LA Comedy Show Postmortem

by Wayno & Piraro

Last night’s comedy show in LA went well and everyone had a terrific time. This was verified by federal polling officials who interviewed each and every member of the audience as they exited, ascertaining that their time was “terrific.” Thanks to all you Jazz Pickles who showed up and said “hi.”

While I enjoyed my set, my favorite part of the evening by far was getting to meet Garfunkel and Oates, a comedy duo who have been among my absolute favorites for a few years now. The image below these words is non-Photoshopped proof (except for red-eye reduction) of our meeting.

If I look pleased, that is because I was trying to hide my ecstasy. I meet a fair amount of celebrities and am not particularly thrilled by it, but on rare occasion I meet someone whose work is truly brilliant and I get all riled up and how. These young ladies’ work is truly brilliant. Apart from their amazing comedy skills, they’re also both fairly accomplished actresses. Wiki Garfunkel and Oates here to find out more.

They performed two new songs last night that were probably the funniest I’ve ever heard them do. But here’s one of my favorite older songs of theirs.
