What's funny in Asheville? Lots of Bastardry!

In between rehearsing for the upcoming Feral Chihuahuas season-opener I'm going to be in a few shows over the weekend.

It's the third year of the Asheville Community Theater's Late Night Comedy Series at 35 Below, and this weekend will be two shows by the Oxymorons. These will be the first shows to really feature some of the newer members of the improv group, and will be my re-introduction to improv.

Shows are Friday and Saturday nights, 8pm at 35 Below (enter on Market St). Tickets are only $10

After the show on Saturday, I'll be heading down to NC Stage Company for the Best of No Shame Theatre - my piece "The Rise and Fall of the Alliteranation" was nominated. Show starts at 11 and should be a riot. Tickets are $5 at the door - this will be one of the strangest shows you will ever see!

Why didn't I think of that? And can I steal their idea.

The online Citizen-Times is reporting that a play (involving original music) about Asheville's homeless is going to be produced in Virginia.

Ideas this awesome never come along - homeless people, the musical? When it gets produced, I volunteer to be the ticket-taker.

Hey man, I just need you to come see my show, you see my old lady is with my car at the garage and I just need $3.57 to get to her or I'll lose my car. God bless.

Maybe there'll be room in it for Matt

Au revoir, hair

Decided to try a new, leaner, meaner, more slim-lined Bastard look for this summer so I cut off most of my hair on Friday.

Rehearsals for the July 3 and 4 Feral Chihuahuas shows start tonight! It's going to be a great show, tickets should be available in the next day or two from our brand-new website.

Tonight you can catch the Oxymorons live at Razcals - I can't be there tonight but that just means that "beer sausage" most likely will not get used in a game.

Au revoir, Caffiend

Mountain Xpress is reporting that the favorite coffee haunt of the Bastard is shutting down tomorrow.

I know it had come close a couple of times, but I was always keeping my fingers crossed - the idea was brilliant, the coffee good, the crowd extremely dingy and sour. They were a sponsor of the Feral Chihuahuas two years ago and I ran a pretty decent open mic night there (with an ugly fallout, but that wasn't Caffiend's fault).

Now I'm going to need to find a new place for morning coffee (it was pointed out on the weekend that I always have either a beer or a coffee in hand).

There's going to be a closeout bash for Caffiend tomorrow night, I'll stop by.

BEER SAUSAGE!!!

I didn't end up on stage at Razcal's last night, I chatted with the owner and threw in "helpful" suggestions from the crowd. The new owner has really changed the feel of the place, there's an airy game room, amusing food and some very friendly staff. Not a huge crowd, interesting thing was that people who were clearly not there expecting a show stayed and had a good time. I hope we can advertise the next one (NEXT MONDAY 8PM - most likely I'll not be in the cast for this one since I'm scheduled for a Feral Chihuahuas researsal that night).

However there is one other great reason to go to Razcals

BEER SAUSAGE!!!!



This is the greatest name for a menu item ever.

So come out next Monday for some Improv and BEER SAUSAGE
