His Radio City Music Hall run in 2017 made $11.5 million over 16 shows, including Kendrick Lamar and Erykah Badu.
A few hundred tickets were available every concert, and the shows were often announced on short notice and with just a few days’ notice.
More recently, he played six shows at the Shrine at Foxwoods in Mashantucket, Conn., from June 24-27.
As Chappelle’s longtime agent, Rick Greenstein of Gersh, told Pollstar for a feature in 2020, “working with Dave has been an incredible honour and delight for 25 years.” “He’s a smart man, a someone I greatly admire.”
In addition to his ability to sing and have his voice heard, he’s also been able to bring in guests such as Michelle Wolf, Michael Che, Donnell Rawlings, among others-it’s wonderful.
“Chappelle’s Show” won’t be described, but smartphones, cameras, and recording devices will not be permitted. A bag that won’t be opened until the conclusion of the concert will be provided for attendees to place their phones and smartwatches in.
Participants will have their phones with them at all times, and unlocking stations will be available in the lobby throughout the night.
Today, at 5 p.m., tickets for Chappelle’s concert will be available for purchase. It all starts on Friday night, when the doors open at 6 p.m. and the performance starts at 8.
