Thanks for coming to Wittenberg University. I am writing this email for the sheer purpose you said no one ever emails you when you ask them too.

It is my first year working here, not a student, nor am I greek, but it was fun to see a comedian on a college campus that was funny yet able to be serious at the end and pull it off. The University that I graduated from made Comedians sign a PG and/or PG-13 rider, needless to say we usually got the tamed down humor, it was refreshing to see someone so comfortable in their own skin and not having to hold back.

The girl, Ashley, whom you profusely picked on through out the show, licked her toes, kissed her, etc., is one of my residents. She was freaked out— made me laugh though, I think she tends to take herself to seriously sometimes, so it was nice to see her relax.

The bathroom sketch was great, amazing how well you can pin women… And the true excitement that you conveyed when you released yourself from the straight jacket in 1:23 or 1:21 whichever way you want to look at it, was
just as entertaining as watching you get yourself out.

Thank you for a great night- good luck with your tour and in life.

Hey. I saw you’re act this weekend at the convention in Nashua, NH, and I just wanted to say that you were amazing. My friends and I haven’t ever laughed that hard before. My mom had been telling me about you for years, but at the time she saw you she said I wasn’t old enough to see you, I’m very happy 17 is finally old enough! I was so excited about your show that I went to your website looking for tour dates of when you’d be in the area so that I could make a trip with a bunch of people to come see you perform again. I’d love if you could get back to me with places you’ll be, I’m happy to have become one of the many who praise the great comedian Dave Reilly. Thanks so much for an amazing show and I hope to see you again soon.

Awesome show on 9/18/04 in West Hartford!! (Ok, it’s not the Venetian in Vegas, but…) My brothers and I (we were part of the minority younger crowd) went, not knowing what was in store for us. We laughed so hard that one of my brothers got hiccups, the other’s chest muscles hurt, and next day my neck and face felt funny!!

You have a unique perspecive on things and remind us of sh*t that’s funny. Yup, everytime I went to a public bathroom for a couple of days, I started snickering at what you said about male bathroom etiquette.

I’ll definitely be back for more laughs sometime…now I can really say “Been there, done that, and (literally) bought the T-shirt.”

Regards and much success to you

My wife and I saw your show Saturday night at the ELKS in Manchester,CT and it was GREAT!!!!!!!!!! I can’t remember when I have laughed so much.

Keep up the good work and I look forward to catching your show again next time your in the area.

I had the pleasure of seeing your act at the Manchester ELKS last night. I must say I haven’t had that much fun in a long time. Must be somewhere along the line I had forgotten how. Thanks for bringing me back for one night.

Saw your show at the Indian Hill Country Club in Newington, CT on Friday Aug. 20th. You are truly AWESOME!! They should call you the KING OF COMEDY! But that would’nt describe you because your much more than that.
You are absolutely an amazing and genuine entertainer!! I was impressed with how you looked so comfortable and confident up on stage and the laughter never stopped. My throat hurt from laughing so much. I have been telling everyone about you!!
You offer something that not many entertainers can, medicine for the soul. Thank you Dave! I will be at your show on Sept. 18th in West Hartford, CT and I will be bringing everyone from CT. Safe Traveling!!
See ya soon.

I went to see your show last week at Monticello in Meridan. I had no idea who you were or what I was in for….in fact I was very reluctant to even go…..but my family dragged me out to have some fun….
reminding me that I have been working too much. It was my only night off and the last thing I wanted to do was go to a show to watch people try to be funny! I was wrong…..I was very impressed with your style of comedy.
I found myself identifying with many of the things you talked about…. I guess it helps to laugh at yourself and it reminded me to stop taking life too seriously!!! Thank you for that!! I really did enjoy the show and was happy I spent my night off in your audience…..! But most of all… what you said at the end of your show….touched my heart…..for life has been pretty challanging these days……and your words hit home…. I left not only with my sides hurting from laughing so much….but those words pulled at my heart strings…!!! I just wanted you to know that!!!
I wish you much happiness and success in your career!!
