The 2009 Comedy Death-Ray Xmas Nativity Pageant

[dexmike]

Sweet! Thanks so much

[ProfessorShutYoMouth]

This thread be braggin'.

I wish I could have been there. And I will also pay good money for a DVD (or audio) of the event.

[TheLizardKing]

Also,for complete historical accuracy: although she was listed on the poster, Sarah Silverman did not appear.

And those who are wishing for a recording, Andy Kindler let it slip that the show was being taped for a possible release by Comedy Central. I am guessing he meant an Audio-only release (especially since I only saw one video camera, might have missed others). Don't know if that will come to fruition though.

There were at least two video cameras, one straight back and one back right. I was there and I would pay money for a DVD.

Also, dexmike, I have a few photos of you that I'll put up when I get around to it.

[TheLizardKing]

Here's the link to all the photos of you.

Here's a few of the best ones.

The first batch of CDR photos are up, well, just the opening number. I'll get to the show portion when I get home tonight.

In the meantime, enjoy Bill & Ted Save Christmas and Santa, overcoming a slew of pop culture references from 2009 that get in the way of their mission:


Brett Gelman and Paul Scheer as Bill & Ted.


Tiger Woods' wife drops in and kidnaps santa, ruining christmas.


Rob Huebel as Octomom & Paul Rust as Jon Gosselin, killing octomom's child with a hanger.


Kulap Vilysack as Balloon boy and Jon Daly as the old man from Up.


James Adomian as some guy from Twilight, counting the muscles on his chest.


Michael Gladis and Jon Hamm stop by in character as Don Draper & Kinsey.


Rob Huebel as Billy Mays and Jon Daly as... someone, the other guy from twilight? The Shamwow guy? I don't remember.


Brandon Johnson as Monique's character from Precious. Yes he's making santa eat out her pussy.


"Did someone call my name? I was just passing by..."
"no, we said, strange... not weird."
".... oh... okay."
an awkward unwelcome drop in by weird al.

Hello friends,

I'll be posting some crappy pics (because of my camera, not the comics) of Comedy Death-Ray's Xmas Nativity show.

Liezl's pics are way better.

Also,for complete historical accuracy: although she was listed on the poster, Sarah Silverman did not appear.

And unless I missed him when I was in the bathroom, Neil Campbell did not appear.

Browsing this thread while I'm writing research papers in the Iowa tundra is making me pretty jealous of LA. These pictures are great.

[Gene George]

Yessir. I got in, I will recap sometime tomorrow.

Also another note, the guy who won the call from todd barry was kind of a dick.

And by "kind of" you mean "the biggest fucking dick ever".

[Michael Blacklist]

For what it's worth, he sat next to me and didn't seem to enjoy the evening =\

If it wasn't against the Xmas Nativity Pageant Spirit I would have throat punched him.

As it is I will wait until the New Year to wish him ball-cancer.

[P. J. Head]

That guy also seemed drunk, sick, and confused. I wish we had his contact info so we could ask him what his deal was. Anyone know Danny Devito? Maybe he could hook us up.

The pictures I really wanna see are any of Paul F. Tompkins in his Darby Crash pose, on his back doing comedy at the ceiling with his eyes closed.

[scamboogah]

You guys are all being very vague. Wanna clue the rest of us in on what this guy did, or are you all scared of getting sued or something?

Unless it was one of those situations where you can just look at a guy and know he's a dick, in which case, carry on.

[darrylduffy]

this is a great picture that Newman took himself.

So what happened at CDR Sketch? Why isn't anybody talking about that?














(great pics as always Liezl!)

[Trikywu]

I'm kind of glad I wasn't there. This looked like such a super awesome night that I would have given birth to an ovary. These photos are fantastic. Thanks Liezl and all.

He was an absolute prick to Todd. BJ I think (Maybe Aukerman, can't recall) summed it up thus: "He's talking to Todd like he thinks comedians talk to each other." Basically shitting on Todd and saying how he'd bid on the auction for tickets alone. Generally being a shitheel in that way where people who try to give you shit without knowing you do. It really came through in his overly blasé attitude etc. If he was drunk that might explain it, but not excuse it.

He ended his phone call (well they faded it out) right after he was telling Todd about how he's family is friends with Danny DeVito. Prarphrased and not guaranteed accurate (except in spirit)

Todd Barry (T) So does he have a nice house?
Shitheel (SH) No he lives in a shack in Redondo Beach.
T Really?
SH Naw he's got a big mansion in Beverly Hills.
T So can I stay there, can you hook me up?
SH Yeah, he's got a sweet guest house.

He was the opposite of classy.

i feel like Hardwick actually said this being that he had to follow the phone call.

It was some white dude, that's for sure. Might have been Chris.

[Itslikeimsayin]

Would "the biggest fucking dick ever" or an "absolute prick" hook you up to stay in Danny Devito's guest house? I don't think so. I dunno what you guys were listening to. That guy seemed like a total bro!
