The Short of It:
1. (Comic) Book Club June '09 meeting THIS SUNDAY
2. REMEMBER: Stand-Up Comics Comedy Fest '09 THIS SATURDAY!
3. New This Wednesday
1. Sorry for the kind of short notice, although I have told most of
you in person anyway... this month's (Comic) Book Club is meeting THIS
SUNDAY, June 21 at the Lansing Baker's Square to discuss Gipi's Notes
For a War Story. We'll be there at 4:00 as usual, so read the book and
join us!
2. And while we're talking about cool stuff going on this weekend,
don't forget that this Saturday, June 20 brings us Stand-Up Comics
Comedy Fest 2009! We've got a huge evening of funny stuff lined up for
the distinguishing viewer, including a ton of stand-up acts (including
the best acts from the previous two years of shows!), sketch comedy
group the Talent (made up of alums from the comedy scene at the
University of Illinois), and sketch comedy group Big Dog Eat Child
headlining! I think there's a pretty good chance you've heard of Big
Dog Eat Child. Besides performing here a lot, they have kind of become
an internet sensation. If you don't believe me, go to YouTube and
search for "Toby Jones." You won't regret it. The comedy starts at
6:30 PM so be here!
