Rory Scovel and Kojo Mante made an appearance on NBC yesterday to plug the fest, and did an outstanding
job squeezing the state of DC comedy into a five-minute interview segment. I'd embed it here, but the kind people and NBC
didn't see fit to provide the code, so I'll just post the link really large with a picture of Bob Vila.
Hope you enjoyed that more than we did making it. It was about 15 degrees out thanks to wind chill factor while shooting those
scenes with Jermaine in Rockville. But, it was successful and there's something new out there from the TDC crew, as expansive
as it is becoming.
That whole 'death' thing was an elaborately concocted hoax. Nobody's really dead, as far as I know. Sorry to disappoint any
of you finger-crossers with particular enemies. But we're all alive and healthy and let's be thankful blah blah blah.
I talked about the TDC Facebook group last time, I'm just throwing in yet another mention of it. What else did I want to call
attention to? Oh, right. There's an awfully big proliferation of "wolf" bands nowadays. You've got Montreal ironic-moustache
men Wolf Parade, Japanese punkers Guitar Wolf, some band called AIDS Wolf, a noise group called Wolf Eyes...
Basically, all I wanted to say was that Los Lobos were doing it decades before that shit was popular. Talk to
you all soon.

Watch the video for Wes Mann's "If Only You Knew" right here! THROUGH THE WASH What happens to common appliances and gadgets mistakenly go through the wash and dry cycle? Do they come out alive?
Check out this handy site, with appearances from myself, Jake, and Aparna. Hosted by Chris and filmed my Joe "the man"
Deeley.
MUZAK!?
Listings coming soon. Once I have some damn time.
IF
YOU LIVE IN THE DC AREA, HAVE A SOUL, AND ENJOY GOOD LIVE COMEDY, I highly recommend these weekly/biweekly shows.
MONDAY 11TH ST. LOUNGE First and third mondays of every month. It's
intimate, friendly, and the servers upstairs are fine. Even an audience of 10 non-comics can whip the place into a frenzy.
Hosted by Lou Giglio, or Bart Voisin if he couldn't escape the calling. Oh Highland Dr, right across from the Clarendon
Grill.
SPY LOUNGE Eli "the man" Sairs and Tyler "da man" Richardson run this
open mic at a bizarrely posh but still fun place right in the heart of Adam's Morgan, on 18th St. Starts around 8pm.
CHIEF IKE'S MAMBO ROOM Run by the luminaries behind DCC4N. On Columbia Rd. right north of that intersection
in Adams-Morgan.
TUESDAY Nema is gone, but info about Takoma Station and the Library
(both in Northeast) coming soon.
Wiseacre's happens on this night, out in Tyson's.
WEDNESDAY Wiseacres will always be there, hopefully, out in Tyson's.
DR. DREMO'S IS DEAD. LONG LIVE DR. DREMO'S.
THURSDAY College Perk First and third Thursday of every month, this is probably
the most fun you'll have at an open mic in the area. Maybe because it's a college hangout with a liquor license. 9078
Baltimore Avenue, College Park, MD

"I'm gonna hire a fat
person to sit in the driver's seat whenever I'm not using the car. Maybe get a midget with ice in his mouth to blow
on the back of my neck while I'm driving." "If I ever won a source award, I would go onstage and speak
ebonics." "If you can be fat and do it, its not a sport." - Forest "Socrates"
