Aziz Ansari, most notable for his role as Tom Haverford on the TV show Parks and Recreation and movies like 30 Minutes or Less and Funny People has really found his voice as a stand-up comic.
Part of his 'Buried Alive' tour, it was non-stop laughs through the whole show. I especially liked "I am not doing Celebrity Ghost Stories because... I've never seen a ghost!". The vegan joke too was pretty solid with "Oh you don't want to hurt the little animals...But you're fine with the immigrants picking your vegetables. You don't care about them only because they have no fur!". He seems very comfortable on stage and his set really flowed well. There was some great fan interaction as well with stories on how people got engaged. I definitely recommend people check Aziz out next time he is in town.
Opening act Chelsea Peretti killed it too, super funny and worth checking out.

Favourite moment: I think the vegan joke was definitely one I'll be using in the future. @
