Long-Awaited Third/Second Blog

Awaited by whom, I've no idea. So I called this a third/second blog because I actually did write a second blog about a week and a half ago, but my computer lost it somehow. I am NOT going to try to recreate it. Here is a brief summary:

James Town went well. I loved the town and the show. Best bar crowd ever. Speed Racer is a fucking piece of shit. I believe the world to be a slightly worse place than it used to be because someone approved that script for shooting. Forgetting Sarah Marshal is a wonderfull movie. The Visitor is good as well. I want to see Fist Foot First. And I of course cannot wait for Dark Knight.

Ok. And now for blog #3:

Quaint Little Coffee Shop got into the Del Close Marathon! The Del Close Marathon is a 72-hour improv festival that happens every year in NYC! The Marathon is from August 8-10th and besides us, features the likes of Amy Poehler, Seth Myers, Horatio Sans, Andy Daly, Chris Gethard, Derrick Comedy, and lots of other funny mother-fuckers. OUR show will take place on August 9th at 3:30PM at the Hudson Guild Theatre. It would be a fun show for you to come to see. Good space. Good Evironment. Entrance fee is $20, but this grants you admission to shows for the entire 72 hours! So, that's pretty cool.

Getting into the marathon was a big deal for us. Between that, Austin, starting 301 with Charlie Todd, and doing shows around Jersey, I'm gonna get to do a lot of cool improv and comedy stuff this summer.

I've also been writing as much as I can. I've written a couple of essays, all in working progress. I've been reading one as part of my stand-up act. And another I am considering submitting to McSweeney's magazine.

Ok that's all for now, cause I'm trying to get work done. Peace.
