do you have tickets?? I would've gone, but I already had plans to do something a lot less fun. $45 bucks each, great price to see two top comedians.

Todd Glass would better at Helium, since crowd work is one of his specialties. I'd come up for it, since I've never been to Helium, but he'll be down here in DC doing a podcast taping anyway.

Yeah, I'm excited. Don't know much about Glass outside of that Maron podcast

Speaking of crowd work....Todd Barry is bringing two shows of it to something called Urban Saloon on Sunday.

looks like the later show isn't. if they're still available on Friday, I'm there

I love this
A Todd Barry show consists of two things: amazing jokes and amazing crowd work. On this tour he's not doing the amazing jokes. That's right, an entire show of riffing and bantering with the audience. Could be good!

Wow, I may check this out. I've always wanted to try stand-up, and if I did, my act would be just like that, because I'm horrible at joke-telling.

If you like crowd work, check out Jimmy Pardo's album Pompous Clown. That's all it is. He's great at it.
