Hwd (Laugh Factory + Improv)

October 27th, 2009

here’s the email i just sent out to my LA distribution…

—

hello, all – i’ve got 2 spots this week… Thu at the Laugh Factory again and Sun at the Improv!

i’m booked for the 5th straight week to host & open for tim allen again at the hollywood laugh factory.

and no, i’m actually not getting too cocky about it, b/c you never know when the streak will come to an end.

actually, we do. i leave next mon to hit the road for a couple of weeks. so, there’s that.

here are the deets:

HOLLYWOOD LAUGH FACTORY
8001 sunset blvd., hollywood, ca 90046; (323) 656-1336
Thu, Oct 29 @ 8 pm

- show starts at 8 pm; I’m up at 8 pm.
- i’m doing 20+ minutes this time w/ lots of new material.
- the factory has been “rolling” the shows, i.e., the 8 pm runs into the 10 pm and they let people just stay. we switch hosts but have to do it clandestinely so people don’t leave. (they won’t always do this but it’s a bonus when they do. of course, you’re welcome to leave after any comic’s set.)
- i don’t know the lineup yet but it’s always good.
- tickets are FREE if you email me back by Thu at 5 pm – just tell me names of people in your party and you don’t have to pay the $20 admission. you just need to buy two drinks – and they can be cokes.
- include your phone number so i can text you in case anything changes.
- and tell me if you’re “definite” or “tentative.” if you’re 90+% you’re going to make it, that’s “definite.” no downside to being on the “tentative” list… you might get better seats as a definite, tho.

HOLLYWOOD IMPROV
8162 melrose ave., los angeles, ca 90046; (323) 651-2583
Sun, Nov 1 @ 7:30 pm

- show starts at 7:30 pm; I’m probably up around 8:30 pm.
- i’m doing closer to 12 minutes this time w/ lots of new material.
- a promoter is running this show so i cannot get you free tickets. however, tickets are at a discounted $12 (instead of $17) if you order at www.tinyurl.com/yhomd8f and use the promo code “MCTK.” 2-drink min still applies.
- you don’t have to tell me if you’re coming since there’s no guest list but it’ll be nice if you do so i know to look out for you and say “hi.” = ) shoot me your phone number so i can text you in case anything changes.
- and tell me if you’re “definite” or “tentative.” if you’re 90+% you’re going to make it, that’s “definite.” no downside to being on the “tentative” list… you might get better seats as a definite, tho.

feel free to fwd this on if you can’t make it (or even if you can)…

hope to catch you at one of the events this week… thanks, as always! – rajiv
