I Just Read About That…

[ATTENDED: November 9, 2025] Danny Gonzalez

My daughter and I saw Kurtis Conner three years ago.  I didn’t know his stuff at all but I thought he was really funny.  So when he announced another show in the same venue I grabbed us tickets.  My son is also a fan and he wanted to go to this show too, so it was a fun night out with the kids.

We had seats in the balcony but they allowed us to sit in the ADA section.  It didn’t seem like it sold very well, which I was surprised by since last time I think it was sold out.  But we enjoyed the spaciousness of the ADA section to be sure.

Before the show started, we didn’t know if there would be an opening act.  And then Kurtis announced that his special guest would be Danny Gonzales.  The crowd went crazy, although I had no idea who he was. I see that for the last show I wrote that my daughter told me

the Holy Trinity is Kurtis Conner, Danny Gonzalez and Drew Gooden.

So, it was cool to see one third of the trinity.

Danny was very funny.  He seemed a little nervous to be doing stand up, and suggested that it was either his first time or his first time in a long while.  But he was very warmly received–that’s an understatement.  My daughter says it was very exciting to see him live.  And the one vide I can find of his introduction practically blew out the speakers of my phone

Indeed, his opening joke was really funny.  He said it was low key terrifying–having a thousand people scream at him activated his flight or fight response.  He didn’t know whether to run away or beat up each one of you individually.

He had recently had a new baby and many of his jokes were about being a parent, which were funny and relatable.

His set was short but it was much loved by the audience.  He also came out a the every end for a little refresher for everyone.

I feel like I accidentally got to see something that many people would have been super excited by.  It seems that Danny didn’t appear at any (or many) other venues.  The standard opener was  And I enjoyed it too.
