But such an improvement was not enough as he faced the audience at the Big Apple during his first of the two shows in the city.
The 6,000-seats Radio City Music Hall in New York city was full when the show started Friday. The audience came in different attire and of mixed ages. Most of them represent the kinds of fans who follow Charlie Sheen on “Two and a Half Men” and therefore, the actor was in for a good show when he started for his first of two series in New York.
Sheen donned a New York Yankees jersey, complemented with a cap. He was again joined on stage by his partner interviewer, Joel Scoleri.
They talked about various issues starting out with hotels, stories about women, drugs and money made more colorful with his ‘F-bomb’ in practically almost all sentences he was able to structure in every one of them.
Though not surprisingly, Charlie began his 50-minute talk about a couple of incidents he had at New York hotels.
The first was about his stay at Manhattan’s Chelsea Hotel, recounting two things that happened the night in question.
"I had a dream that I invented Scotch tape. And I performed CPR on a supermodel in a heroin coma,” Sheen said of the incident. "She was in the coma, not me."
Then came his version of the story at his controversial night at another Manhattan Hotel, The Plaza. Sheen paid a $30,000 for the damages after reportedly trashing his suite ‘in a drug-induced frenzy’. The trouble came when his adult-entertainer date called for hotel security after his smashing hotel-suite windows and crushing other hotel facilities.
"The trouble all started," Sheen said, adding "when she followed me up to my room."
The actor continued, saying: "Maybe, I invited her. But it's my ... story."
His twin incidents at two big hotels in New York had prompted other hotels at the Big Apple to ban the actor for his live Torpedo of Truth tour.
A separate article by IBTimes discussed the reasons why the New York hotels were having second thoughts to accommodate him for his April tour, prompting to rent apartments instead for him and his entourage.

Then there came his talk about his career which earned him his biggest boo for the night, followed by the story about his family. The audience were very clear letting him know that they are not at all interested to hear about his stories but the ones on drugs and women.
They gave him loud cheers every time the audience got the chance to hear him making references to his famous tiger blood and Adonis DNA.
They also love hearing him talk about how ‘thousands of chicks and tons of cash’ have made him stick to his acting job.
The actor and his partner made a short break after forty-five minutes and returned with his two goddesses: former porn star, Rachel Oberlin, and actress, Natalie Kenley.
Then came his discussion of “Two and a Half Men”, repeating what he has said before in different cities: that he is hoping to get back on the show and made a strong emphasis that he did not leave the show but fired from it.
When it was time to call it a night, his partner then announced that the long night was to end responded to by an audience member, “That’s it?!”. The show ended with Sheen’s bucket list.
