You can go to Pete Davidson’s show at the guitar hotel. Just don’t tweet about it.
Going to see Pete Davidson at Hard Rock Live on Dec. 9?
There are a few things you should know. Well, one thing.
What happens at Davidson’s show stays at Davidson’s show.
It’ll be in, to use a “Seinfeld” reference, The Vault.
So, yeah: Don’t go telling your Facebook friends about any jokes. Don’t tweet a video even if the comic does something outrageous. God forbid if you take a pic.
You’ll have to sign a nondisclosure agreement, aka an NDA, entertainment website Consequence of Sound first reported.
The outlet got hold of a copy from a ticket buyer who was going to see the “Saturday Night Love” comedian last week at the Sydney Goldstein Theater in San Francisco. The individual allegedly received the NDA form via email before the show.
It allegedly said: “The individual shall not give any interviews, offer any opinions or critiques, or otherwise participate by any means or in any form whatsoever (including but not limited to blogs, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, or any other social networking or other websites whether now existing or hereafter created).”
If the attendee does post something about what goes on during his act, this would be considered a “breach” of the agreement and the “individual shall pay company, upon demand, as liquidated damages, the sum of one million dollars, plus any out of pocket expense.”
Variety reports that a similar NDA was handed out before Davidson’s show in Chicago last weekend.
We kind of get it, though. Davidson isn’t known for his political correctness, nor is he known for being neighborly to fans.
Back in August, at the University of Central Florida the comedian had a mini meltdown when audience members used their cellphones to take video of him. The 26 year old “Suicide Squad” star broke from his act and began yelling and cursing at people and using the R-word.
It is unclear if NDAs will be sent to Hard Rock Live ticket-goers; an email to the venue went unanswered.
Details: Pete Davidson co-headlines a show with John Mulaney at Hard Rock Live at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood at 8 p.m., Monday, Dec. 9. The comedians will perform two separate sets.
