Comedy Rocks 2

Comedy Rocks 2 returns with Montréal radio legends Terry & Ted hosting a night packed with comedy, storytelling, and rock-and-roll chaos — all in support of the PKD Foundation of Canada.

Featuring sharp stand-up from Émile Khoury, Danny Z, Ben Cardilli, and Pino Pirillo, plus live music from actual rockstar Charles V. Rox Vaccaro and Montréal’s most proudly overrated cover band Durty Sumthin’, this show is the perfect blend of laughs, riffs, and “did they really just say that?” moments.

If you missed the first one, even better — you can pretend this was the plan all along.

Come laugh, rock out, and accidentally do something wholesome.

🎤 YOUR MCs

Terry DiMonte & Ted Bird

Montréal morning-radio GOATs Terry & Ted keep the show moving with classic banter, questionable wisdom, and a few glory-day stories they definitely didn’t run by their lawyers.

😂 COMEDY LINEUP

Émile Khoury — Montreal’s Sharpest Multilingual Menace

As seen on JFL, ComediHa, Sans Commentaire and Lunch Sérieux, Émile delivers cultural precision with the energy of someone who definitely double-parks.

Danny Z — Dad Energy, Bad Decisions

A guy who thinks he’s funny and knows he’s terrible at thinking. Expect hair-loss confessions, marriage meltdowns, kid chaos, and the midlife crisis that pushed him into comedy at 40.

Ben Cardilli — Montréal’s Consistent Top 5 (He’ll Tell You)

A JFL Originals alum and three-time Cult MTL Top 5 Comic. If you’re not laughing, statistically, Montréal disagrees with you.

Pino Pirillo — East-End Heat

Pino brings peak Italian-Montrealer energy, riffing on growing up Italian, carrying a few extra pounds, and surviving marriage to a French-Canadian wife who still doesn’t understand his family… or his portions.

🎸 MUSICAL LINEUP

Charles V. Rox Vaccaro

Montreal singer-songwriter, founding member of LIPSTIK (yes, that one), and three-time Hollywood music award nominee. The only performer on this lineup with legitimate credentials.

Durty Sumthin’

Montréal’s most proudly overrated rock cover band. Expect classic rock, 80s hair metal, grunge, 2000s bangers, and at least one “why that song?” moment. Love them or hate them, you’re stuck with them...they produced the show.

❤️ THE CAUSE

PKD Foundation of Canada

Dedicated to finding better treatments and improving quality of life, the PKD Foundation of Canada supports everyone affected by polycystic kidney disease. Come laugh, rock out, and help fund research — it’s the only part of the night that’s actually wholesome.
