Hi everyone I just wanted all to know that Jeff Dunham's Very Special Christmas Special is now for sale by pre order and I am happy to say you can order it through http://www.ventriloquistcentral.com.

Dan

I saw on Amazon.com that he also has a Christmas album, with him and the guys singing Christmas songs.

Jeff is coming to Jacksonville, Florida in December. Some of the people on my shift are getting tickets to attend. Jacksonville is less than an hour South of my area. Looking forward to seeing him in person.

Dan, thanks for the link on the DVD.

I see he is gonna be at the HARD ROCK THEATER at the Seminole Casino
(less than two hours from here) a couple of nights before he goes to Jacksonville.

I may have to drive over. The toll is still reasonable, since the govenor hasn't rented Alligator Alley/I-75 yet !

I'm jealous - Jeff is great to see live - his shows are hilarious and he works the crowd like no other act out there. Unfortunately he comes no where near me according to the schedule.

Definitely go and have fun!

Jeff Dunham is better live than on TV or video. I've seen him three times live in various venues and he is fantastic!

Does anyone know which puppets he will use for this show? I love Walter.

Glenn

Jeff was working on material with Walter, Achmed, Bubba J, Peanut & Jose during the time I saw him. I'm guessing they will all make an appearance.

Thanks. Hope he does use them. Glenn

Its unlikely Jeff would drop Walter, Achmed or Peanut from a project - that would be like Bergen not using Charlie. The puppets are the stars and people want to see them.

Looks like Jeff has a lot of fans in the Detroit area. I just checked ticket availability for Joe Louis Arena for his November 29th date, and the best seats left are upper bowl in the nose bleed section. It's a real tribute to Jeff, with the state of the economy, especially in Detroit....

I just caught some of the special on the Comedy Central channel tonight, but couldn't tell from the little bit I saw if this is the new one that just came out, or an older one.
I laughed myself silly, as usual with Jeff's videos.

Peanut was in rare form, on Red Bull and Nyquil....

:rotf:

This is the new one. It's for sale on Amazon and other outlets. Jeff is on quite a roll...

Ken

I saw it to....

He among others, have helped keep ventriloquism in the national spotlight.
When I do middle school workshops, vent is already accepted due to their familiarity with Mr. Dunham's work. Does anyone know if guitar guy is a relative?

I watched with 2 sides, one as a fan, and one who saw a vent that knows and adapts well from what others have done in the past..thus keeping his material fresh and current for his audiences.

Guitar Guy did look a lot like Jeff, maybe a cousin...

Ken

I TiVo'ed it last night and will watch tonight.

Not so certain about the "relationship" guys. Guitar Guy aka Brian Haner is a comedian. My guess would be they met back when Jeff was playing clubs.

On the Comedy Central special, I think they butchered the thing to fit it in the hour time slot with lots of commercials. Can't wait until the DVD gets here so I can see the whole show.

I am also looking forward to that DVD, Tom ! My wife liked what she saw on the special last night so much that she decided to buy it for me for X-mas. Yeah ! She was laughing as hard as I was...

My wife liked it but didn't like some of the unfamily friendly material.

My material is as Sherry Lewis' Lamb Chop used to say...rated GG...(goody goody)

Harris

I'm in the same boat in the same river, Harris. I perform almost exclusively at preschools and elementary schools. I just like watching Jeff for some adult escape. I also enjoy Family Guy and South Park, but would never put any of that type of humor into my shows.
