Bo Burnham - "Can't Handle This" and Hecklers in Baltimore 12/3/15

None of this content belongs to me, it's all Bo's property!
SONG STARTS AT 4:45
This is from Bo's Make Happy Tour on December 3, 2015 in Baltimore, Maryland. It includes two hecklers one of whom Bo ended up ejecting from the show, and the entirety of Can't Handle This and his monologue before it. The heckler he ejected had been shouting out and being obnoxious throughout the entirety of the show so it was totally warranted! I hope you enjoy, the show was amazing and Bo was fantastic as usual!

[@RyanBCreative]

Just comparing this bit and to the netflix special you can see how the heckler through off Bo's groove. People need to understand that he is performing a memorized set and blurting out nonsense totally fucks up a comedians groove

[@VK-pk8uz]

The first performance, maybe, but the 50th, nah.. He can play about.

[@paulthoresen8241]

That's why some people do it. A lot of hecklers yell out the punchlines before the comedian gets to them, or if the joke mentions something like cancer they will yell out 'my sister died of cancer' to make the audience feel awkward about laughing at anymore jokes. Basically hecklers are cunts.

[@allykayyy2683]

I feel for him when he first started but now he's got his own lights guy and security personnel and so on....he can handle one heckler. It's easier when you can throw them out, in front of everyone.

[@Xanderqwerty123]

Why would someone heckle minutes before the most important part of the show? His comedy shows end on an oddly metaphorical and introspective piece that is funny as well as expressing his anxieties and his unhappiness and it gives his silly comedy show a very deep and personal meaning, and to interupt that momentum is disrespectful, rude, and inconsiderate to those watching and Bo. Heckling is part of a live show, and in some instances can make a show even better, but damn thats just cruel.

I watched an interview with him about this show. I was also really concerned about the parts about his mental health and not being happy but he said someone to the effect of "When I make jokes everyone laughs and no one things I'm racist or misogynistic but when I make jokes about being sad or depressed everyone says 'that's him, the real him' but I'm playing a character, it's a performance, it's theater. There is obviously truth to that with performance, but, like the funny parts, it's exaggerated for the show." Just in case anyone was worried, outside of performing he seems very well. I think it's genius how he performs.

God this makes me feel so much better for him. I saw someone comment under the What special that “it’s like there was 12 people on stage” and now I feel silly that I never understood how much he exaggerated the depression/anxiety for his shows. I mean, yes his anxiety is a huge issue and is the reason why he hasn’t made anymore standup, but I’m glad it’s not as heavy as he makes it feel when he plays live.

He's a genius. His composing and lyricist abilities are amazing and he's both witty and honest. I've always loved watching him because of the stuff he's actually talking about. I don't know any other comedian who can make me rethink life, get emotional, and laugh until I can't breathe all at the same time. He has that perfect blend of saying some seriously depressing shit and then doing the comedic equivalent of "lol" at the end of it so people don't get too worried.

8:50 is really real. He's not making jokes, it seems like he actually feels that way. He's just expressing it in a comedic way. If you ever watch any interviews with Bo Burnham it seems he really does have a love/hate relationship with his career and the nature of it. I'm just glad that he is in tune with himself enough to realize that he wouldn't get gratification from just delivering shitty jokes that are guaranteed to get a laugh from a drunk audience; he actually wants to express himself while giving joy to other people in a down-to-earth way that people really relate to on a deeper level.

[@brendans.8738]

Bo actually just did an AMA on Reddit and said exactly this. He said this part is the most heartfelt performance he's ever given, because it reflects his actual feelings. He said that he is actually very anxious on stage and apparently prone to panic attacks, and the pressure of performance really takes a toll. By sharing it with his audience it helped just a little.

[@phrozenover781]

Rewatching this 2 months later just makes me relate to him even more. I'm sure the anxiety/bittersweet relief he felt when he began that song was pretty intense. Glad it's on Netflix now.

[@beepbeepitsabird748]

Remember though, he says that it's still a dramatified version of the truth. It's still his theatrical persona. Paraphrasing his words-"if i make jokes they understand that it's not true, but if i talk about more serious things they think it's all completely honest."

I watch the finale to Can’t Handle This almost 3x a week now. I feel like Bo‘s message to us, his audience, had so many layers but the message I received through this song is that no one tells you everything that comes along with the dreams you set for yourself. When the cost of having what you want gets hidden, one day you end up getting what you asked for, but it’s nothing like you imagined. I don’t know who else out there knows tho feeling, but it hit me, and honestly knowing that others like Bo feel it makes me feel more okay feeling it too. I’m so grateful he made this. I know Bo feels alone, and I feel alone a lot, but I’m just glad I’m not the only one.

Bo can go from Pringle's cans to the complexities of mental health and how it can affect a performer and reminds us that behind every joke, every act, there is a person just like us who has their own struggles and that despite having a platform of sorts they may not be able to express themselves in the ways that matter the most in regards to their own well-being. This introspective and insightful commentary laced with humor is precisely why I love Bo Burnham and his work. I think his line about giving the audience what he can't give himself is especially poignant. His comedic creativity and openness about the person he is and what he goes through is just beautiful to me.

[@meganruth17]

thanks for the attentive comment! :)

[@lillypad4811]

"as he attempts to give you something he cannot give himself" ouchhhhh my heart

[@nikkivolpone2436]

Is it ok, that i'm crying?

[@thepoppins2745]

I did

[@DarkestofTimes]

Naw I seriously did cry the first time I heard it, mainly because I understand so deeply exactly what he feels sometimes.

[@UMADInc]

Make Happy is the first performance where I can legitimately say I laughed, I cried and was challenged on many levels.

[@hollisullivan102]

Wow wtf just finding out how many other people cry from this- I was so embarrassed that this is was making mega ugly cry on repeat. Happy to know others get it, even though I still don’t

[@Linz_Chick]

Holy shit No matter how weird the sound is This song still brings me to tears

[@obviouslynova4803]

"Oh good, it's just us"

[@instantaneouscube2994]

you know, it would be really cool if all the people bitching about the filming cpuld shut up and appreciate that someone has been so kind as to make this available for them in the first place. thank you

[@meganruth17]

you rock for this!

[@yukii381]

"Remember the song two songs ago" We all know what hes talkin about.

[@RyanGarlandCovers]

Incredible filming job wow just wow 👍🏼

[@Nintendont64]

When he says "remember that song from two songs ago" is he telling him to kill himself?

[@KingOfCalling]

exactly! haha

[@aarenmarchi4667]

Wow, Baltimore really listened to his lyrics. That's beautiful

[@jwackyj8134]

Generally what goes through someone’s mind thinking it’s OK to ask for an autograph during a show and genuinely thinking that they will give it to you.

[@amendolaraholisticpiano4388]

I LOVE this so much!!!! Bo Burnham is so amazing. He is a genius. I did check out Tim Minchin, and yes, he is also a genius! there's room for two great genius musican, artists, comedians in this big world. (I still have a big crush on Bo Burnham, lol, though I love Tim Minchin platonically :.) Truthfully, i never got to meet or see either of them live, but I can dream :.)

[@danielrovinsky9161]

Now that's what I call good camera work

[@auzgirg6029]

Oh my..SO much respect for Bo. He really is an inspiration, for everyone

[@zen-ti3ni]

still hits me the same way in 2020

[@Maddie_is_a_swiftie]

Why did this make me laugh and cry 😭 I just watched make happy again and then saw this and now I’m sobbing again

[@isabeladacosta9039]

Was I the only one that was really touched by the end of this performance? I got a little concerned for Bo.... :\

[@molonlabe6237]

yes, absolutely. that whole last couple minutes was what some comics feel on the inside. not just comics, plenty of people in general can at least relate to a lot of those feelings. looking for an outlet and sometimes even that outlet isn't enough.

[@BitchItsOli1023]

+MochiBlog モチブログ I think if it was just entertainment then there would be no point to make it sad. I think he really does think what he's saying here.

[@alex8480]

Yes, you were literally the only person who was touched by this.

[@imkool51391]

Imagine sitting through the entire show and then getting kicked out for heckling and missing can't handle this...what a bum

[@cwarren165]

for my money, bo is the best comic we have today

[@OnlyARide]

"The audience-performer relationship is a prison." Is that you, Ram Dass?

[@meganruth17]

😂😂😂😂

[@kimlf1176]

Jesus this is cool. I've missed Bo's way of performance, can't fucking wait to see the netflix special. Seems like this song is a part of that!! :D

[@3budsyeah891]

My favorite part of this is when the woman says "No, I don't think I would I have small hands" or something like that and I just thought their commentary is hilarious

[@nicheburger]

guy at 8:14 "good. good. that's my fav" me

[@kaciegresch8010]

I was so relieved it went hecklers THEN Can’t Handle This. If someone had dared mess with Bo AFTER this song, I would be found hunting them down Jay And Silent Bob style

[@stillhere95]

Don't' mind me, I am just waiting for the people in the background, sweetly discussing pringles and burritos, to be hit with Bo's existential crisis.

[@Mancub2b]

props for holding it horizontal

[@miriamramirez5012]

Bo suffers from anxiety, he spoke about it in an interview. He said that he'd get panic attacks on stage. Thats why in some of his shows he was out of breath. This song is probroly him trying to tell everyone of how bad the anxiety was.
