David Cross, Bob Odenkirk, Sleater Kinney LIVE 8/31/04 NYC

[klaus_kinski]

Greetings

Just a heads up that David Cross will be hosting an evening of music and stand up at the Beacon Theater in New York City on August 31st. He will be performing with Sleater Kinney, Fred Armisen, Bob Odenkirk, (possibly) Built to Spill, and MANY other guests including many Daily Show alum.

Why the Beacon Theater? Simply put, clear Channel owns most of the other large venues here in NYC and they are giving these large venues to the Republican National Convention. There aren't enough venues in New York City for rich, white, older men and their zombie-like wives to convene, so Clear Channel stepped up to the plate to remedy that. Hooray!

Tickets will be on sale at Ticketmaster.com on Friday 7/30/04 at 11:00am.

www.knittingfactory.com has more details

And good luck, to us.

URRRGH!!! YET ANOTHER REASON TO HATE CLEAR CHANNEL!!!

[3v3+Z]

Am I the only one who sees it as a little odd that they would go out of there way to not be affiliated with Clear Channel in any way, but they're still doing the tickets via TicketMaster? Yes, I know Clear Channel is evil, and I suppose you have to choose your battles. But these people all know that TicketMastrer is evil too. So what does that say about TicketMaster that they obviously couldn't even get a decent alternative to take care of their tickets? Actually, is TicketMaster actually AFFILIATED with Clear Channel in some way? I don't know. I'm asking.

[klaus_kinski]

Ticketmaster is the ticket broker for the Beacon Theater and this relationship has nothing to do with the Involver show. Involver has no influence as to who the Beacon Theater uses to sell their tickets. Dig it? They have no choice

[klaus_kinski]

Did that post make me sound like a dick? Sorry if it did! I'm not being a dick, I swear.

In other words, who has more of a monopoly, TicketMaster or Clear Channel? "They have no choice"! EXACTLY!! You see the problem?

[klaus_kinski]

I do feel that ticketmaster is unbelievably unfair. I bought 2 of those VIP tickets and the service charges tacked on about $25.00 extra. That's insane!

[Mr.Admin]

Damn, I would love to go to this show.

Someone in NYC, please bring us a review when it's all over!

[agent_PUNT]

Klaus... the pressure's on you. I can't afford to go to NYC again. I can't wait til someone shows bob and david a map of Ontario and they discover there are millions of people living up here.

[tjamick]

next time you go you should bring a map with ontario (and pittsburgh) covered in red marker and tell him that that's where his largest fanbase is. he's a jokesmith, not a smartster, he won't know that you made that yourself. oh, and do it when he's drunk.

[tjamick]

and then rape him.

The best part is when they tack shit on like "convenience charges" because they're not even trying to hide the fact that they're fucking you. They're ironically throwing it in your face and laughing while they light cigars with $100 bills and snuff them out in an ashtray made from the bones of a fucking orphan.

God damn I hate those fucking cocksuckers.

[3v3+Z]

Someone explain the concept of lighting cigars with hundred dollar bills to me. I mean, I know it's supposed to be like rich people laughing at poor people and it's usually not meant literally. But can someone explain the Rube Goldberg logic of lighting a match or a lighter, using THAT to light a hundred dollar bill, then using THAT to light your cigar? I don't get it.

No dickface. You slide the bill in between your asscheeks and then start bootydance to some crunkass beats and the friction between your asscheeks and the $100 bill will actually cause it to burst into flames.

I wish you weren't a liar.

Hey, the Captain may be a LOT of things, but... wait... What was my point?

Sounds like you're not jiggy enough

[CptPlanet]

Either that or you lack a forest of friction assisting sweat-matted asshair. That's what puts me a cut above the rest, no pun intended.

[5InchTaint]

You really are a fag aren't you?

[CptPlanet]

I remember this thread. I was trying to set it up so that someone would say "There is no pun, I don't get it." and then I would say "DURRRR you fucking bloodrag! There wasn't supposed to be. What the fuck do you think 'No pun intended' means?"

[tjamick]

thats funny.



am i being sarcastic? no
am i being serious? no

[CptPlanet]

Faggot how'd you get more posts than me? I've been temporarily out-losered and I'm not going to take this sitting down.

[tjamick]

dont worry. i'm compleatly out of witty replies, so you'll be ahead of me soon enough.

[CptPlanet]

If you only posted when you had a witty reply you'd still be Ali G's half brother.


ICEBURN!

[tjamick]

you'd still love carrot top


BURN THAT ISNT VERY ORIGANAL, SO ITS NOT AS SEVERE.

[CptPlanet]

OH SNAP

[tjamick]

i'm gonna take back my come back and replace it with this one:

If you only posted when you had a witty reply you'd still be on the IMDB boards talking about "All That"
