Jim Gaffigan: Everything is Wonderful!

“Hot Pockets energy, Catholic guilt, and food-based existentialism — Gaffigan's…”

Vina Robles Amphitheatre, 3800 Mill Road, Paso Robles. June 7th. Jim Gaffigan — the comedian whose Hot Pocket has become cultural shorthand, whose entire stand-up catalog is built on the proposition that food, family, and the quiet absurdity of domesticity are the funniest things in the world — bringing the Everything is Wonderful! tour to one of the most beautiful outdoor venues in California.

Vina Robles is the amphitheater that changes what an outdoor show means. The vineyard surrounds the stage on three sides. The Central Coast hills hold the sound in the late-afternoon air. Jim Gaffigan live, in this setting, on a June evening when the valley is at its warmest and most welcoming — the material and the location are doing exactly the same work: making everything feel, at least for two hours, like it actually is wonderful.
