Forgive the pun in the title…it’s ridiculous. But it’s true. Last night, Duncan Trussell put on Comedy is Dead 7 in the Masonic Lodge at the Hollywood Forever cemetery in front of more than 200 people. The show was so great.
They kicked things off with a few short videos. My favorite being this music video from Major Lazer’s hit single Pon De Floor directed by Eric Wareheim. It’s awesome.
Ron Lynch hosted the show. He was excellent. He has this dead pan style that is really smooth and awkward at the same time. Its perfect. His magic bit was great. He didn’t actually do any magic. Just made fun of doing magic. Hilarious.
The line-up included Brent Weinbach, Duncan Trussell, Natasha Leggero, Steve Agee, Matt Braunger, and Aziz Ansari. I’m actually forgetting one comedian.
Brent Weinbach is probably one of the top 5 most talented people I’ve seen perform. He’s super intelligent. And Matt Braunger brought the house down. His Taco Bell bit is great.
I also really enjoyed watching Aziz battle through new material. It’s so cool watching a great comedian do brand new stuff. At least if you’re a comedy nerd like me.
Overall it was an excellent show and I’m really looking forward to going again. And I’m really looking forward to going to see more Ron Lynch hosted events.
