The Mighty Boosh v. Adult Swim

One of the best British comedy tips I got from my good friend and resident expert on the subject Ty Bliss was a surreal little series called The Mighty Boosh. Mixing the odd couple interplay of Julian Barrett and Noel Fielding with absurd, dada fantasy plots and whimsical musical interviews, their BBC radio show was a unique pleasure. They are up to series 3 on the television show that was spawned from that, which I have yet to fully experience. This should be remedied this year as they will premiere on the Adult Swim line-up, so stoners and insomniacs alike will have the pleasure of this cult gem from across the pond.

The Return of Brendan Kennedy

I didn't notice he was gone, but here's my good friend and Beicide stalwart (and inventor of that mucked up way to spell "Bayside") Brendan Kennedy flexing his stand-up muscles.

I just like this guy. Anybody know what he's up to?

A Cruel Game I Play With Myself And Always Lose

From time to time, I like to compare my time in Tallahassee, FL and Norfolk, VA and make them battle. Norfolk forged me and then hosted my heroic battle back into independent adulthood. Tally hosted my emoest character builders and my halycon days of self-destructive subsidized adulthood. It all gets emotionally mixed up and then I have to turn outside for comparison. Take Eugene Mirman. He's played both Norfolk and Tally, and yet the closest he's coming on his upcoming tour is DC. Yet he's playing Tallahassee, at the damn school, too. Come on, Norfolk, we can do better! What happened, Relative Boot kids, bring me Eugene Mirman! You don't even have to invite me to bomb beforehand, I just want to watch.

Tonight: Regi Elliot at Cozzy's.

A nice thing about dabbling comedy is having the chance to befriend some of the funniest cats in the area. It has been a pleasure over the last few years to see Regi Elliot blossom into a comedic beast. Tonight see this hydra of haha hosting the humor at Cozzy's. Uproarious hilarity starts at 9. Cheers.
