More Sleaze

The Big Sleazy Show at the Green Door, produced by Nate Simmons and his cohort of comics last Thursday, was a huge success.

The crowd had a great time, the comics were funny, and the room was fantastic for this kind of show. Needless to say Your Old Pal Foz improved the opportunity to get a few ice cold whisky type drinks. Here is a picture of one of them, with super-funny comic Lauren Vino performing in the background because..... Well, duh!

The Big Sleazy will return next Thursday night at the Green Door, 678 Orleans, in the basement speak easy room. Foz will play piano and do whatever else they need. There will be another fantastic lineup of great comics.

So make your plans to be there. If you're lucky, maybe Lauren Vino will be there.

Duh!

The Big Sleazy

There are many times that I wish I was in New Orleans, but not today. We have the Ninth Ward right here in Chicago today with hot temperatures and sticky stanky wetness. That’s why there is not a better week to debut the fantastic new comedy showcase at The Green Door Tavern, The Big Sleazy.

The Big Sleazy features a peck of fine young comedy talent such as Nate Simmons, Jason Earl Folks, and whoever-the-hell-else is on the bill. Your Old Pal Foz provides piano playing and inter-comedy chatter. This fine show takes the stage tomorrow night, Thursday, July 21, at 9:00 p.m. The Green Door is at 678 N. Orleans in the River North neighborhood. Come on out and help Old Foz christen a new show, and then buy as many beers as you can afford to buy me.

In the meantime, meet Your Favorite Band Foz the Hook tonight at 9:00 at Cole’s for the Every Week Amazing Open Mic Comedy Show. Starring Cameron Esposito, and Adam Burke, plus The List, of desperate, desperate comics who will do just about anything to make you laugh. Strike that! They will do anything – ANYTHING – to make you laugh. So come and take advantage of them.

They don’t seem to mind that much.
