    THE BENSON INTERRUPTION - Monday, Sept. 8 - 11:00pm

    if you've always wanted to attend an interruption show that didn't have a long line to get in, this is your chance! due to the lateness of the showtime and the secretness of the line-up, i expect this will be the least attended TBI ever. but i promise it'll be a good one. see you there??

    (hey, what's the parenthetical sentence doing here?!?)

    i've booked four guests for this show, and they are amazing. i'd have sex with three of them. at once. seperately, not so much.

    I can't believe this isn't sold out yet. Although that's good for me because I just got a ticket.

    yes, the guests were jimmy dore, paul scheer, sarah silverman, graham "lady coat" elwood and paul f. tompkins (three of which have been on sarah's show, and two of which have been on BWE). it was a grand time - pft's extended dissection of the rumplestiltskin fable was a highlight. and graham wearing sarah's coat and kicking someone's pretzel snacks across the theater. and sarah doing her ghost impressions. and mr. scheer talking about knott's scary farm. and jimmy enjoying a margarita that he brought from home.

    i think doing the show late on the second monday of each month is going to make it easier for people to get in without waiting in line. if anyone had shown up right at 11:00 (i think some in fact did) they would have no problem getting in. which is cool, i think. (especially since the weather is going to get cooler.) keeping the line-ups secret (you know it's always gonna be good), while giving out occasional hints here and on the TBI myspace page, just might help to make this a show that is always busy but never get-turned-away full.

    so i'll see you on october 13!

    (and at ILM tonight and DOUG LOVES INTERRUPTING MOVIE MUSICALS on thursday)

    I'm finishing up the first leg of a rather epic road trip, and my first night in LA (ever)? This show. It was fantastic, and I'm not just saying that because I won DVDs and a CD for knowing who sang "One Toke Over The Line".

    It was my first UCB experience, and I'm kinda smitten.

    Thanks for bumping this thread and reminding me how badass this show was. Late works because I can make it after open mic Mondays.

    People who go to this show are uniformly smart, attractive, and will eventually become very wealthy.
