Rest of the Fest


I'm heading back to New York as we speak (yay, Megabus buses having Internet!). The Boston Comedy Festival was AWESOME - I can't thank festival organizer Jim McCue (who's book, Embedded Comedian, is a fantastic read and highly recommended) for choosing me to be part of the competition and for putting together such an amazing festival (thanks also to Helen McCue and the volunteers, too!). Thanks also to Sean McCarthy (author of the industry blog, The Comic's Comic) for the nice write-up in his festival analysis - it's crazy to go from reading the blog to see who made it in the Festival to being in the blog as a comic that did well in the Festival. Finally, a HUGE thank you to Nelson Greaves, for hosting me for the entire week - it was hugely generous and I can't thank him enough. (He's also one of the current co-presidents of the Harvard College Stand-Up Comic Society, so he's helping continue the club I started on campus two years ago, a club dedicated to promoting the great art of stand-up on Harvard's campus.)

Can't wait for next year!!!
