Anne McCarthy On an icy, 19-degree night in St. Louis, comedian Jo Koy was nowhere to be found. Amid a Midwestern snowstorm, his flight from Los Angeles had to make an emergency landing in Kansas City.
While waiting for the comic to arrive, a screen read: “No heckling. You are interrupting the show for everyone. Just don’t do it.
Hecklers will be removed from the venue.” Twenty-five minutes after the 8pm start time for his “Joy Koy World Tour,” the 3,100-seat Stifel Theatre announced, “Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for your patience. We are dealing with some inclement weather. The artist will be arriving shortly.” At 9pm, the Tacoma, WA native, Koy, 52, came onstage and was met with thunderous applause of support and a standing ovation.
“Holy shit, right?,” said Koy of the applause. “This big hug that you gave me is all I need, swear to god. Fucking whirlwind, goddamn.” Alluding to his disastrous Golden Globes hosting gig (and the fallout), he said, “Lot a marshmallows, man.
They’re delicious, but goddamn, they’re soft. I just come from a different time. I see the changes that are happening.
I get it, but goddamn, can we fucking laugh at ourselves?” The audience roared with applause, and someone from the audience yelled, “Fuck ‘em!” Koy said, “I got a feeling none of you motherfuckers watched it, and I’m kinda happy. Oh my god. It feels good to live in this country.
We get to say what we want to say. Don’t be apologetic about it at all. Be able to…speak your mind.” It’s Koy’s speaking his mind that drew the crowd on the cold January night.
