I Saw RODNEY CARRINGTON

This weekend, my parents and I went to Cape Girardeau to see Rodney Carrington. For those uninformed, he’s a comedian/singer whose primary demographic consists of rednecks (I know I often point out my disdain for anything related to the redneck lifestyle, but I am a guy who enjoys all comedy); he’s toured all over, been in some music videos, had his own sitcom for a short time, and co-wrote and starred in “Beer for my Horses” with Toby Keith. We originally bought the tickets in April (around my birthday), but the show got moved to late October (six months, what the hell).
When we took our seats, there was a screen that was playing clips of Rodney’s best performances. Here’s an example that will make anyone smile:

When the show started, it opened with this guy Craig Peters; this guy was hilarious, and I especially enjoyed him talking about Missouri drivers( he said “I had one driver that was so angry, he threw a kitten at me”. He put on a good thirty minutes.
When Rodney took the stage, he immediately got the audience hooked. He runs on stage with this “skatin’ music” playing, and he’s like “You like that African music? You voted for four years of that shit.” Clearly he knows his audience. He ranted on subjects like sex, church, family, and the time he went to Toby Keith’s “house”. Overall, it was a good time.
