    The HBO Comedy Festival is holding auditions at the Improv Comedy Theater (I-10@Silber) in Houston this Thursday at 10pm.

    I got a call today from one of the festival coordinators for help, I convinced the Improv to allow free admission, although there is still a 2 item minimum purchase(coke or whatever). I will be hosting the affair and it guarantees to be one of the hottest hour and a half comedy shows to hit H-town in a while.

    There will be 12 comics doing their best 7 minute sets, so if you are hiring for Christmas parties or an event that may require a stand up come out and check the best that Texas has to offer.

    For more info call 713-333-8800 or post it!

    Thanks in advance!

    Are you looking for people to go on Thursday, or are you looking for people who have events lined up?

    Thanks Fat, they will have a great time!

    I will be performing and competing on the show. Our line-up as of now will be...

    Peggy Martinez- She's the house MC at the Comedy Showcase, nice looking and funny

    Mo Amer- Middle Eastern/Italian comic was recently on the cover of the Houston Press.

    Leroy Williams- "Hypnobro" is the only African American hypnotist in the country, he has most recently been seen on Steve Harvey's show "Big Time" and in Reliant energy commercials.

    Steve Hirst- From Manchester England, cutting british humor that translates to Americans/Texans very well.

    Bob Bickerstaff- Winner of the funniest person in Houston last year.

    Mike McCrae- Did Comedy Central's "Premium Blend" with me.

    Caroline Pickard- The Cajun Queen, dirty old lady!:D

    more to come, I will keep you posted.
