Well, last night turned out to be a great experience. Casner, Lopez, and myself were booked to perform in a wedding out in Hood River for 2 people that none of us knew. They knew us though, they had seen us a bunch and decided to have a comedy show after party.
It was out in the middle of nowhere, down a long dirt road with tiny signs. We missed their driveway the first time and ended up at the end of the road where we were basically attacked by 2 giant black dogs. These dogs were huge, they were barking non stop and running in front of my car and biting at the bumper while we tried to turn around and drive away. It took us 10 minutes just to drive 1 mile cause these dogs would not stop being assholes.
Anyways, we found the house...a super super nice million dollar mansion with mater fountains built into the walls! Water fountains! Also worth noting, a ping pong table, fooseball, giant floor to ceiling windows looking out over some private vineyard and they fed us amazing ribs before and after the show. They even had a tent set up just to smoke weed in with a jar full of joints....classy stuff.
Everyone there was around late 20s to early 50s and they sincerely enjoyed the show. They were all drunk as fuck and there was def some crowd work done by everyone. I went up last and did 20ish minutes to a crowd of about 40 very happy people. A lot of great riffing and talking shit to be had. Afterwards we hung out and ate more, played games, smoked, and then drove back to Portland.
One of the best parts of the night was being in the middle of nowhere the night sky if full of stars. You can see so much/little of our universe when you get away from the city. Breathtaking.
