I signed up. If anyone else is going, let's meet up. She posted:

I’m Performing For Free & On TV in NYC Next Weekend. Come!

I will be performing on the late show, Saturday January 15th, 2011 on a live TV taping (for Comedy Central) of John Oliver’s New York Stand-up Special. He’s the host.

All you have to do to get FREE TICKETS is go to this website and then do what I say:

Click on “any show” but then in the drop down list indicate that the performer named “Jen Kirkman” referred you. That’s me.

Come out and show Comedy Central that I have people who will represent!!!

Oh! And the show is being filmed at NYU’s Skirball Center. So go here to figure out how to get there. http://skirballcenter.nyu.edu/

Well, I ended up getting tickets for tonight and it was awesome. I thought by selecting Jen Kirkman that we were going to see Jen Kirkman but I guess you had to select Saturday and Jen Kirkman so, didn't get to see Southie.

That being said... so much fun. John Oliver is hilarious and endearing. He's a great story teller and if I could go see him again I would. My friend and I had a lot of fun and laughed a lot.

I'm listening to the podcast from June with Johns Hodgman and Oliver.  Comedy gods!


If John Hodgman ran NPR the NPR people who listen now would still listen, but a lot more people would listen just for the subversiveness.
