I'm hearing good things about the Chicago show

Yeah, apparently, he is winning again...

http://www.cnn.com/2011/SHOWBIZ/04/04/sheen.tour.chicago/index.html?hpt=P1&iref=NS1

The entire nonsensical, rambling, random multi-media production? Scrapped. In its place: a live 90-minute talk show, with Charlie as the guest.
From the start it was obvious a whole new show was planned.

Laid back and comfortable, Sheen became the guy Detroit came to see, but didn't get. This was just funny, funny Charlie.
It's surprising he could just change up the whole show in such a short time.

If you want to "watch" Charlie, because he is a train wreck; that's fine.

If you want to "watch" Charlie, because you worship him; you're a fucking loser.

Admiring a drug addict that is having a breakdown isn't something to be proud of. Paying for sex, again, isn't something to be proud of. You can admire how he was able to secure millions, but, without that money; he is nothing more than a drug addict loser paying for pussy.

and if he didn't have the millions... would he be doing this? (the world may never know)

also, we ALL pay for sex, in one way or another...

here are my criteria for a good human being:
be respectful
be responsible (arguable with sheen)
work hard
live life how YOU want to...

LOOKS like Charlie Sheen is winning again.

After fans and media slammed his opening show in Detroit, Charlie Sheen presented a radically different performance in Chicago today (AEST).
Gone was the movie clips and YouTube videos and subsequently gone was the boos from the audience - with fans at the Chicago Theatre instead lapping up all they could from the sacked Two and a Half Men star, the Chicago Tribune reported.
Sheen spent much of the performance answering questions from tour producer and friend Joey Scoleri and exchanging quips with the crowd, all with a liberal dose of the F-word.
He claimed to owe former Hollywood madam Heidi Fleiss $2 million, before explaining that he paid for sex, "because I had millions to blow. I ran out of things to buy."
He said he would love to return to Two and a Half Men and apologised to his former co-star Jon Cryer for calling him a troll.
"I was wrong. Jon's not a troll. Jon's a f*cking rock star," Sheen said.
"I think it's a great f*cking show," he said of the hit sitcom that made him the highest paid TV actor in the world, but didn't have the same kind words for his bosses.
"They didn't give a f*ck that I was hammered for eight years ... money, ratings, money, ratings."
Sheen's bizarre opening show of his 18-city My Violent Torpedo of Truth/Defeat Is Not An Option tour was in Detroit.
The troubled actor kicked off his performance an hour late, with what appeared to have been a stage version of the actor's failed online program Sheen's Korner. One man even streamed out of Detroit's Fox Theater shouting "Charlie Sheen stole my money!" according to the Detroit Free Press.
As Sheen took to the stage in Chicago the crowd began a "Detroit sucks" chant and Sheen began his performance with a poem about how much he hates the Motor City, TMZ reported.
The 45-year-old told USA Today that after the Detroit debacle he spent the five-hour bus ride to Chicago revamping the format of the show.
He said in Detroit, "everyone just got too drunk, too hot and too bored."
But there was none of that in Chicago, with Sheen saying, "they were too busy cheering."
"Seems like we fixed it. So why break it - unless we come up with something smarter, something more dangerous."
The tour is scheduled to run until May 3, with stops in New York, Boston and San Francisco, as well as Toronto and Vancouver in Canada.
Sheen was fired from Two and a Half Men in early March with CBS and Warner Bros. blaming his bizarre behavior and alleged substance abuse for their decision.
In retaliation, Sheen filed a $100 million lawsuit against Warner Bros. claiming wrongful termination.

I am more than a little curious as to what exactly Charlie Sheen has accomplished that is of any importance? Do you really think that in the grand scheme of things "Two and a Half Men" or "Major League" are grand accomplishments that will be widely remembered? If anything the only thing he has accomplished is to put a very public face on the descent into addiction. There are millions of anonymous people going about their lives on a daily basis that do things of more importance on any random workday than Charlie Sheen has done his entire career.

Millions? really? please elaborate. (importance is subjective anyways so we can agree that he has accomplished/achieved more than anyone else in this thread/forum)

While you get back to me on that one, it cannot be denied that becoming the highest paid in your field (regardless of what it is) is an achievement in itself.

The "breakdown" accusation went out the window weeks ago, I thought its quite apparent right now that this isn't a breakdown and his actions are quite deliberate and lucid.

Paying for sex, again, isn't something to be proud of.

You are right about this, I would not be proud about paying for sex with your wife either.

I heard that he's doing after-parties that people can go to for $10k a pop. If you want to sit "close" to Charlie you can pay $20k.

I'm guessing the hookers and blow at those parties are reserved just for Charlie.

Millions? really?

3.5 million people are teachers; a job of infinitely more societal value than 2&1/2 men.

2.6 million people are RNs; a job of infinitely more societal value than 2&1/2 men.


Don't get me started on medical researchers and fire fighters.


This. Whether paying cash or doing the dishes in order to get sex, it's all the same.
Sociol psychologically this is false.

Out of those teachers and RN's only a fraction are really making any difference. Most are just in it for the paycheck and job...esp teachers. That group as a whole has got to be the biggest martyr mindset ever.

I was speaking with a couple, one was a teacher and the other a higher level government worker. Both whined about their careers the whole afternoon yet when discussion came about why stay with it, they hardly focused on the "difference" they were making.

The teacher went on record saying every vacation day they have to actually work. They begin to believe their own lies.

**Sigh**

My wife loves her class/kids, works her ass off day in and day out, and even works hours after she gets home grading papers, doing paperwork, planning assignments (to my chagrin sometimes as it means less time for "us" as a couple").

I get so sick and tired of people who don't know what's it like to be a teacher feeling like they can just shit on the profession like they're some sort of saint.

She gets paid very little money (around $32k) to do a thankless job -- all because loves it.

If you are going to admire someone, pick a teacher, doctor or even one of those people that hold abandoned babies. Charlie is a mess. He may be enjoying it, but he is still wallowing and playing in his own shit. You want to watch that? Fine. You want to admire that? OK, just don't tell everyone they are fools for not licking his junk from taint to tip like certain people do.

Sorry, I prefer clean living over the sweaty ramblings of an addict that has burned out.

Also, cool is good when you know how to keep it. Charlie lost his at a very rapid rate.

being at teacher isn't a remarkable accomplishment. It is pretty easy that's why 3.5 million ppl do it.

Same thing with RN.

I'm not arguing those jobs dont have value, they obviously do, but I wouldn't say they are a significant accomplishment or achievement.

Well if her job field wasn't littered with people who can barely pass the standardized tests that they must administer, she would be paid more. Teachers are generally overpaid for their level of expertise.


Btw, the Detroit Show was only sold out because ticket brokers bought up the tickets. In the end the theater was only half full for the show, and that was well after the brokers started selling tickets for under face value.

Charlie Sheen became a teacher and an RN just by snapping his fingers and using the power of his mind.

We Love You Charlie.

The one good thing that came out of the tsunami was that we didn't have to hear about this for about three weeks.
