GarageComedy Monday 4/27 -MOVING from El Cid to Hyperion Tavern, FREE show again!

[Garage Comedy]

After five years of doing a show EVERY monday night at El Cid I finally decided last night that I'm over the place. El Cid is great and the old owners were great. Sadly (two months ago) it was bought by some new guys who aren't so great. When I coupled the new owners with the problems that already exist with El Cid (too big - seats 150 people, bad acoustics, electrical problems, smelly bathrooms) it added up to the fact that I needed to find a new venue. For the past two months I was looking for the perfect location and I found it!! Thanks to my friend George Earth who runs "The Talk Show" every monday night at 10pm at the Hyperion Tavern. I'm super excited to move the show, which is starting THIS monday April 27th:

EVERY MONDAY NIGHT THREE SHOWS FOR FREE:
8pm - Misbegotten Video Show
9pm - Garage Comedy Presents
10pm - The Talk Show

The best news, we don't have to charge anything. The show is FREE again!! The beers are cheap, free street parking, and we still have good old Corky Baines, professional roadie.


here's a picture from inside Hyperion Tavern


here's a yelp about it.

You know that shady-looking abandoned shack on Hyperion across from Casita Del Campo? Some hipsters broke in one nite, put in a couple new lightbulbs, got a 6-pack of beer and called all their friends.

The party was such a hit that now they do it every nite! Sometimes a bunch of art school bands play and then we are treated to some spoken word, sometimes a hot chick plays the accordian and makes you dress up in costumes, sometimes there is dancing, and sometimes they have toilet paper.

Wait, are we revealing one of Silverlake's best kept secrets? Oops.

p.s. Just bring your own booze. It's so dark in there that no one will notice.

The Hyperion Tavern is a great place. I hope it's a good fit!

Garage Comedy just won't be the same without overpriced tapas none of the comics are wealthy enough to rationalize ordering.

I ordered the crab-stuffed mushrooms there once. THEY WERE ALL RIGHT!

This monday night, April 27th our first show at Hyperion Tavern will feature:

8pm- The Misbegotten Video Show - with host/ curator Sean Hart and the last of four of his shows called Weak Nights
9pm - Garage Comedy Presents: featuring the Ithaca College reunion show
10 pm - The Talk Show - with George Earth

[Garage Comedy]

so yeah, the Tapas at El Cid suck, there is some really funny yelps about how bad the food is ... George sorry you had ANYTHING with seafood in it there ...
Hyperion Tavern has NO food in fact all they have is beer BIG beer:

[megalope]

Also, last time I went, Hyperion was cash-only. They even have a neat-o old-fashioned register.

[Garage Comedy]

yeah it's cash only, and they have an ATM but it's old fashioned too (and not ironically) so I guess bring all your stripper money

[Garage Comedy]

by the way I meant stripper money in the sense that it was the money that you would usually set aside for strippers (not the money that you make AS a stripper)
bummpppp.......

I thought that meant you'd figured out I've been moonlighting as a stripper.

griiiiinnnnnd......
