Comedy Night with 23/6 Wrap Up

POSTED BY: Michael Kraskin

Last night, after Clinton gave her speech, Dennis and I attended a comedy event at the Big Tent hosted by our friends at 23/6.  They had a fantastic line up including Eugene Mirman, Lee Camp (pictured above), Rachel SklarFred Armisen, and the folks from Barely Political.

Oh.  And Matt Cooper.  Yes, THAT Matt Cooper. Apparently after the Valerie Plame event he decided to go from respected Time reporter to amateur stand up.  Maybe Judy Miller should try the same to deliver a much needed boost to her career.  He was pretty good actually.

Other things I learned below the fold:

  • Rachel Sklar is rooming with Obama Girl here in Denver. Rachel was wearing Obama Girl's bra last night (strapless, I believe).
  • Though the original Obama Girl video wasn't to my taste, Barely Political is making some damn funny stuff now:
  • Lee Camp (pictured above) is the guy in those Fresh Debate '08 things that ran on Comedy Central.
  • Eugene Mirman has an abortion joke that is both hilarious AND inoffensive.  It's kind of amazing, but I won't spoil it for you.

  1. We kinda just found the show accidentally. It was great. Lee Camp was the best part. F*cking hysterical. That guy should be a star.
