Me, Performing Stand-Up Comedy in New York City

bmfc1 Oct 10 2011 03:18 PM

As some of you know, I have a side-career performing stand-up comedy in the DC area: https://www.facebook.com/JeffHysenComedy I am happy to tell you that I have a show coming up in New York City. I will be performing at the Broadway Comedy Club, right in Times Square, on November 4 at 7 PM: https://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=279468858737293 As added incentive, two CPF'ers will be in attendance. Note that there's a $10 cover charge and a two drink minimum. I hope to see you there.

I think you're worth the $10 and two drinks :) (Seriously - looking forward to the show!)

If you can make it here, you can make it.. that's pretty cool. Congrats.

I'm gonna try and make this. Say something funny!

bmfc1 Oct 11 2011 08:46 AM Re: Me, Performing Stand-Up Comedy in New York City

Thanks Ceetar and JCL. Hopefuly I'll be saying something funny for about ten minutes.

I certainly hope you take everyday situations and turn them into stories that audiences love.

I got a permission slip from Wifey Bucket for this one. My brother-in-law's band will be playing the powerpop fest downtown afterward, so it's a full nite of entertainment for me. [youtube:2fmwb7xx]KBOiaJJ2eLQ[/youtube:2fmwb7xx]

That's some sweet jangle. Movie could have used more of that.

G-Fafif Oct 20 2011 12:32 PM Re: Me, Performing Stand-Up Comedy in New York City

If I were a band, I wouldn't want to follow bmfc1 on stage, not even in the same city.

Wish I could make it, but we can't. Next time!

bmfc1 Oct 24 2011 08:15 PM Re: Me, Performing Stand-Up Comedy in New York City

If you're going--thank you--doors are at 6:30, the show is at 7 and it's over at 9.

themetfairy Oct 24 2011 08:26 PM Re: Me, Performing Stand-Up Comedy in New York City

Will there be a CPF & Friends table?

I'll be there with a friend.

themetfairy Oct 25 2011 03:28 PM Re: Me, Performing Stand-Up Comedy in New York City

bmfc1 - Off the top of my head, I can think of a few a table - Me +1 dgw & mrs. dgw G-Fafif & Mrs. G-Fafif Lunchi (& Mrs. Lunchie?) Plus you can add our friend David Roth (and his wife?). I think we can fill a table if they can put one aside for us.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Oct 25 2011 05:50 PM Re: Me, Performing Stand-Up Comedy in New York City

wifey bucket shall not be attending. i may however drag along another guest.

Gwreck Oct 25 2011 06:59 PM Re: Me, Performing Stand-Up Comedy in New York City

I plan on being there too.

themetfairy Oct 25 2011 07:01 PM Re: Me, Performing Stand-Up Comedy in New York City

We may need two tables!

themetfairy Oct 30 2011 09:27 AM Re: Me, Performing Stand-Up Comedy in New York City

dgw, mrs. dgw and I are planning on a late dinner at Dallas BBQ on 42nd Street after the show. Is anyone else up for joining us?

John Cougar Lunchbucket Nov 03 2011 07:28 AM Re: Me, Performing Stand-Up Comedy in New York City

I will have to meet you guys at the show. Still trying to trick my brother into coming along, so I could be one or two.

Thanks to the CPF for the support. The show begins at 7 and will be over by 9. The promoter asks that people arrive when the doors open at 6:30. I'm not sure when I will be going on.

Edgy MD Nov 03 2011 02:40 PM Re: Me, Performing Stand-Up Comedy in New York City

You want to hit a homer for home team? Use the fake vomit gag. Works on me every time.

themetfairy Nov 04 2011 10:05 PM Re: Me, Performing Stand-Up Comedy in New York City

It was a great show - I hope that you play NYC again soon!

bmfc1 Nov 04 2011 10:28 PM Re: Me, Performing Stand-Up Comedy in New York City

The CPF was out in force tonight at the Broadway Comedy Club. Thank you so much. What a great night!

dgwphotography Nov 05 2011 07:37 AM Re: Me, Performing Stand-Up Comedy in New York City

It was a great show :-)

Edgy MD Nov 05 2011 08:16 AM Re: Me, Performing Stand-Up Comedy in New York City

So how did it go down? Was it a Don Rickles insult fest or what? We used to have this game among my friends --- to put together a really narrowcast comedy routine that would be hilarious among our small circle but we absolutely bomb in front of a general audience. "OK, who am I? You get it folks, with the hips...? I'M TIM TEUFEL! TIM TEUFEL, FOLKS! Whoah, what's with that hook?" If I had two tables full of Cranepoolers, I'd come out and open with "How 'bout that PiazzaFan411? Am I right, folks?" To heck with the rest of the room.

So how did it go down? Was it a Don Rickles insult fest or what? Sir, is that an IGT in your pocket or are you just happy to see me? Do we have any folks here who ranked Young above Parnell? Your ride back to the home will be here in five minutes. Sir, you look like a reasonable fellow -- or at least a fellow who thinks it would be reasonable to strangle Adam Rubin in his sleep. Hello, hello? Is this thing on? And by this thing, I mean m.e.t.b.o.t.

themetfairy Nov 05 2011 08:01 PM Re: Me, Performing Stand-Up Comedy in New York City

The Edgy DC routine slayed....
