More than 7,000 tickets have been sold for the July 31 show at the MetroCentre by comedic and controversial ventriloquist Jeff Dunham.
Staff say it’s not technically a sellout yet, but only a few single seats remain, and a suite may open up. For more information, call 815-968-5222.

Why do you call him controversial? Is there always someone that can’t take a joke and always feels insulted? good grief!

When are there going to black artist or how about the soulcircus or is the the Metro center just catering to a certain crowd

Juice: Guess my politically correct side was taking over because of his skewering of blacks, Hispanics, Jews, Muslims and gays. But he does skewer whites, Christians, straights, as well. Your point is well taken. I’ll carefully consider that word choice in the future.

Q: There hasn’t been a black artist at the MetroCentre since, since, well, I can’t remember when, either.

Must have missed that show. I thought he was always pretty clean…usually just picks on the old white guy, which is usually acceptable in society.
