August 1, 2021Hilarious, Class-Act, Wonderful!
We had the distinct pleasure of seeing Sid Davis perform on June 10th, 2021 at Visani Italian Steakhouse & Comedy Theater in Port Charlotte, Florida.
He is firstly, a Class-Act with Charisma, and a great attitude.
He was hilarious, clever, professional, interesting, relatable, and, when it was time to go, we didn't want it to end.
We will go to see him anytime he is in the area.
Superb act!
Thanks Sid! 🤗

February 1, 2016Sid kept everyone laughing the entire show!
Sid was hilarious! His jokes were funny and his show flowed really nicely. We had about 60 people and everyone was laughing the entire time! He was really easy to work with and the whole process was so smooth. I will most definitely hire Sid again! If you want to have a good time and laugh, he's your guy!

I was fortunate enough to be in the audience to experience the amazing talent of the stand up comedian Sid Davis. I'd never seen Sid in a live show, and anytime Sid is performing near me I'll be there. His style, demeanor, and ability to incorporate real life events into fits of laughter, is amazing. His comedic timing is impeccable and his personality filled the venue. He's at the top of must see, never to be missed, comedian list. He kept the audience engaged. There were no awkward silent moments, but rather continual laughter, the kind where your stomach aches, and you have tears flow. His mannerisms, as well as his jokes, are captivating. I didn't want the show to end. He's truly one of the best talents I've had the honor to be in the same room with. I look forward to, and will not miss, his next show near me.

I thank you Teri for being head of the posse trying to get me to Portland Oregon for several years; and I'm so glad we made it happen! I can't wait to come back! LYMI Sid!

June 23, 2015One of the best ever!
Had the privilege of seeing him at the Santa Ana Star Stage outside of Albuquerque - he was incredible making me cry through most of it. Natural delivery with a gift for connecting to the audience. Why isn't on the main stream I have no idea - other than the fact he doesn't need gimmicky crudeness to be amazing. Definitely worth seeing!

What to expect
Sid Davis was called, "the Mark Twain" of our time by author Steven Kunes.
"I paint funny verbal pictures of events I've experienced and observed. Situations we all can relate to. Sometimes the audience doesn't know weather to nod in agreement or shake their head in laughter."
Since he attending the THE TONIGHT SHOW staring JOHNNY CARSON in 1979, Comedy was in my blood. It just took a long time to be taken seriously.
Sid works clean and is a professional; Period.
VERY IMPORTANT! Sid can provide (at no charge) his own audio and spotlight systems to create a perfect atmosphere for a comedy show in your venue.

Sid was the headliner for the humane society fundraiser. Sid Davis is one of the best we've had on stage. Immediately engaging and in control of the audience. He was perfect for the entire audience mix. Easy to work with, a real professional. A definite 'must see' if Sid is in your area. Funny, very funny man. Nice guy too, clean show.

Sid flew into Santa Monica to be on my show "West of the 405". Absolutely no one knew what hit them! It was a comedy slaying you wanted to be a part of. I've been doing standup for 15 yrs & sometimes you don't know who you will be working with...Sid is the one you hope you'll be sharing the stage with.
