Sunday nights at Grumpy's in Coon Rapids, there's free comedy. I haven't gone up there yet, but I'm strongly considering it. The reason I'm hesitant is because A.) there's really no "stage" to speak of - it's a clearing to the side of the bar - the comedian is literally face to face with the audience. B.) it's in Coon Rapids and they allow smoking there which isn't a huge deal, but it's annoying enough to prevent me from going and C.) I work at 8am tomorrow and the show starts at 10pm. A buddy of mine works in the prison up there and she sees a lot of "former clients" at the bar which is also a bit of a deterrent.
The perks, on the other hand, are that A.) it's another place to do comedy and brush up on my act, B.) all performers get a free drink and since Sunday nighs are 2 for 1s, they get 2 free drinks (sweet) and C.) it's a chance to catch up with other comedians and have one last hurrah for the weekend before a long and arduous week of school, work and comedy - wait, scratch that last one.
So here's a sketch from the hilarious comedy troupe The Label which includes but is not limited to Tommy Ryman, Bill Young, Eric Nigg, Mitch Hansen, Amber Preston and Matt Olson. This one's called "I Have a Girlfriend" - tell me what you think!
