First off I’d like to apologize for dragging those of you who showed up at 9:00 last night through a comedy of errors of sorts. There was a mis-communication as to the starting time of Last night’s Narrative Comedy Experiment. I stated here on this WEB PAGE that the start was 9:00 pm but it actually was at 10:00 p.m. ish. Any how the start time for these 4rth Thursday of the month workshops is 10 ish from now on. In case you missed it, below is Mike Baker’s short intro to the evening.

This Thursday night, 8/26/10.
It is a group of stand up comics dissatisfied with the current joke dominated form of stand-up trying to develop a story oriented, narrative style. What we are doing at the Lit is a controlled workshop, not a finished show. There will be successes and train wrecks. We invite interested people to come have a beer, watch this process develop, and tell us what they think.

Firefly Jazz we hardly knew you. Don’t tell me that a year has already passed since we first met. Already it’s time we plunge our separate ways into the future. Like the millisecond it takes the rear ends of those flying bugs ( for which the band’s name is derived ) to light up so gloriously was how fast the time we spent together seemed to go. Farewell.
The end of their last number of the evening, August 19th, 2010.
Recorded at the Literary Cafe in Cleveland.

It was good to see mid 00′s Tremont catalyst J. Makkos (who’s now living in New Orleans) this past weekend. Wow, now I’m starting to look back at the 00′s nostalgically.
Here at the Lit he’s best known for his epic performance on Episode 23 of the New Literary Cafe Talk Show.

I think many of you writers out there in Tremland should attend (and will be glad you did) the next fourth Thursday of the month installment of the Narrative Comedy experiment.
