Comedy Showcase Night at Cheers/Bull & Finch Pub TONIGHT! (Or I Use Too Many Ellipses)
Had so much fun last night at Johnny D's in Somerville for ONE MICROPHONE. Great crowd that came out for a quick, early show. It was much appreciated. I also got to meet two comedians from town that I didn't know, Liz Ridge and Danica Jayne, both very funny. Okay, Danica didn't actually speak to one another, per say, but we were both on the same show, laughed at each other's jokes, and now we're now Facebook friends now so I guess that's close enough... right? (Full disclosure, I don't send Facebook friend requests unless I'm forced to. I'm talking about you Suzi Berlin.)I was so happy I decided to enjoy a nice 2 piece chicken box purchased with jokes, actually I really don't get paid to do comedy, but if I did I would make just about enough to buy a chicken box... but not enough to also cover the tax. For all my Baltimore people, no it wasn't Royal Farms chicken, so it's just be a different type of diarrhea I'll have today. Washed that down with a nice conversation about upcoming Comic Book Movie news and spoilers, promotional whoring to my neighbors, then off to bed.I was shockingly awoken to the sound of the doorbell five minutes before my alarm went off at 3:40am to what turned out to be a Foodler delivery... the wrong address. I don't know who Kelly Robinson is, but you fucking ruined my day. Thanks. If there is one takeaway from this whole scenario it's this: "I should NOT be allowed to own a gun. Because if the question 'Have you ever answered the door with a implement intended for killing in your hand?' Is on the gun permit application, the speed to which I answer, "Yes" should be an automatic dismissal." Yes, I answered my front door at 3:42am this morning with a 4-cell mag (cop light) in my head ready to bash someone's head in. Not because he woke me but, because the only reason in my mind someone is at my door that early it's either to kill me or to be killed. Or a drunk at the wrong address. Or now a Foodler delivery to someone too stoned enough to update their own address. You know what, maybe I'm paranoid. Thanks Martin O'Malley.
I’m doing comedy with four funny people that I envy tonight at a place I grew up laughing at and dreaming about going to. Who and why am I envious of these people? Not only because they're funny but, because Kevin Harrington is a geek comedy Buddha. Don Zollo because of two words that will be never associated with me: ruggedly handsome. Kristin Seltman, because clearly she’s smarter than I am. And Terry Sachs, because he has trusts me much more than I do myself. I'll be doing a longer set than I've ever done before, it's gonna be a blast. If you're within vicinity of the Boston area come see all of us tell jokes and be funny tonight at The Original Cheers at The Bull and Finch pub.https://www.facebook.com/events/872025079504197
