Jerry Seinfeld was performing at The Comedy Cellar in NYC. A bunch of famous friends in comedy were there that night, several of whom Chris Rock is assembling for a tour, and they all decided to jump in for a handful of jokes and make one big mega-set. The audience got one big comic after another pop up on stage unexpectedly. Dave Attel and more were present.

Rock, Schumer and Chappelle hit the stage - CNN

Lord. The greatest set in history may have just happened.

 

[SwiftDeath]

But did they do bits at each other, that's what I really want to know

 

[Oppo]

jesus.

i was at the Cellar for a Louis walk-in and i thought that was nuts.

 

[jon bones]

jesus.

i was at the Cellar for a Louis walk-in and i thought that was nuts.

Same - it was an Aziz show. This is like... much crazier

 

[Cagey]

Comedy Cellar is the best place on earth for standup.

I've caught all of them save for Seinfeld dropping in for surprise sets individually, but all at once would be incredible.

Chappelle was back in 2010 and he went for two hours on a semi coherent kinda dark ramble with brilliance thrown in here and there.

Edit: Schumer was very good, Rock was good but uneven, and Aziz was trash. Attell ripped on him afterward when the normal lineup resumed.

 

[Caboose]

Brazzers etc.

 

[HStallion]

I'll be honest I thought Dave Attel would have been long dead by now.

 

[TheLetdown]

Seinfeld has a new look going on in that picture, standing between Chapelle and Schumer.

 

[Patrick Bateman]

Chris Rock, Amy Schumer, Seinfeld, Aziz Ansari, Dave Chapelle.

One's not like the other. What is that talentless hack Amy Schumer doing there? Or did she just come by?

 

[Diprosalic]

Lord. The greatest set in history may have just happened.

Ehhhhhh.

In 2017 i wouldn't rate any of them above a 7/10 in terms of stand up.

 

[HStallion]

Damn its probably just the shitty photo quality but Chris Rock is looking baby faced as Hell.

 

[Gordon Shumway]

Brazzers etc.

You are wrong for that..

 

[EhoaVash]

lol for a second looking at chris rock, aziz i though this was a old picture of these guys together back in high school

He became a Soul Man

Chris Rock, Amy Schumer, Seinfeld, Aziz Ansari, Dave Chapelle.

thats fucking harsh.

 

[WhateverItTakes]

This would have been incredible just for the surprise of seeing them all in one spot!

Chris Rock, Amy Schumer, Seinfeld, Aziz Ansari, Dave Chapelle.

One's not like the other. What is that talentless hack Amy Schumer doing there? Or did she just come by?

 

[Gentleman Jack]

Boy that didn't take very long. Rock & Schumer have been friends and collaborators for years.

 

[Oppo]

You are wrong for that..

and here i thought you had retired the Joan-smoke gif.

 

[Snowman Prophet of Doom]

Ansari and Schumer are both significantly eclipsed by the others of that lineup.

 

[Gordon Shumway]

thats fucking harsh.

and here i thought you had retired the Joan-smoke gif.

😕 Blasphemy!

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

Who's the not-famous comedian in the pic with them?

 

[hipbabboom]

You are wrong for that..

I feel better knowing it wasn't me who said it but I'll go sit in the corner as well because I surely thought it... and I feel terrible for it.

 

[DeaconKnowledge]

I'll be honest I thought Dave Attel would have been long dead by now.

Haha. Me too.

 

[DeathyBoy]

Ansari and Schumer are both significantly eclipsed by the others of that lineup.

Well, yeah. But most people aren't at that level.

 

[Jarmel]

I wish someone had recorded this.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Damn its probably just the shitty photo quality but Chris Rock is looking baby faced as Hell.

he has defeated aging

 

[Gentleman Jack]

Who's the not-famous comedian in the pic with them?

From the link

Comic Jon Laster was also there, and documented the occasion on his Instagram account.

 

[Discotheque]

A Chris Rock/Chapelle tour would be mad.

I need it. Those netflix specials gotta hurry up too

 

[farisr]

I wish someone had recorded this.

Dave probably had an EMP device that he activated as soon the set started.

 

[NYR]

Who's the not-famous comedian in the pic with them?

Jon Laster.

 

[ryutaro's mama]

I love the Comedy Cellar precisely for how it has stuff like this just happen.

Dave Attell showed up unannounced to our show a couple of years ago.

I wish someone had recorded this.

No photos or recording in the CC. It's their policy.

 

[Oppo]

I wish someone had recorded this.

yeah, would be nice to see, but it's good that they didn't.

besides Chapelle was there. he probably brought his faraday-phonebag company.

you try shit like that in the Cellar and they will bounce you like a goddamn super ball off the CN Tower

 

[enzo_gt]

Pretty awesome to see so many great and talented comedians in the same place at the same time. Kind of cool Amy Schumer coincidentally showed up too.

 

[Exr]

People hold shitty Schumer among the likes of Chapelle eh

 

[mm04]

Bitch! I live in a fuckin trash can!

 

[Always-honest]

Wow, wish i was there...


How is Amy doing, by the way? Did she bounce back after that episode a year or so ago?
I think she's really funny.

I really, really wish I could hear both their sets lol

 

[whytemyke]

NO JEFF FOXWORTHY
NO LARRY THE CABLE GUY
NO GOOD

HMPH



kidding. as a comedy snob I'm quietly dying on the inside that someone got to experience that and it wasn't me.

Chris Rock, Amy Schumer, Seinfeld, Aziz Ansari, Dave Chapelle.

Seriously? Her and Chris Rock collaborate often. They've become friends and he directed her HBO special. But yeah let's be edgy and say she sucks against consensus.

 

[nitewulf]

Ansari and Schumer are both significantly eclipsed by the others of that lineup.

Is that true though, I never found Seinfeld stand up routine to be funny.

 

[Kitsunebaby]

Shit, Dave Attell used to be one of my favorite comics. Is there any recent material I can find of his?

 

[CrocMother]

Is Chris Rock a vampire?

 

[nitewulf]

Jon Laster.

Ah, that's why he seemed familiar...I saw him very recently at the Cheap Date Spectacular in Brooklyn that my friend co-hosts.

 

[Patrick Bateman]

"Against consensus"? Wat?

I've yet to meet a single person who thinks she's funny.

 

[Aeana]

"Against consensus"? Wat?

I've yet to meet a single person who thinks she's funny.

What about the people you're arguing with literally right now

 

[Patrick Bateman]

What about the people you're arguing with literally right now

Nobody here said she's funny. Her only feature seems to be that she's friends with Chris Rock.

 

[Bellamin]

Is Chris Rock a vampire?

Hard to believe he's in his 50's. Btw, I'll pay whatever I have to in order to see this tour.

 

[Vincent Grayson]

Nobody here said she's funny. Her only feature seems to be that she's friends with Chris Rock.

I'll go to bat for her. Her show is fucking hilarious, and I've mostly liked her stand-up. The only real thing she's done I didn't go for was Trainwreck.

I think she might just be one of those comedians not suited for a film career. It felt like she just wasn't "with it" for lack of a better term.

 

[Bronx-Man]

gross, who let a fucking woman into my comedy club

women aren't funny

people, this is scientifically proven

plus they have cooties
