Charlie Sheen's first show bombs

Charlie Sheen on stage in Detroit (4/2)

Charlie Sheen kicked off his "Violent Torpedo of Truth" tour Saturday night in Detroit, and I don't to want spoil the surprise about how he did, but let's just say it's a good thing he didn't hand out tomatoes before the show. From TMZ:

According to multiple people inside the Fox Theatre ... the majority of the audience heckled not only Charlie, but his buddy Simon Rex, who came out and started rapping. At one point, Sheen tried to deflect the angry crowd by pointing out that he had his own app ... and they didn't (see video above).

That went on for about 30 minutes ... and the crowd was initially cheering for Charlie. He even sent out a twitpic of the enthusiastic audience

... they played the new track, "Winning" ... which Snoop Dogg recorded for Charlie. We're told that got the crowd fired up ... but when neither Snoop nor Charlie came out on stage they started booing again.

At that point most of the crowd started walking out -- and the house lights were turned on. We're told Charlie did come back on stage briefly and invited the people who stayed to move up closer to the stage ... but then he started complaining about his audio and walked off the stage.

Ouch. Who would have thought that an egomaniacal drug addict couldn't pull off an entertaining live show that he only had about two weeks to prepare for? The next thing you're gonna tell me is that there isn't a Santa Claus. Well then who ate the cookies and milk I left out? WHO THE FUCK ATE THE COOKIES AND MILK?

Warlocks are so kool, and dragon blood is even better. Charlie is my hero, I wish I was just like him. He gets all the beautiful chicks and respect from everyone.

It's good to see Charlie is still winning.

WEll it seems that they appreciate war heros and ex-Navy SEALs a lot more in Chicago. The Chi-Town crowd loved him. Detriot is a loser city anyway, it is almost a ghost town. Chi-Town is boomig, bustling and growing.

Charlie is a blow hard, lunatic, boring, douche. Get a job loser. His drug withdrawl is coming to an end and now hes got nothing. No talent. No sense of humor. Thats why he did drugs. So, all of you that praise the word salad spewing, mentally ill,loser- look at yourselves. What kind of person are you to buy the ticket to see someone famous tormented by his problems, live on stage. Its just sick.

Hey Charlie, you know those people who are called writers?

They were the ones who made you funny and popular on TV.

Try hiring a few because your crack induced rants are not cutting it.
