If George Strait started doing stand up it would be something like Rodney Carrington(Obviouly George would have to go 'blue' with the language. lol). With the jeans, shirt and cowboy hat, he is not far from being a country singer - and he can sing as well as be funny. I'm new to the world of Rodney so I cannot really compare this DVD to anything he's done in the past but now I am a new fan.
The songs are the most entertaining part of his show and, if you don't listen to the lyrics too closely, you'd swear you was watching a George Strait acoustic show. By that I mean the guy can actually carry a tune - the comedy is not in his bad singing but in the lyrics. The way he sings with funny facial expressions is hillarious and his piano player sideman getting into the act as well by going off on tangents singing until Rodney stops him. I am not easily offended at all so if you are, this guy is not for you. Funny is funny, if you can't handle profanity or sexual references then you should probably stick to something like Bill Cosby. Otherwise, this DVD is well worth buying and it makes you wonder how far Rodney would get if he actually turned into a serious singer(which in the bonus materials on the DVD, he says he has no intention of doing).
The bonus feature is entertaining too. You get to see Rodney meet the fans, hang out backstage and hear a few new songs not on the stand-up show including a 'serious' song he wrote about a friend of his who passed away. Be sure and listen to that one.
A very funny and entertaining DVD unless your a fuddy duddy who can't handle language.

This was definitely a hysterical act! My boyfriend loved it, I believe because he talked about things that guys REALLY think and feel such as wanting to see womens "tata's" and being sad with their small and slowly drooping "minime". LOL. Needless to say it's not a "family" movie, but is a perfect chill out (bust a gut) with your "adult" friends kind of show!

We were at the venue for the filming of this DVD, and I've got to say, he put on one heck of a show. The best thing about Rodney is that he's always fresh. He very rarely uses his old bit, so each time you see him, you're in for surprises, and this one was no exception.
But it seems that he has taken a bit more of a conservative path since his show on ABC. If you've heard his old albums (Laugh You [...] and Morning Wood), you will probably agree that this is a bit on the "light" side.
Just about anything that comes out of Rodney's mouth is hilarious, but I personally came to love the guy for his complete lack of respect for anyone or anything. While "Live at the Majestic" and "King of the Mountains" (they are both from the same show) are both well-produced and extremely entertaining, they lack the level of insult that made him famous.

A rare combination of country music and raunch!
Rodney is one-of-a-kind. And even if he did not do side-splitting risque', get's-ya-where-ya-live humor, the man has a very fine singing voice. Read more

Rodney Carrington Live At The Majestic
Very pleased on my recent purchase of the slightly "used" DVD. Shipping was prompt. I wasa very pleased with my puchase. Kathy Lay

Definitely adult material
Purchased this DVD after hearing Rodney on Satellite radio. Parts are funny, but the DVD is very vulgar and includes brief nudity. Definitely should be viewed by adults only.
