Hey there, kids. I've been making the rounds with the open mics around town lately in order to prepare for Thursday's show. I went to the Joke Joint in Bloomington and did about 5 minutes worth of material. The owner of the club, Ken Reed, agreed to let me emcee on Saturday night for their two shows. Matt Fugate is headlining and Bill Young is featuring. There'll be two shows, 7:30 and 10:00. I would do Friday night too, but I'm going to see David Spade up in Hinckley that night and there's no way I'm skipping that in order to emcee for a show I'm not getting paid for. I'm not getting any cash because a.) the Joke Joint doesn't have the funds yet, they're still pretty new and b.) it's against the Funniest Person in the Twin Cities Contest rules to get paid. Also, I need the experience in case I work my way up to ACME level emceeing. It should be fun if not humbling.
Here's the info:
Saturday June 23rd
7:30pm and 10:00pm
the Joke Joint Comedy Club
2300 American Blvd
Bloomington, MN
I have no idea how much it costs, but I think it's relatively cheap. The Joke Joint is located in the old Thunderbird Hotel which is now a Ramada Inn across the street from the Mall of America.
Come see me do stuff!
