Chelsea Handler at Keller

Alex and I saw Chelsea Handler last night at the Keller Auditorium in Portland. I was very excited to go see her live (Alex was too!) The Chelsea Lately show is a favorite in the Schiltz household. BEST late night television show hands down! When tickets went on sale I was planning on buying them, but the price was so expensive I held off and I debated it. By the time I decided we did want to go I went back and the show was 100% sold out! I was bummed, but..... the demand was so high they added a second show! They were very expensive still, but it was fun and got us out of the house! The first show was at 8pm and ours was at 10:30pm. Alex and I made a date night out of it!
We decided to go walk the waterfront before heading to dinner at Lapellah. We had a nice dinner and then headed over to Keller. We got there at 9:15PM (thinking at 10'ish we could get in) and little did we know what one drama after another would happen and the doors didn't open until 11:15'ish for us! We stood in line outside for 2 hours!!! Finally, we got in and went to our seats. But not before snagging my copy of the book (read below!) Honestly, our seats were not that great. I could have saved us a bit of money and bought balcony seats and we probably would have had a better view!

 I wish I would have held off on reading the book prior to her show because a lot (90% atleast) of the material was from the book. It's all okay though because it is still funnier in person. The show was a solid 2 hours and I was happy about that (it was pretty spendy, so I hoped we'd get a show long show out of it.) It was a good night! We didn't get home until after 2AM! It ran pretty late. But we had a blast.... and I got to MEET her! She was totally sweet!

I got Chelsea's newest book Chelsea, Chelsea Bang Bang  the day it came out earlier this month and I loved it! It's her third and final  book (BOO!)  but indeed she went out with a BANG! I learned at the show that you had to buy your book THERE to get it autographed! I bought (and read mine already), so me being the sucker that I am I bought ANOTHER copy (this time for twice as much as I did online the first time) so I could meet Chelsea and have it signed. She was really sweet. I talked to her for a minute and she signed my book. I love her!
