Six Degrees: Norfolk gearing up for Jon Stewart

 Six Degrees:  Norfolk gearing up for Jon Stewart

Jon Stewart promotional photoAs we posted here earlier, Daily Show “monkey” Jon Stewart has a gig in Norfolk coming up, and he’s done an interview with the Daily Press in anticipation of it. It makes me sad that I can’t actually get out to see all the shows I post about here; that’s probably why I’m always so pleased to see new interviews from these guys when they hit the stand-up circuit. And even though Jon’s phoning this one in (literally), it’s great that he crams so much substance into it.

Why now and why Chrysler Hall?

“I wanted to get beat up by a Navy man … I thought of going to a shipyard,” he says, before conceding that he was looking for somewhere he could get to quickly. He’s quick to give his Virginia cred, immediately mentioning he’s a William and Mary graduate, class of ‘84. He’s also familiar with Chrysler Hall, site of a U2 concert he attended in 1982 while a student in Williamsburg. “I’m going to perform a U2 tribute,” he decides on the spot, and promises that the whole show will be laden with references to the Old Dominion. Advised that fellow comedian Jerry Seinfeld has done shows at Chrysler Hall, he deadpans, “All the New York Jews get together to talk about Norfolk.”

Hope someone out there gets a chance to see him, either at Norfolk or the shows he has coming up at Washington, D.C.’s GW University — he does a fabulous stand-up show.
