unbibiumGood show last night.
By sheer luck, they had a seat open right at the very front. So I was like ten feet from the performer.
Opening act: not very good. Headliner: very good.
I left, and got to the bus stop, and realized I forgot to pay for my drinks. So I went back and fought through the line to get into the 10:00 show, and as luck would have it, the other people at the table paid for mine. Wow.
So I go back to the bus stop, and I run into the headliner, Greg Behrendt, on his way somewhere. I manage to stop him in his tracks by mentioning a local movie he did a cameo in. He talked a little about the director of the movie and what he did next. I also told him I was at a show that he talked about on stage, where he opened for Mitch Hedberg. And we talked about how you can trace how he was roommates with David Cross by virtue of his act, a Mr. Show sketch, and the DVD commentary. It turns out he gets approached by people who think he stole from David Cross. He told me to find him on Facebook, and I have.
That's the thing about stand-up comedy; it's not that difficult to get access to people, though some are probably more difficult than others. I went with a friend to see Bob Saget, and he tried to find him after the show to try and sell him some jars, but he couldn't.
