While making his way back to the city has him excited, Dillon is feeling a good kind of pressure as he’s tasked with cranking The Wilbur’s volume to 11 - but to him, it means more than just getting back onstage as we continue exploring “the new normal.” I really care about Boston, and I also really like shellfish.” There are cities that I perform in that I don’t care about, and I don’t care about the people there or what they think about, but Boston is not that for me. So, I always want to make sure I’m bringing the best show I can, and be as funny as I can be. “I always feel honored when I’m there, because you just have to look back at the history of Boston comedy. “Boston is one of my favorite cities to do comedy in, and it’s one of the greatest comedy cities, period,” Dillon tells Vanyaland.
