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.

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.

Rodney Carrington is my favorite comedian and this DVD is hilarious. You might see this on tv but it cuts out the foul language and a lot of jokes. If your having a bad day this DVD will give you a great laugh and cheer you up.

This is a very funny comedy/music DVD. Rodney is fantastic...and so is his piano player! He definitely has a way with words!! If you don't care for nudity or strong language, this video is NOT FOR YOU!!

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!

I saw his special on tv a while back and had to buy the dvd. If you like his sense of humor then you will love this dvd. Great price and great quality and I got it in the mail when they said I would. I would definitely recommend this to any Rodney Carrington fan.

If you want a non-stop laugh every time you watch something - this would be it! You will not be disappointed.

If you like a funny stand-up comedy routine, this is for you. I love it! Of course, I'm twisted that way!! hahaha!

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. Although C&W is not my main music genre, I found him authentic, very easy onthe ear, and a ball of fun to listen to. You go, Rodney!

Rodney Carrington is one of the funniest comedians out their today.Live at the Majestic is Rodney at his best.I laughed from start to finish.
