James, Mike and me
Originally uploaded by icemakk.
Last night James Moore, the man who started Comedy Monday Night, down at Dickens pub, had a real treat for his audience. The man dubbed "The King of Canadian Comedy" Mr. Mike McDonald himself made a surprise appearence. James had every reason to be proud because when a big name like Mike McDonald finds your room, you know it is part of the comedy scene.
We are not sure what Mike is looking at in the pic above...he posed for quite a few and of course had to make them funny.
Check out the big ass smile of pride on James' face!
The audience got to watch 8 of Mike's workshop students, a few regulars (including myself) before blowing the crowd away with a 20 minute set that was nothing short of hilarious. Quite a few were surprised to see such a big name hit the stage (I am talking about Mike...not me!!).
James I hope the word spreads that your room is THE place to see comics working on material or stopping by to do a set. Thanks for all the stage time.
Every major city seems to have one of these rooms where comics come to meet and yours is really making its mark. First a CBC radio taping and now this! What else do you have planned for Comedy Monday Night James?
