Radio City Saturday night marked Craig Ferguson‘s return to New York City, to preform on one of the country’s greatest stages, Radio City Music Hall (photo by @Colleen_Byrne). After selling out two shows at Carnegie Hall in 2010, it was time for him to play the even larger venue, with 6200 fans filling the seats. Josh Robert Thompson opened with a 20-mintue set, then the crowd welcomed Craig for a night of plenty of laughs (and as usual, only one joke). Before the show, Craig tweeted:

Big show in NYC tonight. I get to do high kicks to a full house at Radio City. #hopemypantsdontrip #balls #Iwillalsotellajoke

Late Late Show Producer Michael Naidus was in the crowd, tweeting (photo by @Colleen_Byrne):

A few minutes later, he added (photo by @SecretNakedHobo):

@CraigyFerg and the RoBotQuettes hit the stage in New York. #itsagreatdayforamerica
