Comedy, Webcams and Controversy

Weezy & The Swish

Have you ever heard someone complain about how people say, “I could care less,” when what they really mean is that they couldn’t care less? I would like to shed some light on this growing controversy. “I could care less,” was most likely originally intended as sarcasm.

What I’m trying to say is that I haven’t blogged for awhile and my guess is that you could care less.

Comedy Nights


Thursday at Comedy Nights, our headliner was Sam Tripoli. He rocked it hard and nasty and we were packed but we fought for it. The establishment across the street had installed a go-go dance cage out on the sidewalk with two girls inside, grinding one another. I take it as a compliment because our stage is in the window and our comedians can pull some attention. This was the club across the street returning fire. I would like to see that move and raise them two fat comics dancing in a cage. Please enjoy some highlights from Comedy Nights with Sam Tripoli...

Ari David and John Roy

Last week, on the podcast, we welcomed Sam Tripoli and this week John Roy. Both were excellent. Additionally, Ian Broyles installed a web cam in the studio and listeners have been saving captures such as this.



We may have to ask them to stop. Please enjoy some behind the scenes highlights from Weezy & The Swish...



Controversy

Fini Goodman and I talk a little too much because we recently conceptualized something we’re calling “Mark Foley IM Theatre.” It’s a dramatic reading of Mark Foley’s illicitly disturbing IM’s with a former Congressional Page. After filming this and posting it, I feel a deep sense of shame. Whether it stays or goes is going to be up to you. Keep in mind as you watch… I work with children. If this is more wrong than funny, I will yank it down so fast it will make large things spin. WARNING: NOT FOR CHILDREN!





Aaron’s Bar Mitzvah

My cousin Aaron will celebrate his Bar Mitzvah on November 11th. (My birthday… thanks, Kid I have often dreamed of spending my birthday in temple) Together, our band, Spitvalve will play live at the reception. The band is My cousin, Stephen, his son Aaron, their friend Dev and his son Austin, plus me. Here we are in rehearsal this week.





Youngbloods of Comedy

The YoungBloods enjoyed a pretty decent turnout at Hallenbeck’s on Saturday night. Our friend, Vance Sanders stopped by to host. Devon, Geoff, Tyler, Adrian and Jake T. performed and you can catch some of it right here…




This last video is rather soothing and hypnotic. What I did is probably illegal but the result is quite pretty. Kids, don’t film and drive.

Have a spectacular week!
