Lionel Richie Philadelphia Concert reviews

Too many "F" bombs.
"Two front comediennes performed in the show. The first was self-depricating, tedious, with few laughs and monotone. The second had better pacing but the sarcasm wore thin. Lionel, the veteran, served up a lot of laughs, was wiser, more topical, and better paced. The location hosts many concerts with wonderful sound. However, that night, the sound was uneven and a bit shrill. Missed a few punch lines were evident, especially when only one side of the room was laughing. Cosby did insist on adjustment at the beginning of the show. Also, Dr. Cosby didn't need profanity to make people roar. I would probably catch her again on Comedy Central but not pay for a personal appearance."
