The prospect of Kids in the Hall’s Kevin McDonald doing a new anything is definitely worth your time, attention, and money. The more elevated prospect of him doing a full on rock opera that’s based on “totally true events” should make it somehow more imperative for you to buy tickets and go to The Bell House on Thurs. Aug. 31st at 7PM.

Come this August, neither is just a fabricated scenario. Kevin McDonald and @ThisMyShowPresents will be premiering Kevin McDonald Superstar (A Rock Opera) at Brooklyn’s Bell House that’s all sourced from the life and times of Kevin McDonald. Joining him will be a treasure trove of NYC comedy including KITH’s Dave Foley, Dave Hill, Julie Klausner, Kevin McDonald, Jean Grae, and John Wlaysweski.

We’re pretty sure this is going to sell out way in advance, so go get your tickets for $30.57 a pop here right now.

Pick of the Day: Puddles Pity Party w/Dave Hill (in LA) 4/7

dave hill, el rey, los angeles comedy, puddles pity party, sad clown

When encountering Puddles Pity Party for the first time, the roller coaster of emotions that ensues is probably unlike anything you’ve seen or felt before. There is a 7 foot tall, forlorn clown that emerges from somewhere in a way that is charmingly self-deprecating and does nothing whatsoever to tip what’s going to happen with Puddles Pity Party and his amazing voice.

Also, that’s still just part of the ride, no matter what you’ve seen on America’s Got Talent or otherwise. You have to see it for yourself and get brought into the truly otherworldly delights of Puddles and LA folks will get that chance come next week on Thurs. Apr. 7th at 9PM PT at the El Rey. Also, musical comedy dynamo and raconteur Dave Hill will be joining in with Puddles Pity Party giving you even less of the non-existent excuse to go get tickets right now.

Far be it from us to point out a live comedy show with just mostly men on the line-up on International Women’s Day and during Women’s History Month. That said, if the renowned and celebrated men on said line-up were donating their time to raise money for abortion access and reproductive rights via the Lizz Winstead (co-creator of The Daily Show) org Abortion Access Front and had the fantastic Joyelle Nicole Johnson hosting the whole shin dig, that is a different story.

It’s actually the story of the upcoming comedy charity benefit event Bro V. Wade: Funny Dudes. Raising Cash. For Abortion set for Sun. May 22nd at The Bell House in Brooklyn at 7:30PM ET. The likes of David Cross, Dave Hill, Jon Glaser, John Fugelsang, Josh Gondelman, and Dean Obeidallah are billed and we wouldn’t be surprised if there were more special guests TBA.

FYI: Founded in 2015, Abortion Access Front is a team of comedians, writers and producers that uses humor to destigmatize abortion and expose the extremist anti-choice forces working to destroy access to reproductive rights in all 50 states.

Tickets are $40 and, if you’re in and around NYC, you need to get them here.

SF Sketchfest Announces Virtual “Festpocalypse” Fundraiser This Coming January

OK, so there won’t be an in-person SF Sketchfest come this January. You already knew that, right?

Just because that’s the case, doesn’t mean that SF Sketchfest, one of the world’s biggest comedy festivals, won’t forego doing anything. In fact, they’ve got something pretty big on deck, virtually of course, called Festpocalypse. It will be a special, massive one night only event that will raise money to keep SF Sketchfest alive and well and going after all of the COVID-19 pandemic is finished.

How massive is it? Well, take a gander at who they have slated for Festpocalypse:

The Kids in the Hall, The State, Mr. Show’s David Cross & Bob Odenkirk, The Upright Citizens Brigade, Parv & Pudi with Parvesh Cheena and Danny Pudi, plus “Saturday Night Live” alumni Fred Armisen, Dana Carvey, Rachel Dratch, Janeane Garofalo, Tim Meadows, Laraine Newman, Sasheer Zamata and original writer Alan Zweibel. Sketch troupes Kasper Hauser, The Latino Comedy Project, White Women and Australia’s Netflix sensations Aunty Donna appear as well.

Festpocalypse also features top stand-up comics and writers including Brits Eddie Izzard and Noel Fielding, plus Margaret Cho, Jo Firestone, Ron Funches, Chris Gethard, Dave Hill, Joel Kim Booster, Bobcat Goldthwait, Emily V. Gordon, Dana Gould, Eugene Mirman, Arden Myrin, Aparna Nancherla, Kumail Nanjiani, Patton Oswalt, Kevin Pollak, Greg Proops, Jonah Ray, Paul F. Tompkins, Reggie Watts and more. Also, live short film riffing with RiffTrax featuring “Mystery Science Theater 3000” alumni, fake Uptown Showdown debates, a visit with Triumph the Insult Comic Dog and “Weird Al” Yankovic, a game show hosted by Jimmy Pardo, movie games hosted by Doug Benson, swift justice from Judge John Hodgman and Bailiff Jesse Thorn, and a rare reunion of The Slipnutz members Andy Blitz, Jon Glaser and Brian Stack.

Film and television stars slated for appearances include Alan Arkin, Paget Brewster, Chris Elliott, Elliott Gould, Christopher Guest, Jon Hamm, John Michael Higgins, Michael Hitchcock, Bill Irwin, Jane Lynch, Oscar Nuñez, Andrea Savage, and Aisha Tyler, as well as The Tenderloins, creators of the hit show “Impractical Jokers.” Cult cinema aficionado and drag superstar Peaches Christ will take a look back at the festival’s past film celebrations.

The show also features improv by Groundlings alumni The Black Version, the esteemed Improvised Shakespeare Company and festival regulars Theme Park. Musical performances will include Bill Frisell, Jean Grae, Rhett Miller, The Milk Carton Kids, Eliza Skinner, Epic Lloyd, Jonathan Coulton, Paul and Storm, and John Roderick.

How will they fit that much show into one night? We’re not really sure, but you best clear out Sat. Jan. 30th so you can watch, enjoy, and support SF Sketchfest via Festpocalypse starting at 5PM PT/8PM ET so you can pack in all of what’s listed above (i.e. all the live comedy you could possibly want from SF Sketchfest from the comfort of your own quarantine).

Tickets start at $20, which is pretty swell price. If you can’t make it on Jan. 30th, you’ll be able to watch it through Feb. 1st. Go get your tickets at sfsketchfest.com right now.

Please Enjoy This Death Metal-Love(?) Song, Witch Taint’s “Ready 4 Lvv”

November 2, 2020

News

dave hill, death metal, parody, witch taint

If you need an oh so tiny break from the world, especially this election, COVID-19, climate change, the global reckoning with systemic oppression, might we suggest one of the wonderfully, ridiculously silly (and metal) things we’ve seen in awhile.

Half-death metal, half-tender love song, self-styled darkest lords of the darkest darkness that the darkness ever covered in darkness, Witch Taint (AKA “the most extremely extreme and Satanic Norwegian Black Metal band from Indiana”) have just released their latest single “Ready 4 Lvv” from their full length album Sons of Midwestern Darkness. It’s the perfect bleak interjection into a love song that only black metal masters like Witch Taint could dish out.

There is an accompanying music video for Ready 4 Lvv that further accentuates the romance/gloom here. We had a pretty big smile and laugh, the hardcore kind of course, while giving it a watch.

Oh, if you don’t know about Witch Taint, please familiarize yourself with the amazing and hilarious Black Metal Dialogues.

Pick of the Day: The Goddamn Dave Hill Show (Weekly Starting 5/25)

May 22, 2020

News

dave hill, live stream, the goddamn dave hill show

The latest addition to the live stream comedy fray will be a live-stream version of The Goddamn Dave Hill Show. Dave Hill’s radio show put Hill in the driver’s seat as a full fledged live on-air program, complete with live calls, guests, etc. It’s the sort of format that lets Hill’s talents shine (his endless charisma, wildly silly wit, and his musical prowess). If you loved Hill’s recently released The Pride of Cleveland, you’re for quite a weekly treat with this announcement.

Starting on Memorial Day, The Goddamn Dave Hill Show will make a return, albeit a virtual one via Facebook and Twitch, and going live every Monday at 6PM PT/9PM ET. His first guest will be Monster Magnet’s Dave Wyndorf and it looks like Dave will keep this going as we’re all still prohibited, with very good reason, from gathering in such dark, intimate places where one would normally watch Dave do his “goddamn thing” in person.

Dave Hill’s “The Pride of Cleveland” Is a Pretty Perfect Blend Stand-Up Comedy and Dave Shredding on Guitar

April 29, 2020

News

comedy album, dave hill, musical comedy, stand up comedy, storytelling

Dave Hill truly is a renaissance man (even dressing as classy as a renaissance man should). Thus, his comedy has always presented a plethora humorous riches blending his gifts in being a stand-up comedian, a raconteur, a poet, and having killer chops when it comes to playing a guitar.

The Pride of Cleveland, Dave’s brand new album marvelously showcases how Hill orchestrates an entire comedic experience with seamlessly weaving between music, riffing, stories, bits, jokes, asides. His playful, animated charisma really shines in the hour and is the key ingredient in bringing every corner of Dave’s comedy together for this hour. Even when he makes fun of his band while jamming with them or is self-deprecating while effortlessly pulling off a hot lick on his ax during a story about opening for Snoop Dogg or dives into abjectly silly geographically specific pick-up lines, Dave’s jolly persona remains. Truly, we were guffawing the whole way through.

Dave Hill’s The Pride of Cleveland is out now from 800 Pound Gorilla Records. You can and very, very much should pick up the album here.

Over a decade ago, Dave Hill initiated one of the funniest exchanges ever in trying to start a Norwegian Black Metal band with a kid from Indiana. The conversations became known as The Black Metal Dialogues.

All these years later, Dave and actual bandmate Phil Costello are going to do The Black Metal Dialogues Live! next month at The Viper Room on the Sunset Strip.

Even if you’re not a metal head, we’re pretty sure you’ll enjoy “the vagina monologues of black metal”.

The Comedy Central web series version of Ian Abramson’s brilliant show 7 Minutes in Purgatory, where comics do a set while separated from a live audience and can’t hear their laughter while that audience can watch remotely, is finally here.

With Comedy Central footing the bill, Ian got a truck outside of the venue to sequester the performers away from the audience so there is absolutely no way that the comedians can hear the audience (on top of noise cancelling ear protection).

Watch what happens when you stick Nick Vatterott…

…host Ian Abramson…

…Dave Hill…

…musician and fun extraordinaire Dan Deacon…

…and sketch group Wham City get stuck in the back of a truck and try to do comedy.

It’s about time this happened.

One of the many new, exciting things that are happening at NBC’s comedy streaming service, Seeso, is a thing called The Comedy Show Show, which will feature plenty of different formats of comedy shows that have grown over the last few years.

Bryan Cook’s Competitive Erotic Fan Fiction is a prime example of such a format with comedians writing erotic fiction of a pop culture subject of their choice or by random. Having toured the country and becoming a hit podcast, it’s only logical that it would get to be featured in a series at some point.

So, a taping for Seeso’s Comedy Show Show will take place at the Competitive Erotic Fan Fiction’s current home, The Virgil, on Sunday, April 17th at 8PM (doors are at 7:30PM).

The stellar line-up features past winners including such notable comedians as:

Moshe Kasher (Netflix special “Live in Oakland”)
Eliza Skinner (@Midnight, writer ‘The Late Late Show’)
Ben Roy (Star/Co-creator ‘Those Who Can’t’ on TruTv)
Dave Hill (Author, ‘Tasteful Nudes,’ Host ‘The God Damn Dave Hill Show’ on WFMU)
Ian Karmel (Conan, writer ‘The Late Late Show’)
Guy Branum (writer, ‘Another Period,’ ‘The Mindy Project’)
Andrés du Bouchet (Writer/performer on Conan)
Jackie Kashian (Conan, album ‘This Will Make An Excellent Horcrux’)
Solomon Georgio (Conan, Viceland)

The taping is free to attend, which should give you more incentive than you already have to go to this.
