Josh Fadem & Dicker Troy (Johnny Pemberton as a truck driver/DJ/wiseman with a modulated voice) is one of the funniest things going on in LA right now (you can catch them at the end of the month in LA at The Satellite).
So, if you’re in SF, Portland, Vancouver or Seattle in February, do not miss a show that’s equal parts whimsy, chaos, tomfoolery, alternate dimensions, slapstick, and jokes.
Dave Ross & Barbara Gray Going on Him & Her Tour Along West Coast
Going from here in LA all the way to Seattle, WA, the very funny Dave Ross and Barbara Gray are going out on tour along the West Coast for the first two weeks in August.
We highly suggest that you see any stop of this Him & Her Tour if you can and the Him & Her Tour would like you to know that Dave and Barbara are indeed two close friends that are not having sex.
IFC Opens Up a West Coast Office in Santa Monica, CA
You figure that Comedy Bang Bang, Maron, The Birthday Boys show produced by Bob Odenkirk, Will Ferrell’s “Spoils of Babylon”, and more are more or less based out in LA and this makes sense.
The comedy community in Los Angeles will surely be happy.
1) Yesterday marks the last day of Morgan Murphy’s (@morgan_murphy) stint on at Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and her gradual return to the West Coast. Be on the look out, but I’m sure you won’t have to look too hard because she’ll probably going up everywhere and still have that hair.
2) Take your star map, if you still have it, and go burn it. THEN, watch Bill Burr’s tour of Los Angeles. You still see most of the same stuff, but the jokes are actually done by a highly regarded, paid professional.
3) Check out the new trailer for the Comedy Central Pilot: Set List. Basically, “Whose Line is it Anyway?” for stand up comedy featuring Carlos Alazraqui, Eddie Pepitone, Laurie Kilmartin, Sean Green, Chris Fairbanks, and more!!!
4) The Comedy Bureau hasn’t determined who the Tip of the Hat is going to today, but assuredly, it is going to someone. I’m sure all of you are on the edge of you seats.
