ******************************************************** Dave,   You performed at the Baby Zachary fundraiser to benefit our son this past weekend. After all, how could you ever forget the greatness of a show in lovely "Inselin", NJ (just a small step up from The Venetian).   My wife and I just wanted to thank you for giving us exactly what we needed...a night of pure joy and laughter. Our son was born with a rare cancer in January and has been fighting for his life ever since. Laughter has been tough to come by lately.   When our friends said they wanted to organize a fundraiser for Zachary we only had one request...please make it fun. We didn't want everyone to get together just to mourn and talk about hospitals and disease. They clearly got it right the moment they contacted you.   Your show was hysterical. The smiles and laughter were nonstop. Everyone I spoke to said the same (well, except maybe my grandparents).   Thank you again for a much needed night of fun and enjoyment with our family and friends.   Best Wishes, Bobby, Dana & Zachary Volkay ************************** Dave       We saw you for the second time at the Infinity Hall. First time was Waterbury Palace Theater. My wife could not stop laughing.  This time we took our kids, it was great to watch them laugh out of control. Cape of Cod, bathroom etiquette awesome. Great how you got SIDETRAKED all night with "CHEZWCK"  the lesbians  and "*** girl". She almost came thru after the show. I gotta get a bigger group and get to another Dave Reilly comedy show. Also it was heartwarming to watch you open up to us about your pre-show accident.   Mike "Noah "Marcelynas     WFD   ***************** Dear Dave~ Thank you for an awesome show last night. Wow! over 2 and half hours of kick butt laughs and wit. You were spot on with follow ups to comments thrown out by the crowd and how you weaved them into the duration of the evening's comedy show made me and my friends feel as though we listening in on a real conversation! Cheers to you! Michael Kabelka info@kabelkaphotos.com ********************   Hi Dave,   We have had the pleasure of enjoying your show recently at the Southington Elks lodge. I don't think there is anyone better than you. There wasn't a time or moment when the people in the audience were not laughing. Our lodge members and their guests were absolutely in awe of the funny lines and actions you do so well. They were all saying how there jaws and sides ached from so much laughter. There was even one person that said it made her laugh just to look at you on your poster, before she even met you. You actually made a few of us a little nervous in the very beginning of your cigarette/fire act. But they LOVED it! They also loved the part about you knowing of the apple harvest and apple fritters.   We really appreciated that you continued your show an hour longer than contracted, it was Great! It showed that even you were having a great time with us! I thought it was awesome that so many were buying your T-shirts. Personally, I had to have two of your shirts.   This show was our second time for my husband Jeff and I, and we want to see your show anytime you are in the area. We are ready in a heartbeat to have you back at our lodge for another night of awesome entertainment. Thank you for all your fun. Jeff and some others are constantly saying  "shshshsh...............Listen.............."I didn't know"!!   Dave, your a funny guy! and you truly are one of a kind so we just love you!!! We wish you all the best for 2009!   Lisa Raymond Southington Elks Lodge #1669 ***************************** Dave, You are the BEST!!! I was at the Elks on Saturday 10/11/08, in Middlesex.  I took my Mom and Uncle - you were fantastic, in fact, beyond fantastic!  I have never ever laughed so hard - yes, my Mom said her neck was hurting from laughing so much and my Uncle had a stomach ache from laughing so much.  THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!  You were unbelievable, the pharmacist, the pill counter, grandma in the back and we cannot forget Dave "our Dave, our gay Dave"  this was all so perfect.  We were still talking about it and laughing about it today at work - you are precious and so very gifted.  You are absolutely the BEST comedian I have ever seen.  Thank you so much for one of the best evenings I've had in a very long time. Rainelle    Dave   Just wanted to Thank you for a great time Sat night.  My husband and our friends were crying from laughter.  My checks hurt from grinning and laughing so much!    I have to say the best part about your act is your demeanor.  You just seem like you're having as much fun as your audience.  It seems more like your sharing your fun instead of putting on an act....that's such a special gift because even some of the most successful comedians lack that quality.    Years ago I saw you at a small bar in Torrington called The Eastside Cafe.  I remember you started the show by putting a cigarette out on your tongue. And I loved a bit you did at the end where you instructed an audience member to move your arms and legs...  Do you still do that sometimes?    It was a fabulous show and such a refreshing way for a mother of 2 to finally get the Hell out of the house!  I should have stopped by to thank you in person.  Next time I'll be sure to bring more friends and family.  I wish you all the happiness and continued success you deserve and look forward to the big news!!  Crissy   Photo by "Your Digital Edge" Thanks Pogo! Dave, Went to see you at the Palace in Waterbury on Saturday.  Great show!  The last half hour we couldn't laugh anymore because I was exhausted and our faces hurt from laughing so hard the first hour and a half! Would love to see you again and bring more friends.  Will keep your site on my "favorites" to see when you'll be close!.  Again, thanks for allowing my husband and I to forget our problems for the night and just enjoy!  You were wonderful!  All the best, Donna and Stan from New Milford, Connecticut ************************************** Hey Dave,     My husband and I saw your show in Bridgeport on March 1st and I just wanted to say thank you so much for making my 5th anniversary one I will never forget.  I can honestly say that I have never laughed so hard in my life. I think I actually stopped breathing at one point.  I have told all of my friends and family about you and of course all of my PTA parents.  We are all putting our heads together to come up with a way to have you come visit us in Hamden.   Your type of comedy is outstanding, you really hit the nail right on the head with so many everyday issues.  It kept my husband and I going back and forth talking about the show for days.  Everyone who saw my shirt from the show was in stitches, and agreed that it was quite appropriate for me.  Please don’t ever stop performing the way you do.  You truly gifted and amazing.  Thank you again for giving me the laugh of a lifetime, I hope to be able to see you again soon and share your talent and humor with my friends and family. Tammi B. Hamden, CT

Dear Dave,

After 2 difficult years of major changes in our organization, we booked you to entertain our staff. I must say, it was the best thing we could have done!
Your show lifted spirits and the next morning I received a thank you letter from one of our staff who thanked me profusely for arranging the show.

I spoke with several people who attend lots of comedy shows and to a person, the agreed that you were the best! I felt a little bad for Alan sitting in the
front row after PROMISING him that you really don't target audience members! Just a little bad though, as your banter with him was hilarious. I hope that
we can have you back again next year as I know, through word of mouth that we could easily double the size of the audience!

Thanks so much for an incredibly funny night,

On behalf of the Social Committee at J. F. Ahern Co., I just wanted to say thanks for putting on a great show. There's still
 people around the office talking about it. I think the women were the most amazed at how much he knows about them.
"now we know". We had a great time and would definitely go see one of his shows again if he comes to Wisconsin again.

Screw it, I think we'll have to come out to the East Coast because I don't think he's going to let you send him to Wisconsin again!

PS - Tell Dave to take his girlfriend up to Door County for some Cherry Pie (he'll understand)

Thanks Again!

Dave,

What can I say?...AMAZING! That's what your show was at my fundraiser Friday night. I don't think I've ever laughed so hard. We had some people back to my house
 after the show & we were up until 3AM talking about it & laughing some more. I've been getting phone calls & emails all weekend from people that attended the event
saying how much fun they had. Thank you for a spectacular evening! Good luck with all your future performances. I look forward to seeing another one of your shows soon.

I went to see you at the Palace in Waterbury Ct.

I am still laughing as I write this. I did not know who you were
when i bought the tickets, but I checked out your website and
thought you must be great. I was so right. You were just so real,
so funny. I need to tell you that this past year for my family was
anything but laughter, my Dad died after a 4 and a half year
ordeal with cancer, my Father in law passed away 8 weeks ago
very very sudden. This has just been a bad year. We really
needed to laugh, laughter is the best medicine,. thank you
 so much . TO see my husband and mother-in-law,
laugh was a great site to see.

I wish I could of stayed and met you but my husband had to leave
 show early to go to work. Next time, most definitely.

WE will come see you again, we will be on vacation when you come
 to Cujinos in July but will look at your schedule and take all our
 friends with us.

You are great! "I didn't know" will stay in my head for weeks.

I attended your show in Ford Cliff and what a great show it was.
I can’t remember the last time that I have laughed so hard. And
I didn’t stop laughing the whole show. Like your website says,
my face still hurt the next day from laughing. I called my
daughter in Newport News, VA the next day and told her if you
are ever in her area, be first in line for tickets, she won’t be sorry.
Your brand of humor is so true and what a gift you have!!!

I will continue to keep in mind what you said at the end of your
show. How true that is, we all just need to be reminded quite
 often.

Thank you again for a wonderful evening. I’ll be telling all
my friends and spreading the word about you. Can’t wait to
catch another show!!!

One of my favorite sayings is "You don't stop laughing because
 you grow old....you grow old because you stop laughing".
Thank you for providing that much-needed "medicine" for us
in our everyday hectic lives to take time to laugh at ourselves,
laugh at others and simply to "laugh". With so much horror in
the news any more, people like you who make it their life's
 mission to bring laughter and joy into peoples day is invaluable.
The 3-hour show was the best I've ever seen anywhere -
and good thing it was that long because anything shorter would
have been a tease. As it was, we still didn't want it to end.

Lastly, your "serious" comments at the end were so true and
we all need reminded of those simple facts to appreciate and
enjoy life for "today". Very well spoken.

Thanks for an unbelievable fun evening. I can't wait to see
 your next show

Dear Dave,

I don't usually do comedy shows, I'm a concert kinda girl...
but you rock!! I saw you at the Ford Cliff Firehall show. I am
now a huge fan!! You need your own HBO special. The way
you had the whole town laughing hysterically at themselves
was pure genius. Of course, it so easy...a Western PA
redneck town that mines mushrooms and makes toilets...
great material.

Keep Us Laughing!!

Corinne Miklos

For what its worth, my brother and I laughed the hardest at
the remote control with the dial joke, our grandfather had one
 of those and it really hit home, we both had tears in our eyes.
Thanks again Dave and hope to see you in the future, I'll be
spreading the word for sure.

hey dave,

we seen your show for a second time at the Palace,
 Friday night. What a blast!!! we left again with our bellies
 & faces hurting from laughing so hard. Thanks again for
making real life so fun and for making the real life go away
for a while! You are definitely the BEST!

thanks again

Dave,

I saw your show for the first time last night in
Waterbury, Ct. You were hilairous. I didn't know how
funny you'd actually be. "I DIDN'T KNOW!" haha,
but you ended up making my cheeks hurt until the
very end. I couldn't believe the show lasted as long
as it did and I was still laughing even after the show!
Your humor is the perfect taste for my friends and I.
Thanks for the laughs.

You were absolutely amazing at Cugino's in July! My friend
Tami recommended you after she & her husband saw your
'act' at the Palace in Waterbury. I'm so glad she did as you
had me in tears! I felt like I had an abdominal workout when
I got home. You have this incredible talent of making people
 laugh ("I didn't know?"). What an amazing and fulfilling way
 to spend your life! Thanks so much for top shelf
entertainment. The next time you perform in Connecticut,
make sure you upgrade to the Bushnell, Oakdale Theater
 or Shubert as Cugino's decorations were a tad distracting
(LOL) !

Take care and keep the jokes coming :) YOUR THE BEST!

*****************************************
Dave,

you were awesome last night. Paula and I laughed
for two hours straight. I don’t know if you realized, but
 my wife  is seven months pregnant. She almost had the
baby last night, with all the laughing she was doing. Dude,
you were big time funny and incredibly professional. We
will be at every venue you play (within an hour and a half
radius) from here on in. We will spread the word to all of
our friends and family, brother.

Roberto

****************************************

All I can say is that 2 days later people are still talking about
Lauren and Ryan's "jack-n-jill." They also bitched about sweating
the whole time too - but I think it was easy to forget how hot it was
 when you laugh straight for 2 1/2 hours! After reading your site my expectations were very high - and I talked you up the week's before
the event - and I cannot tell you how YOU MET AND EXCEEDED THESE EXPECTATIONS!

You were a smash hit. Members of the audience came up to me
 and said that for the 2 1/2 hours you performed there was not ONE
 lull - they laughed the ENTIRE time. Grown men were crying - it was
the best 2 1/2 hours I have spent in a very long time. The beginning
was different (which I think all in the audience were kind of struck as
 "I thought this was a comedy bit - not a magic show!") and soon
after we were "loving every minute of it!"

With all Lauren and I have been through over the past year - this
was by far the most fun we have had in a LONG, LONG time! The
show was sensational! You now have 70 more disciples! We could
 not have had a better comedian at ALL!

We also agree to live life in the present - I think we all have a
tendency to think about how life will be and not savor the life
we have today.

I was at your show last night in Lodi NJ. (Police fundraiser
 for a local slain officer). I have to tell you that I am not easily
amused when I see comedy shows. I often find myself clapping
out of pity. This was NOT the case with you. I laughed my ass off!!
 We were talking about you at work today and everyone agreed....
that you were fantastic. The cops loved ya!!!! I don't usually write
 letters but man, you earned it......You may have climbed into the
#1 spot for comedians that I have seen....and I have seen alot.
Excellent work!!!! Maybe we can have you back next year....
I know that it would be our pleasure.

Hi Dave,

We saw your show at the Butler Co. Community College last night.
We have never laughed so hard, for so long a time. My face hurt
 and tears rolled down our cheeks. I was the university graduate/job coach with Robert (fiance) next to me. We just thought you were
great and SOOOOO funny. Thanks for giving us in Butler something
 to do on a Saturday night. We were home before they rolled up the streets for the night. Stop by again and don't take the bridge over the city. Come on down.

Sincerely

Laura and Robert

******************************************

Dave,

Do you realize I am still laughing?! I can’t stop talking
about how funny your show was to everyone that will
 listen. And of course it doesn’t sound as funny coming
 out of my mouth than it does yours. It’s so hard to
explain to people what kind of comedian you are. So
damn funny! I’m shaking my head just thinking about
your show.

I love how you use the crowd for jokes…I saw you at
the Elks and was laughing myself at all the older folks
in the place. Whenever you started on them I couldn’t
even breathe! Truly you are freaking hilarious.

Just as your website says, my face hurts from laughing!

You are AWESOME!!

THANK YOU! Keep making people laugh-it’s truly a gift!

Still laughing,

Never expected to see even a decent comedian at
 "The Lobster Barn," but you were awesome. I've seen
many comedians and I can't think of a better show. Not
only were you awesome, but the length of the show was
 great too. Many times performances are too short, but
yours was just right. Your mixture of of humor was
 excellent and the faces are great. Can't wait to see a
 touring date schedule so I can go with more folks to
 see you again.

Great Job,

Rick Budney

Just wanted to drop you a line and tell you that I laughed so
 hard I cried… My wife is the Program Director for Big Brother’s
 Big Sisters and was VERY pleased with the turnout and the
extra time you spent (she also cried laughing too, by the way).
I really tried to get my cheap co-workers to buy tickets, but
they didn’t. I let them know what a great show they missed.

Let me know when you are coming back this way. I’ll be sure
to have the wheels on my trailer repaired for the road trip!

Excellent performance at Kittanning country club on
Saturday. I have seen many comics live and on HBO and
Showtime yours was as good or better than any other.
Completely satisfied and kept laughing all night. You worked
 the crowd well and did not have a dead spot in your
entire show. Well done and I'd like to see you again
anytime your in the area.

John & Vicky Kirscht

Thanks for coming to Kittanning (Kiiitttaaaaannnninnng) for
 the Big Brothers/Sisters fund raiser. I thought you were
very good!! The magic, the music, the laughs - it was all great.
 I couldn't believe how late it was when you were finished.
Time really does fly when you are having fun. We will
definitely look for you in the future. Thanks for reminded
 us to enjoy our lives RIGHT NOW! That is really an
 important message that somehow seems to get lost in the
day to day happenings of life.

Take care,

Glenda

Hey Dave,

I saw you at Timberline, WV. You were great! Liked your
 schtick and style. Your use to the couple who had been dating
 for three years and the geologist family was great. My brother
is a geologist (and just bought property in WV) and I can't wait
to tell him about your lines. Most in the crowd were like us: folks
who live in the DC or Baltimore suburbs but have vacation
 homes in WV. But we enjoyed the WV jabs. Now I'm a fan or
yours and would pay to see you again.

Dave-

Thanks for braving the wilds of Northampton at last Saturday's
party. You - and your new best friend, Elodie - were the perfect combination to get this season out of the winter doldrums. Your enthusiasm and professionalism (a lot of of "ism's" there...

Sorry) to overcome the night's slow start is a testament of
how talented you truly are. Again, many thanks for making it fun
night for all my friends.

Best, John
**********************************************

Hey Dave

Just wanted to drop a line and say THANK YOU VERY MUCH
 for the excellent time we had at the fundraiser the night of
Nov 12th. Not too often that I would travel farther than 5 miles
 for a fundraiser (I would just tell them they were logistically
screwed) let alone a political one. I however was pleasantly
suprised with the killer routine you presented. When you came
 out staring at all I said oh bother not another wanna be, but you dispelled that notion extremely quick. Your patiance putting up
with Shiela, the fun you had with her husband, and the
enlightening conversation you had with their son on the phone
was well worth the travel. The lesbians loved the attention,
 Joe Bob and Billy Bob and their Sister/Mother/Grandmother
even looked like they had awakened from the dead and enjoyed themselves. While it may have appeared some of us at Franks
 table were not having fun, we were just totally dumbstruck
(especially me!) I dont think I even blinked once during your
act.

Anyhow, thanks for the great time, and I deffinately look
 forward to seeing you again very soon. Have a nice holiday
Dave! Im off to do Florida :)

DURING THE SUMMER I GOT INVITED TO COME SEE
 YOU. YOU ARE RIGHT ABOUT MY FACE HURTING!!!!!!!!!!
YOU WERE SOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD. HOW DO YOU
 KEEP A STRAIGHT FACE? I'M HOPING TO SEE YOU ON THANKSGIVING EVE. KEEP US LAUGHING, YOUR THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ROSE FORTIN

We haven't laughed this much & this hard in a long time.
What a great gift you have!! I'm so glad you changed your
path in life so more people get to enjoy this wonderful talent
of yours... especially here in Oxford!! Thanks for sharing this
gift with us. Last year we got to see Father Sarducci(& he was
 great) but had to leave right after & missed your part of the
 show. I'm so glad you came back here! We're hoping to make
your next show & bring some friends & family. (So glad to see
we can order your T-shirts on line also).

It really meant a lot to hear what you had to say @ the end
of your show also...To enjoy life as it is in the present... And
 also that "you" were able to recognize your talent in life &
go with something you really love to do. There are so many
people out there afraid to take that risk or who don't recognize
 the talent they have.

Thanks again Dave for all you do...The stress is gone & the
problems are forgotten...Life is good...

Spike & Debbie

We caught your act at the Colonial Tavern last night. My wife set me up as the big guy down front. Your show gave me a headache from laughing all day Saturday. No amount of Tylenol would help.

You are histarlical! You have a f***ing great routine. I would have have stayed there all night listening to you if not for the snow (in November)!

When you talked to my 12 year-old son on the phone, that was hilarious. He had some clue because you did it to our friends last year, but took him by surprise. It will give him something to talk about in school.

Friends of ours (from New York and the railroad) called us the next day to warn us that they are going to bring tables of friends for next year's show, so start preparing some new material.

Oh yeah, even the republican pencil d*** accountant couldn't stop laughing. You remember, the one with lead in his pencil. That alone was worth the price of admission. We have a new nickname for him for years to come (Stubby No. 2) or at least to next year's show!

Once again, let me tell you that you have a fantastic knack for comedy
and you are a great comedian..

Best of luck and continued success,

Brian K.
PS Remember Oxford when you make it big!!!
*****************************************************************

Dave,

I just wanted to thank you again for one of the most enjoyable evenings of live comedy that I have ever had. Your show was just the tonic that I needed after the dissapointing election news earlier in the day. And I was delighted and suprised to discover that you are as personable off-stage as you are a hilarious comedian on-stage. I spoke with Todd (the club owner) and told him how much I enjoyed the show as well. You have a great show, great material, great material and a great time had by everyone who was fortunate enough to come to After Hours last evening.

I wish you all the best with the TV deal and safe travels wherever you may go.

Thanks again.

Hi Dave,
Here's my opinion (in the form of a poem) of anyone
 who has any reservations about hiring you for their
 function......

So you think you've seen all the great comedians,
but how could you possibly know?  
Unless you've hired Dave and Joey
to put on their 'Comedy show'.                                                                   

Oh! you can read  all their reviews,
and research them all on the net. 
They all say they will sell out your show,
and they are the best you could ever get!        

You start to listen to all the comedians
you can find on radio & TV.
Because you want a successful function, 
So Please! just listen to me.

Because our Lodge was raising funds,
I did all  named above  & more.
How could I have known the success we'd have,
until Dave Reilly walked through our door?

The show was over a week ago, 
and I'm still hearing positive things. 
Everyone talks about their sides still hurting, 
and truth to light he brings.                                                                        

He focuses on reality,
what happens to us each day.
Though we may not be amused at the time.
He sees the humor, and tells it that way.

So your audience will be captivated,
until the end of this awesome show,
They won't even go to the restroom,
even though they really have to go.....

Keep up the good work and I look forward to catching your
show again next time your in the area.

Awesome show on 9/18/04 in West Hartford!!
 (Ok, it's not the Venetian in Vegas, but...) My brothers and I
(we were part of the minority younger crowd) went, not knowing
 what was in store for us. We laughed so hard that one of my
brothers got hiccups, the other's chest muscles hurt, and next
day my neck and face felt funny!!

You have a unique perspecive on things and remind us of
sh*t that's funny. Yup, everytime I went to a public bathroom
for a couple of days, I started snickering at what you said
 about male bathroom etiquette.

I'll definitely be back for more laughs sometime...now I can
really say "Been there, done that, and (literally) bought the
 T-shirt."

Regards and much success to you,

Hi, Dave,

I saw you tonight for the second time. As I said to you on the way out,
you were funny the first time, you were funnier the second. My stomach
hurt from laughing.

My husband saw you tonight for the first time. It takes a lot to get him to
laugh out loud but he was sure laughing out loud tonight.

You are a very funny man and I wish for you a long and successful career.

Last night, Nov. 5th 2005 in Saugus, Ma. was the second time I've seen
your show. The first time was at the NA convention in Nashua, NH. My wife
and I spoke to you for a moment after the show, you are a gracious person
off the stage, and a complete mental case on the stage. My wife and I love
your shows and plan on seeing you whenever your nearby. We have told
others of your show, and the couple we invited along last night have become
instantaneous fans as well. Thanks for the night of laughs, we look forward
to laughing with you soon.

On behalf of Unilever and the Q2 Celebration team, I'd like to
thank you for your hilarious performance last week. Between
 the heat, the loud hum of the fans and your knowledge of our

could tell that with no doubt this event was a huge success.

I was a little skeptical at first when I went to buy the tickets for
the Palace since it was the first time I had heard your name.
 But it was well worth it and when I saw you again at Cugino's
 about a month later, even then I could not stop the chuckles.

Yours is the type of comedy that people can't get tired of.
You are able to turn everyday life experiences into comical
events just by putting enough of a twist to them to let us
 know that we are all human and experience the same things
in life and can laugh about them.

You are truly gifted. We will definitely be seeing you again.

Saw the show last night in Danbury. VERY FUNNY. Thanks for

Hi Dave,

I saw your show  in Cheshire last weekend and
wanted to say KUDOS at an awesome gig. You are insanely
funny! Admittedly, I don't find too many comedians funny
 (not that I can do any better, mind you!) but enjoyed YOUR
show so much - it's true, my face DID hurt the whole night
from laughing! I can't wait to see you perform again, and
 already have you on my radar for our Cub Scouts fundraiser
next year!

Be happy, take care!

My husband and I so enjoyed your show at the Palace
 Theater last night. I think it was probably the best comedy
 show I have ever seen, we laughed ourselves silly. For you
 to stand up there for over 2 hours and keep those laughs
coming one after the other is incredible, you're the BEST!
I also wanted to thank you for the tickets, the seats were great!!!

100 times funnier! This was my first Reilly experience and
 I must say I will be talking about your show for a long time!!
Now I see you're coming to Cheshire in July! (got tickets for
that show already!) I will definitely tell all my friends to go
 see your show. I honestly didn't think it was possible to
 laugh for 2 hours straight!! You definitely have been blessed
 a talent. Keep up the great work. Can't wait to see you in July!!!

I was a first-timer last night at the Palace Theater

was truly incredible. I was laughing so hard that my side

non-stop. You are 'the worlds funniest guy"!!! I can't wait

I just got back from your show at the Palace Theater in

 I honestly didn't think it was physically possible to laugh
for 2 consecutive hours---you were awesome. Hope to see
you on tour again soon, so add some more dates for God's sake.

Hi Dave,

I must say, it is true. My face truly does hurt
 from laughing! I've seen Howie Mandel's show and
Paul Rodriguezs' to name a few. I laughed more tonight
than both their shows. Every aspect, from your facial
 expressions, to the voice, to magic and jokes, etc.

Thank you for coming to Oxford and making me forget
 the two operations I need for a little while.
I will tell anyone who will listen to go see your show.

I hope you get home safe
and keep bringing happiness to others.
You are beyond phenominal.

yea dave i got to your show just when you were doing your condom bit,
i spoke to a few of my friends at the bergen county police and sherriff's depts
and they said they almost pissed their pants. they told me some of the bits that
 you did and i couldn't breathe and i was light headed, i was in so bad of a condition
 that one of the guys had their radio out getting ready to call an ambulance. any way
what i'm trying to say is that you are funnier then george carlin in my book. when i
get a party going i will definately hire you thanks again for making some of the
cops piss their pants.

I had the great pleasure of being at your how in West roxbury
last night. I enjoyed you emensely....Good comedy is rare and
great comedy is something we don't see enough of......
you are amoung the GREATS.

Thank you so much for making me laugh.

 graduates form high school-let me know if you're ever in the
 Raleigh-Durham area-my friends would enjoy your show
so much! Please let us know when you'll be on CBS -we'd
love to see you on TV. Thanks again for a fun evening
(hate to admit this but it was the first night I have been out
 for something other than hockey since we moved here
 in Aug.!!) Good Luck!

Dave,

I just saw you at Todd Libman's party. My friend and I
were the first to go up to you to get your card. What a riot.
You are sooo over the edge. I've already told my friends
and family about you.  Now I'm on your website looking
 for a schedule in hopes you are performing around here soon.

Do you even realize who you were performing to today?
High class folks at that gig. Sort of funny knowing that.
I hope to see you soon and buy a tee-shirt. I would've
 bought one today, but I didn't have $20 left after buying
the gift. Just kidden.

Anyway, you are the best comic I've EVER seen. That
includes at comedy clubs, and on TV. You should be in the
movies, forget this stand up stuff. I am going to try to have
my cheap boss spring and hire you at one of our events.

P.S. My brother looks EXACTLY like you. Almost to a
scary point. You truly have a twin!

Not gonna lie, I was a little skeptical about what i signed
up for...
but within the first five minutes, before you even spoke,
 there were tears rolling down my face, and the night
did a full 180! You were on, you felt the crowd, you landed
 perfect and you made me laugh till it hurt. I can't remember
 when all my friends and I got together and laughed like
that, so overdue! Thanks for the great time, dont be shy to
visit the "LOBSTER BARN" again!

Hi Dave,

Thanks for coming to the "Lobster Barn!" I saw you a couple
of years ago, and you were still as great as you were then,
even better! Thank God I was able to get off my shift in time
to watch your performance. I am very critical when it comes
 to comedians, you had me laughing the whole time! The shirt
 was a hilarious investment! If you are ever in the area again,
I will definitely come and see you.

Take care and good luck with your career,

Sincerely,
Erika Lange

I saw your show on February 12th, at Kittanning, PA.
 You were great! I haven't laughed that hard in a long time.

I am on the Board for Big Brothers Big Sisters and we really
appreciate you performing for us. I have gotten nothing but
positive feed back since the show. A lot of people, including
myself, were pleasantly surprised. As you can imagine, we
don't get a whole lot of top quality performers in "Kittanning"!

Thanks-again

Dave,

Just a quick note to say thanks for a great show. It's one
of the best I have ever seen. Great improv! You have no
idea how many farmers you actually had in the audience,
trying to figure out what the hell you meant by some of
your references but that was truly part of the entertainment
and I can't tell you how proud we were of out little
community when you asked people what their idea of a great
vacation was and the lady replied "Go to the mountains"
I know you weren't expecting that but, great recovery!
The extra time was much appreciated. I just want to know
 one thing. What the hell did you do for entertainment
after the show? Again, Thank You.

Hi Dave,

saw you last nite, you were awesome! I was still
awake at 1:00 A.M. trying to figure out what happened to
the beer bottle and cigarette. My Husband and four of our
 friends were in the second row, behind Dave and Richard aka
"Big Dick," ha, laughed so hard our stomach's hurt.We really
enjoyed the opener too, would like to see more of him too,
but don't cut back on your time, just have to have a longer
show! On the way to the car after your show, the first words
out of My Girlfriends mouth was " I want to know who's
telling him about the women's bathroom and the shoes."
 I bought your shirt and I am planning to wear it next time
we see you. Thanks for a GREAT night.

p.s. Really like your little speech at the
end about living life for today, we're always waiting for that
 better job, more money, really hit home.

I hope you had a great new year!

I promised myself I would email you that night when I saw
 you in Timberline, WV on 12/23.You might have erased
that evening from your mind but I wanted to thank you for
 making the cold trip to the ski resort and entertaining all 50 of us.

I have a ski house up there and my wife had all of her family
 there and our highlight was going to be that night and you
 did not disappoint us.

You were hilarious. I asked my wife after the first 5 minutes.
 Do you think this guy speaks or is this the act? I was
cracking up with your facial expressions. That was good stuff.

You probably don’t remember, but you were picking on a
 housewife and a geologist in the front row. That was my
brother in law and my sister in law. Some of the family isn’t too
 keen on the sister in law so they loved it when you were
picking on her for staying at home and doing nothing. Because
 that’s what she does. Good stuff dude, you are very quick on
your feet and I think your best stuff was when you were making
 it up based on the audience’s response. Only a true comedian
can pull that off as well as you did. I will proudly wear my
 Mental Health T-shirt and I look forward to seeing you again
sometime at a bigger venue!

Hey I seen you in Dahlonega, Georgia at my moms Christmas party. I thought
 you were very funny. My kids were also there and they still talk
about your show. My son is trying to become a comedian now.
You or all he talks about. Well you probaly get alot of emails like
this one. Hope you have a merry christmas.

Thanks,

I saw you perform at Osiris Cafe' on Friday night.Very funny stuff.
Did you ever think about doing comedy for a living? Only kidding.
The owner of the club (Sunday) insisted that we come to see you.
Well worth the $$$$.

Thanks again.

Dear Dave,

I have seen you before and think you are hilarious. I do not live in
Ansonia but know the Valley mentality and rumors of those who live
there. I actually do live in a trailer and thought the Valley jokes of the
Valley and trailers were side splitting.

Good luck on your future ventures,

I attended your show at the Colonial Tavern to
support the Oxford Democratic Town Committee
 and wound up giving myself a "gift" because of
your comedy! Love your attitude at the beginning
 of your act, the way you win over the audience
 and everything else right through to the
 hysterical ending, and then, your words of wisdom!
 Your the best comedian I've seen in a
 long time, bar none!
