Harriet Tubman was mentioned at a comedy show I attended tonight. I went to two shows and the headliner at the second show spoke of touring her home in upstate New York. I was impressed with the headliner at the first show, a visitor from Chicago, as well.
First show I attended started off with two dancers, I think it was the front-woman of a local band and Grizzly Adams. I think I will now refer to the former as 'Chameleon' since I said she changes her outfits often like another musician does- Madonna. She wanted to know if she could quote me, I said I wasn't sure who reads the blog outside of the comedy community. Then Grizzly did an introduction with Bathtub. Next performer was Mr. Pibb, who did ones about a cop in the trunk, a serial arsonist, clowns and commitment, is this your cat?, police lineup, cat burglars, Rihanna, take them to South-dale, not raised by gas station, and IUD poking. Grizzly does an inner monologue. Then we have International Falls, who did ones about birth control, casual sex, caress hair in a porta pottie, no HR person at social services, street harasser, and police dog poem. Bathtub did a video about roasting what some animals were doing. Laundry did ones about used hot dogs, dog whistles, bakery prison and whore, roundabouts, and sex over consequences. Bathtub does a video with his dog. Then he does jokes about being on Last Comic Standing, tracking on Domino's Pizza, petting zoo at wedding, and stolen babies. Poster artist does a peasant video, and one outfit he wears reminded me of Blues Traveler front-man John Popper, especially the hat. Grizzly follows, and did ones about walking cats, 5 years in 10 minutes at a doctor appointment, throw away popcorn, and one dollar at a gas station. Wisconsin guy did ones about the Target clinic, spring break, erectile ads, chardonnay, and Edmund Fitzgerald beer. The Chicago visitor did ones about I'm going in to the bank, make it available, Star Trek, fraud and frog, car at Pearl Jam, booted car while doing laundry, rabbit hop in, Mega-bus phase of career, reciting some of Casey At The Bat, and camp chaperone.
The second show was nearby. The MC did ones about just felt right, studio apartment, generic cereal, go in garage and wait, work construction, AARP letters, cougar siting in city, bring girls, and trash can baby. Wisconsin guy was next, and did ones about erectile ads, Whole Foods, and spring break. Others were about the Seattle bus station, and hometown hockey players. Three by three did ones about St. Patrick's Day drinking, a wedding gig, golf clap, drug deal behind bushes, picking her up and grunting, you can get anything you want, pie/pi, resume typos, dirty talk, wash hands/happy birthday, and that was 20 years ago.
The headliner was somebody who has been a Facebook friend for a while, but I think this was the first time I had seen perform. She did ones about birthdays, delivered by Slappy Mae, pray for dead squirrel, pray then order lobster, you're worldly, baptized 3 times, moving to Minnesota, meeting other football coaches, Eminem and Red Rover, and meeting in-laws. Others were about being a DINK couple, ice cream man playing slow jams, lingerie from in-law, husband teaches history, hippo deaths in Africa, they're from Disneyland, create diversion start fight, and Oprah Winfrey and the Underground railroad. Then there were ones about tweet to Delta, champagne and bag is found, we want to meet you, same day the kid went to Las Vegas, inflate air mattress, shout at scary movie, neo Nazi cocaine dealer, X-box, sugar dealer house, got to have caffeine, Nicki Minaj, happy birthday sheet cake, and did weed and talks a lot. I liked getting her CD after the show, and it was signed as well. and she was added to the 'ring of honor'.
