Surrounded by friends and family, Jimmy Kimmel hosted the grand opening of his comedy club at Las Vegas’ Linq Promenade Friday night. Invited guests were treated to a surprise lineup at Jimmy Kimmel’s Comedy Club that included Sarah Silverman, Chris Tucker, Pete Holmes and Kimmel’s sister Jill. Longtime warm-up guy Don Barris opened the show and Gina Brillon closed it.
JKCC is split between two levels. Audiences enter the ground floor space which resembles a comfy parlor with a large bar, merchandise space and a memorabilia from Kimmel’s career including puppets from Crank Yankers, the neon sign from the Man Show, photos with his Live guests like David Letterman and books by fellow comedians such as Howard Stern, Kevin Hart, George Carlin and Don Rickles, who Kimmel holds in highest regard.
As the city’s residency market becomes more and more flooded with live music, Wynn Las Vegas has recently had tremendous success with sell out nights booked by AEG from the likes of Chris Tucker, Sebastian Maniscalco and Jo Koy. Tucker now lives in Las Vegas and Koy also grew up there and owns a restaurant on the westside. JKCC will take advantage of the boon and introduce audiences to a true comedy club setting — one that doesn’t currently exist like it does in Los Angeles or New York.
jimmykimmel Does he remember how to put on a comedy show? All he does is bash the President now. His show is no longer funny.

jimmykimmel SarahKSilverman .SarahKSilverman ? So, basically, the place will not only be not funny, but with washed-out unfunny idiots like Sarah headlining, the place will probably shut down for good by next Spring...
