Observer Blurb

Here's the mention the Dallas Funniest Person contest received in this week's Dallas Observer:

Great stand-up comedy feels so good when the gut laughter wells up within your stomach and you release a hearty chuckle from the depths of your funny bone. Of course, for the more sadistic funny bone, bad stand-up comedy can be just as satisfying. What's better than knowing that some poor fool is not only less funny than you, but willing to demonstrate this fact in public? All the better if we get to watch the sink-or-swim spectacle in a conveniently located downtown venue such as the West End Comedy Theater, 603 Munger Ave. in the West End Marketplace, which, if we attend the Dallas' Funniest Person amateur stand-up competition, we will surely get to do. Every Wednesday night for the next five weeks, Dallas' comedy amateurs compete for a performance slot at the 2006 Dallas Comedy Festival and a fabulous cash prize. Doors at 8 p.m.; tickets are $10.

I heard some comics were offended by this. I thought it was pretty cool.

Peace and love.
