Dan Cummins - http://www.dancummins.tv/

“Cummins’ comedy runs more on bizarre than classical, more on oddity than traditional comedy. And thank goodness for that — good comedy thrives on the new, on the fresh. Too many comedians, after all, articulate what “everybody else is thinking.” Cummins says what nobody else but him is thinking.” – The Inlander’s review of Crazy with a Capital F, by Daniel Walters

In the last five years, Dan has released two critically and commercially successful CDs on Warner Brothers Records, Revenge is Near, and Crazy with Capital F, both debuting in the top 10 of the Billboard Comedy Charts, and both making numerous year end top 10 lists, including Itunes Rewind’s Best Comedy CDs of 2010.

He’s also toured relentlessly, bringing his jokes to over 200 colleges, clubs, theaters, and the world’s most prestigious comedy festivals, including two trips to the Montreal Comedy Festival. In addition to headlining live shows from Maine to Alaska, Dan’s also made numerous televised stand-up appearances, including performances on The Tonight Show, The Late, Late Show, Last Comic Standing, and numerous Comedy Central programs, including both a half-hour special, Comedy Central Presents Dan Cummins, and an hour-long comedy special, Crazy with a Capital F. One of the most prolific writers on the national scene, Dan continues to craft new jokes and stories, and bring them to countless audiences in his quest to build a fan base large enough to pack clubs and theaters in whatever town he chooses to travel to, just to hear whatever he has to say.

So do yourself a favor, and start listening.

John Mulaney - http://www.johnmulaney.com/

"It would be painful to watch John Mulaney relive his childhood humiliations, if it weren't so hilarious."--ROLLING STONE, Comedy's New Wave: Eight Rising Stars Guaranteed To Keep You Laughing For Years.

Vaguely familiar to the millions who watch SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE, LATE NIGHT WITH JIMMY FALLON, JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE, CONAN and more, John Mulaney has become somewhat more recognizable with the January 28 Comedy Central broadcast and January 31 DVD/digital release of his new stand-up special NEW IN TOWN.

A wizened comedy veteran at 29 years of age, Mulaney began his career in New York’s East Village as part of the two-man “Oh Hello Show” with comedian Nick Kroll. He has since performed everywhere from Ireland, to Australia to Grand Isle, Nebraska. He’ll kind of perform anywhere. He was named one of VARIETY'S 10 COMICS TO WATCH and one of ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY'S COMEDIANS ON THE RISE in 2008--the same year he began working at SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE where he's since appeared as a WEEKEND UPDATE correspondent and co-created such characters as “Stefon” with Bill Hader.

NEW IN TOWN is Mulaney's second Comedy Central stand-up special and album. His first, THE TOP PART, was released in 2009 and was recently hailed as "criminally overlooked" and " "a finely-crafted piece of work" by THE HUFFINGTON POST.

Should be a great time! See you there! GO LEOPARDS!
