Charlie Sheen's "Torpedo of Truth" turned out to be a real bomb, fans said.
The self-proclaimed Messiah of Malibu tried to bring his "winning!" ways to the Big Apple last night, with a stop on his national stage show tour at Radio City Music Hall. But a lot of fans said he wound up looking more like a big loser.
Sheen's act lasted only about two-thirds of the promised 90 minutes before he left the stage to a chorus of boos.
"He didn't provide entertainment, no bang for the buck. These people are p- - -ed," said Rockland County's Richard Alexander, 50, of the capacity crowd.
"I've had better conversations with crackheads in the Tombs," offered Daniel Singh, 30, of Queens following the show.
Sheen lost the crowd after telling rambling stories about his life that were long on profanity, but short on amusement. He even got booed when he said he no longer uses drugs.
Sheen is scheduled to be back at Radio City for another show tomorrow at 8 p.m.
After last night's disaster, The Post asked Sheen's publicist Larry Solters if the "tiger blood"-filled actor plans to go on with the show.
"Why not?" he said.

How are Charlies tour t-shirt sales going?
Certain to be collectors items !
Hey, Sheen should put that in the show!
obama’s crib, namely chicago, was the only place that liked chuckie sheen’s show.
CBS should be concerned, their product is declining in value.
If it were possible, some people would pay to see a train wreck just so they could say they were there.
And some people have too much money (or credit cards) for their own good.
It’s the Pet rock theory of marketing: The public will buy absolutely anything if you promote it enough and through a different point of view. “No, it’s not a rock, it’s a pet” It’s PT Barnum. “No, it’ not a crackhead, it’s this really cool TV guy”...Then they go see it, and WOW..Guess what? We just paid $100 bucks to see a crackhead!

What scares me is that the morons that pay money to see this loser also get to vote. If the people of this country had to take an IQ test and score at a minimum 60 to be able to vote THE DEMOCRATS WOULD NEVER VOTE AGAIN.
hey Charlie....I got your torpedo of truth right here....
All we need to do is look at who’s president to confirm the intelligence of the average voter.
But but but they LOVED him in Chicago!
Isn’t that the most important venue in the world?
And too little sense.
Charlie Sheen is a blithering genius. He gets a bunch of saps to pay him a ton of money for his show in Detroit and he supposedly “bombs” and now a new set of saps fills another venue to listen to him “bomb” there too. I have to respect Mr. Sheen for being able to exploit the idiocy of the general public, well past his 15 minutes, and laugh all the way to the bank in the process.
sheen should go on the road a lot more, but take obammma with him. It could be the new adventures of Abbott and Costello
The idiots that paid to see this loser were attending Obama speeches with their arms outstretched mumbling “hope, change” 2-1/2 years ago. “Bread and circuses” chumps.
This says much towards why he bought a ticket in the first place.
IMHO, NYC authorities could have justified buying up all the tickets to help keep the homeless off the street...if the homeless didn't mind being around someone like sheen.
I can't even imagine what his "show" is supposed to be about........From what I'm picking up it's just ramblings of a stoned out lunatic.......
Reminds me of the traveling show in Huckleberry Finn.
