Steve-O brings comedy tour to El Paso and tickets are selling fast
“Jackass” star Steve-O is bringing his "Crash and Burn" comedy tour to El Paso for two nights. Steve-O will perform at the Comic Strip in El Paso on Friday, Nov. 6, and Saturday, Nov. 7, featuring stand-up comedy and videos of stunts considered too extreme for the hit MTV series “Jackass,” according to the event's description. Steve-O rose to fame after his stunt videos caught the attention of Jeff Tremaine, the creator, director and producer of “Jackass,” who was working with Johnny Knoxville to develop a stunt-based reality show. Since then, Steve-O has built a successful career beyond television, becoming a New York Times bestselling author with his memoir, “Professional Idiot,” and establishing himself in the world of stand-up comedy, according to his biography. Tickets are selling out for Steve-O tour Tickets are still available for select performances. Friday's 7 p.m. show has sold out of general admission tickets, although front-row seats remain available for $50.50. General admission tickets, which start at $29.50, are still available for the 9 p.m. performance. For Saturday, Nov. 7, general admission tickets are available for both performances.
