Live Comedy L.A.

Apparently, stand-up comedy is back with a vengeance on Tuesday night’s in Los Angeles. Here’s a quick and dirty for you because it’s late you need to make decisions because you have a date in 30 minutes and you have no idea what you’re doing.

8pm: Canoga Park Bowl
The Dirty: This show is put on by Dante from Last Comic Standing…it’s for mostly up and comers…but if you want free and low key…it’s not bad. Don’t expect much though…go in with LOW, LOW, LOW exectations.

8:30: Red Rock - Ballgame’s Laugh Lounge
The Dirty: Matty Ballgame puts on the best room in the city. No cover…no drink min. and the best comics in town. Chris Franjola is in the house tonight…I’ll be there.

10pm: Laugh Factory - Jay Davis’ Life of the Party
The Dirty: Looks like Jay is bringing in Dane Cook for tonight festivities…and probably a few other rock star comedians. Get there EARLY..like EEEEARLY…and get on Jay’s list on Myspace.

For get expensive dinners…forget night clubs…forget bars…it’s all about stand-up comedy tonight people. I’ll let you know how Red Rock was tomorrow.

Yeah…looks like L.A. has a comedy festival. This is the second time they have done this within the year. I didn’t make it last time…and I’m not so much into the musical comedy stuff…but there are a bunch of stand-up comedy shows to check out for like $12. Looks like a couple of the folks from Last Comic Standing will be there…Dante and Debra DiGiovanni. Plus Shang…who gets a lot of pub…but I haven’t seen him.

I have seen Sarah Colonna and I really like her…she performs on the 23rd and the 26th. The great thing about a festival like this is that you might discover the next great comedian.

Anyway…check out all the details at L.A. Comedy Fest.
