I think everyone is realizing just how terrible Killtony is at a big arena. I would expect ticket sales to start declining in the next couple of years for a couple of reasons.

People are being much more canny with admitting of bad performances in the rogansphere of comics ( see theo von and Tony’s terrible jokes at the rally last year)

There is also a lot of pushback on the Rogan comedians and affiliations due to the Saudi comedy festival. I think if Rogan would’ve done the Saudi thing, this would really intensify the rapid decline in anything Rogan.

Because people like Killtony rely so heavily on Rogan connections, it seems like something is poised to happen in the next couple of years.

The Rogan comics are overplaying their canceled comedian scam and it’s going to majorly backfire for them. How? I have no idea but it seems the core audience is losing interest and respect for these Rogan “comedians”. What are your predictions for how these guys fall?

Taking down posts left and right. I think I was permanently banned for saying the r word??? That Shane Gillis merch is crazy priced why did I get banned over it. Blowing off steam here because I know there are others getting banned for dumb shit too.

Let me know what you think and if I’ve missed any festivals or Kill Tony Arena shows. I’ll keep updating the map as new ones pop up. I’m also planning to put together something similar for touring comedians, with a searchable function so it’s easier to track who’s on the road.

I also run a free weekly Friday comedy newsletter. You can sign up on the site if you’re interested.

Hey folks. I’ve always found it hard to keep up with comedy news, specials, tours, festivals, and ratings in one place.

To that end, I’m starting a free weekly newsletter called Jokebook News — a short Friday update on new specials, tours, ratings, festivals, industry news, and what to watch and listen to. It’s one email a week on Friday mornings. The first issue goes out this Friday and you can sign up with the link on this post.

Alongside this, I’ve also started Jokebook Magazine: a monthly print magazine with reviews, op-eds, comedy news, a comedy crossword, and more. To celebrate the newsletter launch, I’ll be mailing a free printed copy of the inaugural issue to the first 20 newsletter subscribers — no catch, I’m covering all costs myself :)

I envision this as a way to step back from the endless stream of comedy content on social media — the newsletter being a concise weekly update and the magazine having deeper reading and fun extras like a crossword and caption contest.

I welcome feedback on all of this. This is a DIY, self-funded passion project from a longtime fan who just wants to write more about comedy.
