The Goddamn Comedy Jam, which you might know in its adapted for television version The Comedy Jam, is doing another round of their half stand-up/storytelling, half rock show at The Roxy in West Hollywood on 9/11.
Probably like us, you’re already wondering what someone like Kevin Nealon might sing or do. You’ll have to go and see for yourself.
Tickets probably won’t be around for much longer. Get them while you can here.
Maria Bamford, Dana Gould, Tim Meadows, Morgan Murphy, Todd Barry, The Goddamn Comedy Jam, Billy Wayne Davis, Jenny Zigrino, Jackie Kashian, Nick Thune, Joe DeRosa, James Adomian, Baron Vaughn, Tim Dillon, and Sabrina Jalees are just a few of the names scheduled to perform at the 2nd Come and Take It Comedy Festival in Houston, TX.
The festivities are set to go down from Thursday, November 17th-Sunday, November 20th. For all of that comedy, you only have to drop $79 for a weekend pass or $35 for a single day pass. That’s a pretty good deal considering the treasure trove of comedians on the bill. A VIP pass is only $129 as well.
If you’re in Texas or have to go back to Texas for Thanksgiving, definitely consider going to Come and Take it.

8 episodes are set to air in 2017.
From a monthly show at a black box theater to a TV special Josh Adam Meyers and The Comedy Jam Band have reached new heights by getting a series order from Comedy Central.
They had to drop the “Goddamn” from the name, but that shouldn’t hold back from how much of a raucous party that Meyers and company will throw. If getting Coolio to join Pete Davidson on stage for Gangsta’s Paradise was just the start, imagine what they’ll do next.
The Goddamn Comedy Jam Special Premieres Tonight
Tune in at 11:30PM on Comedy Central.
Pete Davidson, Natasha Leggero, Jim Jefferies, Jay Pharoah, Adam DeVine, Josh Adam Meyers, and his band Elemenopy will dish out jokes and then rock the mic with a song of their choosing.
Don’t worry, you should have time to watch both the MTV VMAs and then immediately after.
The Goddamn Comedy Jam special is set to make it live on Comedy Central on Sunday, August 28th at 11:30PM.
If you’re skeptical, just watch Pete Davidson ramp up to rapping his heart out to Gangsta’s Paradise (with a little help from a surprise guest) and giving zero f’s about wearing shorts on stage.
As part of San Francisco’s big annual music and arts festival to do, Outside Lands, they always have a pretty sizable line-up of comedy reserved for the Barbary portion of the festival.
This year, as you can see above, is no different as it’s co-curated by SF Sketchfest.
If you’re on board, get your tickets here.
They’ll also have Adam Devine and Jay Pharoah.
The hit show The Goddamn Comedy Jam is getting an hour special on Comedy Central. The names above will do stand-up and then belt out a song of their own along with host/ringleader to the jam, Josh Adam Meyers, at the taping that’s happening on Tuesday, June 21st.
You can try and get on the waitlist for the show here.
