The last 4 days have been a whirlwind of great shows with
great friends. I've met some amazing people from all around the country,
and get to work with them too! James Adomian, Sean Patton, Myq
Kaplan... So many All Stars here.
First show was a young guns best of Portland type showcase held at analog theater. I went up with some familiar faces and some out of towners from Seattle, in front of a a medium sized crowd. It was a Thursday, so I wasn't expecting a sold out show. It's a wonderful venue or too, giant green room, and nice large stage upstairs. The smaller but still very nice stage downstairs in the cafe. Great show.
Friday I was at the Hawthorne lounge primetime show with a bunch of people I have never gotten to work with before. And Ayggie Smith, he ended the show with with a closer that no one will ever forget. The man's a professional. Afterwards I headed over to host the tanker open mic for an hour. This place was absolutely packed, 100 plus people crammed in this tiny bar and just watching a rotation of amazing comics one after another, never ending... Truly an amazing spectacle!
Saturday I got the privilege of performing at the Doug Fir lounge on the midnight show. This venue is by far my favorite place. Everything's gotta ambient yellow glow to it, and looks like a log cabin...really chill. Also a packed crowd, 60 ish people love and everything that everyone was saying. Then I headed over to the after party at the Jupiter hotel, and ate mushrooms and watched Genesis on YouTube at 5 in the morning... Typical Saturday right?
Then Sunday, my last so, I was at the White Owl primetime show. Definitely the most sparsely attended show I was on that week, but still a good turnout. I had fun trying out some new jokes and shooting from the hip. I got to work with a Seattle comic named David Zoe Leon on that showcase as well, that guy is a riot.
