Mad genius Rory Scovel (of THE New York City, New York, you guys) is headlining the Comedy Underground tonight and tomorrow night (at 8:30 and 10:30 pm each night).

I can’t find a video clip that adequately captures Scovel’s deceptively-simple-brilliant-weirdo-rambling, or his preternatural control over a crowd. But this one has a good masturbation joke, so we’ll go with it:

Also on the bill tonight: People’s Republic of Komedy cofounder Dan Carroll and someone named Sean Patton who, apparently, “focuses more on originality, personal perspective and tales glorifying the beauty of human flaw rather than the classic set-up punchline joke-telling.” Okay, sold.

Lindy West was born an unremarkable female baby in Seattle, Washington. The former Stranger writer covered movies, movie stars, exclamation points, lady stuff, large frightening fish, and much, much more....

  1. Ms. West,

    Those appleheads don’t resemble Michael Douglas, the one on the right is clearly Robin Williams as Mrs. Doubtfire and the chap at lower left is Sir John Gielgud playing Arthur’s butler.

    With love and respect,
    FS
