The Andy Kindler Hub

Whoa, you can "hear" letters on a screen? Trippy, dude!

I wish I was bitter about "I Wish I Was Bitter" not being out yet.

But I am not.

Any news? Is it close? Did I miss it?

Nice write-up. Suck it or die!

Awesome show. It definitely exceeded my high expectations.

Also, what was with the guy walking up on stage near the end? Haha.

I wish I could've gone to every show, but I'm strapped for cash and late-Friday was my only time off this weekend.

Thanks! Just a quickie writeup, wish I had time/energy for more, but y'know how it is.

I went to both shows tonight, and I think the late show Friday was the best one. Tonight's early audience was very strange (with chatty people in the back, which blows my mind), and the late show audience was a little more energetic but not nearly as much as Friday late's.

The guy who ran onto the stage afterwards was this guy Rob, who seemed to be doing photography in an official capacity. His shots from before & after the show are on Facebook (dunno if this will work.... http://www.facebook.com/home.php?ref...4696717&ref=mf )

Basically, he was trying to position himself beside the stage, next to the front exit door. In trying to get there, he very awkwardly ran to the front of the audience, and darted across by stepping on the stage. People at the bar were still talking about it tonight, actually. In his defence, there were additional rows of chairs placed where there's normally space to walk infront of the stage, so he may have been caught off guard by that and just made a snap judgment error. But yeah, it was bad, and as a semi-pro live performer photographer I was horrified.

Had a blast this weekend with Andy, consuming way too much ice cream and laughing way too hard. We were cookin' it old school (<- show reference). Looking forward to him being in Sunday Night Live tomorrow at Comedy Bar. I was privy to some of the plans for Andy's parts in the show tomorrow, and I don't think anyone should pass up the opportunity to see him do sketch.

“How did you approach this special?” I said, “This special approached me.”

This is my approach towards specials. Don't appear too hungry. Let the special approach you.

Today is the day I sit down with Dane Cook so I can "know" him. Wish me luck!

Oh man, that should be epic. Is that being taped? Good luck!

Added a few more pics from last night's shows. People haven't been clickin' through to the photos, so here's the full set for those who've missed it:

Ok, this is the last from me, promise... some pics of Andy in last night's Sunday Night Live sketch show in Toronto. Truly an epic experience. Here we have Andy buying an $80 sundae for his girlfriend, appearing in a commercial advertising his comedy services, hosting an easy-talk radio show, and being gang-mugged at an ATM.

Yeah yeah, I said that was it, and it's not. I'm a big fucking liar.

The folks from Comedy Bar have posted a few videos of Andy doing the Sunday Night Live show. This show kicked serious ass, so I highly recommend watching these.

Andy did his State of the Industry Address in Montreal, which ended just an hour ago. I come bearing an 1,800-word synopsis. I may have better notes on his set than HE does.

Enjoy!

Or available outside the states. I've been waiting for this for months, but nope, can't support an artist I love because of a border line.

You're right. That has been remedied.
