 The 15th annual Comics Come Home charity show is back this weekend in Boston. It takes place Saturday at Agganis Arena and is put on to benefit the Cam Neely Foundation for Cancer Care and The Neely Cancer Fund.
Comedian Denis Leary has been a part of it since the very beginning. "I think the first year it was Cam’s idea to do one big event to publicize the foundation. In the beginning, we were trying to raise money to build the Neely House, but we didn’t think about it long-term. We just took it year by year. We’d say, 'Hey, man, what do you think about next year?' And people would be, like, 'Yeah, man.' By the sixth or seventh year, we had the thing built."
Leary continued in discussing what it means to Cam Neely. "Cam’s not only a close friend of mine, he’s also big. But to tell you the truth, watching Cam’s best friend Michael J. Fox, and how he’s accepted his situation and used it to raise money, there’s a lot of inspiration there."
Jimmy Fallon, who's father was treated at Neely House, will also attend the event this year. Other guests include Bill Burr, Lenny Clarke, Adam Ferrara, Kenny Rogerson, and Tony V.
