This is really a product from Gazzo! I myself was suprised with the variety of lines/jokes in this book, he has a joke for almost anything you need in a street show and even any other sort of show. Only thing I would say is that it is really tempting to use all the lines and become a Gazzo clone haha.

Not sure if I like it.
Material: some funny stuff, but have to pick through it to find what suites you. Didn't think alot of it was that good Presentation: disappointing, nice glossy pages but then a cardboard cover makes it look cheap. few typos Not sure it's worth the money. If I had my chance again I probably wouldn't buy it and maybe just research some one-liners for free on the internet. If you've seen any of Gazzo's performances, he uses most of the good lines there, so didn't get anything extra from the book. Did this review help you?
No really there is likely something for everyone in this book. He does use some lines that are offensive to some people and you will need to use your head and select the right situation for all your lines including the pearls from this book. Gazzo is a strong character and if you are not then some of these are not for you. Be careful and enjoy.

There are some really great one-liners in this book! If you're looking for some great comedic quotes and one-liners this is the book for you. I would also suggest it to help boost your imagination. You can tweak these to fit your repertoire or your presentation as well! Highly recommended!

This book is full of jokes, one liners, and presentation tips for the real working performer. There is always something new to learn whenever you open this book. Lines range from kids-adult humor and are very well thought out. My favorite are the one liner jokes!

I love Gazzo, and I love this book. The man is brilliant, and this book is nothing short of that. The information in it is awesome. However, for a printed pamphlet, is simply too much money. Granted, it's excellent information, but considering the margin on this, it's simply overpriced.
I tend to throw away a lot of money on needless purchases, so overall I'm happy that this one is something I'll get some use out of, but if you're on a tight budget, you may want to pass this one up until you've saved a bit. You'll use the information, but you're definitely paying for it. Did this review help you?
Gazzo and I have never met but we love working on the street, where funny stuff happens and audiences like funny stuff. My character is gentle, but Gazzo is cheeky. The jokes in this book range from g-rated and clever to raunchy-LOL that's not-my-style. There is enough usable stuff in this small-page-sized and fully packed booklet to please anyone looking for some great lines. One I've used for when someone walks between me and the audience: "Don't worry, sir. It's just a stage you're walking through." I gave not five stars because for me too much of the material was on the cheeky side and one has to have a certain thick skin, which my character doesn't have, which most characters don't have, to use these convincingly. Gazzo is one of a kind, and he does have some funny things to say!

i first gave this a bad review...
but now i use all of his jokes all the time!!! i even use them against the "cool people" at school! and i completely blow them out of the water!!!!!! i use his jokes in my routines as well! and if there is a heckler......i just take in a breath, and blow em up! my favorite 1 is......"don't yell at me...i aint ur mother!" Did this review help you?
i had high expectations but this wasnt as good as i thought... unless you like offensing ppl on a day to day basis dont get this...most of the jokes were dirty or rude....
on the upside the book did show me how to handle hecklers and blow em out of the water... there were only about 20 jokes that i might use..... but if your having trouble with hecklers i recommend this book.... Did this review help you?
Don't be discouraged if this book is mean or racy. Trust me if you work out in the real world you will face a lot of a$$holes who heckle to a point were it is at everyones expense even your show. It is good to know some of the jokes in this book they will give you a reputation as a guy not to mess with.
