From our Facebook page, a couple more reviews. These from Las Vegas locals, who certainly get to see more than their fair share of shows ou here

The first is the subject of this post and it was sent to us by Sandy Singer.

"One of the BEST shows I've seen in 17 years in Las Vegas !!!!"


Also a lovely comment from Lisa and TJ, a mother and son from Las Vegas...

"My son and I super enjoyed your show today! :)
(Well, I enjoyed it... Pretty sure he did too, but he was busy clapping, and telling me to stop warning him not to eat the razor blades). :)"

Nice Comments from Nice People!

Here are just a few more reviews in the form of comments left at the Spike and Hammer FB page regarding the show. As always, we're humbled by the kind remarks, honored that people came to the show, and happy to have a venue to bring our oddball style of comedy and magic to audiences every week.

Thanks so much to everyone for being our friends and fans!

"I never cease to be amazed at how well you two work off each other, and work off the audience. You make the best use of "volunteers" I have ever seen in a Vegas show! Your humor is drop dead funny, and razor sharp accurate! I've never see the same show twice when I've come to see Spike and Hammer. And your comedic timing is amazing!"

The Reviews Keep Rolling in for Spike and Hammer

I love real reviews from real people!

Yeah I know that official media reviewers are "real people". I just mean that it somehow means more to me to hear great things form everyday people who come to see our show and are genuinely happy they did.

Soon after receiving such a heartfelt and glowing review on City-Data, some folks decided to check out the show for themselves. Even better was the fact that they felt compelled to respond on that bulletin board and add their own review.

We are always grateful for anyone who tries to spread the word and this instance is no exception. We always encourage fans to tell their friends in whatever manner they see fit. We also know not every review will be stellar...but we're sure happy that most every one we've seen thus far has been so positive!

Here's a follow-up post found on City-Data.com

"I just got back from the show. I spoke to them afterward... they remembered you and appreciated the review you posted here.

You were right.... they are fantastic and funnier than hell. My stomach hurt several times from laughing so hard. I highly recommend spending an afternoon to go see them. Great show - they definitely deserve a bigger stage!"

Real Reviews from Real People: Afternoon Comedy magic Show Starring Spike and Hammer

Got an email from Scott, a man who saw our show with his wife this past Thursday and truly loved it.

He told us he'd posted a review on City-Data.com, a travel/city info site he frequents.

I really love it when we strike such a powerful chord with our audience. I know not all reviews will be this great, but it is sure heart-warming when they are.

Thanks, Scott!


Spike & Hammer - A Fantastic Show Downtown

---

As you know, I'm relatively new to Vegas, so some of you may already be aware of this, but I wanted to advise everyone of a fantastic afternoon show at the Four Queens downtown: Spike & Hammer. These guys put on a hilarious comedy magic act in the LA Comedy Showroom at 4:00pm.

First of all, let me emphasize that I am not usually a fan of magic acts, and would never spend good (or bad) money to see a magician. And in fact, going to the show yesterday was not my idea, but I was with a group of people who wanted to see it, so I figured that I would suffer through it for what I thought would be a poor-to-mediocre 30-45 minute magic show. Boy, was I wrong!

From the opening minutes, this show was a non-stop laugh riot, pausing only for some serious magic acts where laughter would not be appropriate. There was also a lot of audience participation (including my wife and myself) in the acts that added to the great time had by all. Spike and Hammer are both funny and talented, and are very personable, as demonstrated by their constant interaction with the audience.

We've spent hundreds of dollars for tickets to shows on the Strip and not had as enjoyable a time as we had yesterday afternoon for a fraction of the cost. Regular price for the tickets is only $14.95, although our group had received discount coupons that were being handed out at the entrance to the Four Queens on Fremont Street that reduced the cost to $9.95, which included a drink from the bar in the showroom.

The only disappointing aspect of the afternoon was the small size of the audience. I don't think that there were more than 30-40 in attendance. But I guess that is understandable given that I, myself, had to be coerced into going. But that was just because I was clueless as to how good the show was going to be. These guys definitely deserve a larger audience and I am doing my part to make it so! If you go to the show based on my recommendation, not only do I guarantee that you won't be sorry, I'll wager that you'll come back to this board and post a thank-you to me!

I know that whenever we have visitors in the future, we will definitely take them to see Spike & Hammer. In fact, we may not even wait for visitors; next time we're downtown we'll probably drop in to see them again. And this time, I won't need to be coerced!

If you're interested in seeing a little something of what I've been raving about, here's a link I came across to a short video on their own website:

P.S. What I thought was going to be a 30-45 minute show, actually turned out to be almost an hour-and-a-half. Ten bucks, a drink, and 1 1/2 hours of entertainment!

Where else but in Vegas! God, I love this town!

Afternoon Comedy Magic Show Starring Spike and Hammer: Now HERE'S a REVIEW!

Charlie U. has been a supportive fan almost form the very beginning of our run at the Four Queens. He's come to see the show many times and has even brought friends. He is clearly a lover of comedy and magic and has seen a lot of shows in Las Vegas. Recently he posted this review on a popular travel website (without us having to bribe him with free tickets, booze, or any sort of payola either!).

"I've seen this show a few times in the past 10 weeks that it has been running at the Four Queens. It's an upbeat afternoon of fun! I don't think I've ever seen a better use of audience volunteers on any downtown Vegas stage! The comedic energy flows from the moment Spike and Hammer come on stage, and doesn't let up throughout the show until the applause dies down and the audience exits to greet the performers.

Spike and Hammer play off each other with a freshness and creativity that is awesome to watch. Spike's deadpan comedy rivals Hammer's expressive face as they go from one stream of thought to another with ease and alacrity! It's a real family show....the audience is always treated with respect. The magic is amazing, the comedy is plentiful, the performers are just plain fun to spend an afternoon with at the show.

See this show.....you will be doing yourselves a real favor in uplifting your spirits and bringing more smiles to your faces that you can possibly imagine."




Thanks so much, Charlie for being a great friend and fan of Spike and Hammer!

Vegas Seven magazine is trying to find out who is the best comedian in Las Vegas. Among the people on their list of choices are Terry Fator, who is a ventriloquist (not a traditional stand-up comic) and Frank Caliendo who does voice impressions (also, not a traditional stand-up).

If those guys can be in the running, so can we!
