This is MUCH better than last year! :D

 

 


America's premier comedian, Jerry Seinfeld, will be performing his signature stand-up routine during the 2015 Lucille Ball Comedy Festival on Saturday, August 1, 2015 at the Jamestown Savings Bank Arena. Seinfeld has been hailed for his uncanny ability to joke about the little things in life that relate to audiences everywhere. Seinfeld now sets his sights on performing both nationally and internationally in 2015.

His tour will visit the Jamestown Savings Bank Arena for two performances on August 1 at 7pm & 9:30pm. These shows are on sale Monday, February 9 at 10am. Members of the Lucille Ball Desi Arnaz Museum & Center for Comedy will be able to participate in an exclusive pre-sale period beginning Monday, February 2 at 10am.

"Jamestown celebrates the best in comedy, and Jerry Seinfeld is exactly that," said Journey Gunderson, festival producer and executive director of the Lucy Desi Center for Comedy and National Comedy Center.

The Lucille Ball Comedy Festival will take place July 30 - August 2, 2015. Tickets and information are available at LucyComedyFest.com & 716.484.0800.

During a Thursday open house, the Lucy Desi Museum & Center for Comedy also announced that as part of the National Comedy Center (NCC) project, a Lucy Ricardo hologram will be unveiled during the 2015 Lucille Ball Comedy Festival. Working in close collaboration with industry leaders Hologram USA and Dream No More Studios of Beverly Hills, the National Comedy Center has developed a hologram of the iconic Vitameatavegamin scene from "I Love Lucy," the first comedy based hologram ever created. Full details on the hologram unveiling will be announced at a later date.

Is it just me, or are they announcing this way earlier than they ever have before?

 

It's not just you. They usually announce the headliner in the last couple of weeks of March or the first couple of April. They announced whatshisname on April 9 last year.

Did you check the small print on the poster?  Are you sure there's not a "Mrs." in front of "Jerry Seinfeld".  Or "someone performing in the style of...."

Like one of the first "Broadway" albums I bought for 99 cents in the bargain bin.  :  "My Fair Lady" " with (next legible line)the original Broadway cast".  In much smaller print below "with": "Lola Fisher and some members of...".

Yes that was the same Lola "Bunny Fleetwood" Fisher

I can't believe that Jerry is coming here.  I have seen him perform three times and he is great.  My favorite stand-up comedian.  And then I just find out today that another of my favorites is going to be appearing a couple of weeks later out at Chautauqua Institution - Carol Burnett.  Glad I didn't pay a fortune and make the trip to that dinner at the Jimmy Stewart Museum a few months ago.  Now she will only be 16 miles away! LOL

PERSONALLY, I FEEL THIS IS A SLAP IN THE FACE TO THE LUCY-DESI MUSEUM ET AL!!!!  I WOULD CERTAINLY LIKE TO KNOW THE BEHIND-THE-SCENES 'STUFF' AS ANY KIND OF EXCUSE WHY SHE IS NOT COMING TO LUCILLE'S HOMETOWN, JAMESTOWN!!!!  SHAME ON . . . . SOMEBODY!

This is amazing!  They're attracting the real heavy hitters for this festival.  I wonder if he'll mention the Seinfeld episode with that guy on the subway reading TV Guide and pointing out all the Lucy shows on the schedule.

 

"See, on this particular Tuesday you could've watched six hours of Lucy. There's I Love Lucy, The Lucy Show, Here's Lucy!"  :)

Do you have any idea the date of THAT PARTICULAR SEINFELD EPISODE?  Thanks for posting it if you do; I've never even seen one episode; but, now that he's coming here, her mention should be included in the chronology.  Of course, if anyone else has the date of THAT episode, please post it here.  Thanks again....JK

ME, TOO - honeybun; AND, welcome back; what happened this tme?  Loving you, JK

Why do you even bother asking, you know it's me and computers, we rarely get along for any length of time, LOL!  Beau fixed it yesterday and i'm baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack lady!  Although i have to take the blame for this one, i was going to too many gay porn sites, that's over now, i'll just watch my movies for that, LOL!  Those sites have way too many infectious viruses.  Hey, did you notice, i can "quote" again, get American news on my MSN home page and probably lost those stupid glitches like getting accents from French, LOL!

I lost my enthusiasm for Seinfeld gradually, but his comments about Lucy hastened the process.  He took a jab at People magazine for doing two Lucille Ball posthumous covers, and said on his sitcom that he'd never seen an episode of I Love Lucy.

Well, said on the show is the writers fault, not his, he just had to read the lines they gave him, BUT, the People comments you mention i never even knew of so i hate him even more now and will never watch a rerun of that awful unfunny show.  So there!
