The cast of , an-LA based comedy show made up of several former Chicagoans/Steamroller MVPs, released a webseries called Tailgaters last week. It's a great, weird little series of shorts that I highly recommend you watch right away, and, if you live in LA, check out The Wheel Show, monthly at Meltdown Comics!

Hi, I hate to break it to you, but everyone in your generation is sad.
I expected your reaction. I know your generation has a problem with the truth, so I wanted to back up my claim with some research that I drawed.
This is you:
"Another last Friday of the month, another Creative Control at saki."
We've done this thing 6 or 7 times at this point, and I feel like the show's never been better. Joe McAdam does a killer job hosting and building an eclectic lineup of performers, and it's pretty heartwarming to see a community of comics and regular humans has built around the show, with a large percentage of folks consistently coming out each month.
features another ridiculously strong bill, and with a few acts I've never actually seen perform before, which is always exciting for me, personally.
We've got standup from , Michael Joyce, Candy Lawrence, Andrew Smreker, and former Chicagoan, current LA resident, , as well as sketch or other bizzare shit from and , and music from local weirdo rockers Oshwa.
, a Chicago-based brewers' collective, has been kind enough to offer up their homebrews for sampling, free of charge. All they ask is for a small tip, which they split with the show's performers. I can't explain how much I love that they're doing this, and am really happy to be working with such forward-thinking and generous folks.
Creative Control November is this Friday, 11/30 at 8pm. The show's totally free, as always, but you should definitely bring money for donations/tips. It's the least you can do. saki is at 3716 W. Fullerton. See you there.
