John Caparulo just hit big screens nationwide in Vince’s Vaughn’s Wild West Comedy Show…and now is a great chance to see him perform LIVE stand-up comedy in Los Angeles…for FREE. Jump on the Improv Website and use the PROMO CODE: FUN to get 4 FREE tickets to a show this weekend that he is headlining. Here are your options:

Friday, February 29 @ 8pm
Saturday, March 1 @ 8 or 10pm

He is terrific in the movie…but you will truly appreciate is rapid fire humor in person without the editing. John has a great story btw…

John grew up in the Ohio Valley, but it wasn’t long before his dreams would take him out west. After he graduated from Kent State University he headed to Hollywood. Upon his arrival in the big city, John got a job as a doorman at the world-famous Comedy Store on Sunset Boulevard. It was there that he honed his skills amongst some of the most prolific comics in the business, such as Eddie Griffin, Joe Rogan, and Andrew Dice Clay. All the hard work started to pay off as the Hollywood industry began to take notice. John was signed by top-level representation. He then made his national television debut on “The Late Late Show with Craig Kilborn” and gave a memorable performance. Appearances soon followed on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” and The Game Show Network’s “Funny Money.” In 2003 John performed at the “Just For Laughs” comedy festival in Montreal and received an overwhelming response from industry attendees.

If you were thinking about heading to a movie Friday or Saturday night, skip it…do you really need to spend $15/ticket at the ArcLight or the Grove on “Jumper” when you have those loans to payoff.

Bill Burr is definitely one of the top comedians out there…and now that he has moved to Los Angeles to do stand-up comedy (instead of NY)…we are lucky to get to see him quite frequently at places like the Hollywood Improv. He has a joke about the exploding population that had me screaming like a 12-year old girl…let’s hope he tells it tonight or tomorrow. Take a look at this VideoShot and check the details below on how to get FREE tickets to see him this weekend.

Click Here to go to the Improv website…pick a show…and purchase tickets.
Upon check out…input PROMO CODE: BIL (yes…one “L”)…and create an account. There will be a $3 service charge for each ticket…which is actually $0.50 more than before…but still a solid price to see Bill Burr.  You can get up to 4 tickets.  If this doesn’t work…call the Improv and give them the code over the phone…that usually works also.  My suggestion…get there early and have the tortilla soup and the spicy chicken fingers…then you’ll get the reserved seats.  But that’s just how I do it.

Did you know BJ Novak from The Office is a stand-up comedian? He plays “Ryan”…the MBA student now at corporate. I haven’t seen him yet…but I’m going tonight. The Hollywood Improv has a promo code for free tix. Go to their website and enter FUNNY when you buy the tickets. They say it’s free…but it’s actually $2.50…whatever. Check it out…I’ll be there with my girlfriend.

UPDATE: JUST CALLED THE IMPROV - They are sold out for the 8pm show tonight. Not sure if they will accept the code for 10pm tomorrow…but try. He’s there 10pm tonight and 8pm and 10pm tomorrow.

P.S. In the spirit of self-cross promotion (I think I just made that term up), my run as President of Shelf Shark is coming to end…so I’m in the market for a new job. If you, a friend, a colleague, etc. needs a business savvy, revenue generating, creative character…let me know. On here I say I don’t know anything about anything…but I may know a few things about somethings. I do have other experiences and qualifications besides this blog…and inventing phrases like “self-cross promotion”…check them out:
Thanks!
