Aziz, Attell, Seinfeld, Chris Rock, Amy Schumer, and Dave Chappelle Lead Super-Lineup On Stage at The Cellar

Wednesday night, visitors to New York’s famed Comedy Cellar hit the jackpot when Chris Rock, Amy Schumer and Dave Chappelle all took the stage. Drop ins by gigantic stand up stars are pretty normal at the Cellar, you never know when Tracy Morgan, or Louis C.K. or Jon Stewart might stop in and hit the stage. But comedy fans who were at the Cellar last night got to see the Netflix Three all on stage at once.

But that wasn’t all, also on stage last night were Aziz Ansari, Jerry Seinfeld, Dave Attell, and Ryan Hamilton. making this possibly one of the biggest lineups ever assembled on a small stage. Leonard Outzs, John Laster and Wil Sylvince were also in the house. Jon Laster who is a giant talent himself, with a huge future, hosted last night’s show and posted on his Instagram, that they had been sitting on the steps when Chappelle told his manager he didn’t want to go up, he just wanted to see Seinfeld go up and then he was leaving. “He and Chris Rock then went back and forth about who would be next. Amy Schumer overheard them and asked if she could do five minutes also to be a part of this ‘history.'” Laster said it felt surreal working with all his idols. He described the night as the “Birds, Jordans and LeBrons” all in one hallway. “I honestly didn’t feel intimidated I felt like I belonged at least like my work did. I started to excuse myself from this picture and Amy pulled me back into it and said ‘fuck that get in the picture you were a part of this!.”

Chris Rock posted on his Instagram that he got up on stage at the Cellar to start working on material for his upcoming Total Blackout tour. The tour will culminate in his first hour special in eight years.
