		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s a surprising fact: we&#8217;re coming up on the nine-year anniversary of Aqua Teen Hunger Force&#8217;s first episode (which, appropriately, was shown unannounced at 5am). That&#8217;s nine years of a series comprised of three talking fast-food items, their hairy, masturbation-loving neighbor, a bizarre cast of supervillians and a lot of nonsensical yelling. I&#8217;m not sure [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[RECOMMENDED It&#8217;s mostly inaccurate to label Bill Cosby as a &#8220;stand-up comedian&#8221; anymore. First off, no way in hell is he going to be standing—the 72-year old understandably plops himself into a chair for his shows. Second, Cosby doesn&#8217;t fit the traditional mold of stand-up&#8217;s set-up/punchline structure—he&#8217;s more of a storyteller with humorous tangents and [...]]]></description>

		<guid isPermaLink="false">http://newcitystage.com/?p=7033</guid>
		<description><![CDATA[RECOMMENDED The always-caustic Dave Attell brings his ubiquitous cigarette and smooth, soothing baritone to Lakeshore Theater, where his scathing wit and bizarrely contentious comments will take center stage. While many will remember Attell for his late-night Comedy Central series &#8220;Insomniac with Dave Attell,&#8221; which consisted of Attell roaming around the nightlife of a city, engaging [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[RECOMMENDED Man, I wish I could be so wildly successful at comedy that when I’m 64, I can say, “You know, I’m tired of stand-up. I think I’ll go on a banjo/bluegrass tour,” and only not can I embark on such a tour as specifically quirky as the banjo-picking kind, but I can go play [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[RECOMMENDED Drunken, obscene and kind of a jerk, Australian comedian Jim Jefferies offers the three most enduring qualities of a successful stand-up (along the fourth-most: funny accents!). While part of his current popularity stems from a well-reported incident at a Manchester gig in which he was punched in the face by an apparently not-amused spectator, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I assume Oak Park-born comedienne Kathy Griffin is at least kind of funny. Between her Emmy-award winning reality show, &#8220;Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List,&#8221; her best-selling book “Official Book Club Selection: A Memoir According to Kathy Griffin,” and her general omnipresence on cable, Griffin has somehow parlayed her giggly giddiness and approximately twenty-seven [...]]]></description>

When I saw him last year at Zanies, he looked disheveled, eyes bloodshot, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[RECOMMENDED Personally, I find David Cross the actor to be more consistently funny than David Cross the stand-up, who can tend to meander in vitriolic tangents with few jokes. His tenure on the now-defunct (but beloved) &#8220;Arrested Development&#8221; spurred the classic Tobias Funke character, a flamboyant actor/psychological analyst and therapist (a self-proclaimed &#8220;analrapist&#8221;) who&#8217;s oblivious [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[RECOMMENDED A stand-up stud in indie circles (an automatic distinction once Sub Pop releases one of your performances), Patton Oswalt—along with his &#8220;Comedians of Comedy&#8221; cohorts Zach Galifianakis and Brian Posehn—represents the best in nerdy, heavy-set comics. Oswalt has the gift of being able to rip on the absurdity of Middle America (his critique of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[RECOMMENDED Comedy vet David Alan Grier has taken some pretty awful roles in a few godforsaken films—like Damon Wayans’ sidekick in the 1994 superhero parody “Blankman,” or as a bumbling American soldier in the Pauly Shore bomb “In the Army Now” – but he’s become a pretty dependable and relatively enjoyable stand-up, based on his [...]]]></description>
