laughter against the machine


This is for my San Francisco friends... Comedian Hari Kondabolu, a very funny guy, informs me that he'll be taking part in a show next week with W. Kamau Bell and Nato Green at the Punchline Comedy Club. He's a funny dude, so you all should go check him out. Details:
WHAT: Laughter Against the Machine with W. Kamau Bell, Nato Green and Hari Kondabolu

WHERE: The Punchline Comedy Club (444 Battery St. San Francisco, CA)

WHEN: 8pm (Doors at 7:30 pm)

COST: $15 (Advance: http://www.livenation.com/edp/eventId/407544/)

DESCRIPTION:

W. Kamau Bell (SF Weekly's Best Comedian 2008 & Comedy Central's first comic to tell a Barack Obama joke) and Nato Green (of Iron Comic, Laughing Liberally Local 415, & The New Jew Revue ) --- two of the Bay Area's most deeply underground and thought-provoking comedians --- band together for the second edition of their comedy summit: Laughter Against The Machine. LATM is a stand-up comedy show which promises an evening filled with biting political & social commentary, that will attack all points along the spectrum from the rightest right to the leftest left. This is an evening of the comedians doing what they do best and are supposed to do, expressing their pointed opinions in hilariously awesome ways. Tonight's show also features special guest Hari Kondabolu (Jimmy Kimmel Live and Comedy Central's Live at Gotham).

Come. Sit down. Laugh. Go home.
I first became a fan of Hari Kondabolu when I saw him in the hilarious short film Manoj. Since then I've seen him perform standup on Comedy Central and Jimmy Kimmel Live. This should be a pretty fun show. For more information, and to purchase tickets, go here.
