The Business May 22nd 2013: The Dynamic Duo Edition

THESE GUYS.  Our guests this week are two genuine articles.  

It’s Cory Loykasek and Donnie Divanian! 

Cory Loykasek is an SF based stand-up comedian using laid back rants to take a high-brow look at low-brow issues.  He is a regular on the For The People Comedy Tour and in 2012 performed in SF Sketchfest, Bridgetown Comedy Festival, and Outside Lands.   Is Cory Funny?  A lot of cool people think so.  This one guy, Derrick, he was the JV quarterback at his division III high school, went to prom and everything, thinks Cory is ‘pretty fucking good.”

Donnie Divanian will beat you at tennis and then make you laugh like he didn’t just beat you at tennis. He has performed in SF Sketchfest and the SF Fringe Festival (receiving a best of the Fringe award). He is also in the comedy group We Are Nudes. In 2010 they appeared in the NY times.

Your regulars will be there mmmboping as well, Nato “Issac” Green, Sean “Taylor” Keane and Bucky “Zac” Sinister.  

Bring your $5 and get there early cause we sell out.

BYOBurrito and eat it.  Eat the whole damn thing.

The Business May 15th, 2013: The “HOBO YOU DIDN’T” Edition

We got our bindles tied to our sticks and we are ready for some rail splitting action!  This week’s guests are finer than a pot of Mulligan stew served by a hot lil bo-ette biscuit shooter.

We are tickled to welcome Jeff Seal, Crowned the Hobo Clown King in '86, '87 and '89.  He is an accomplished comic and clown, and a real delight.  

We are also pleased to have the ferociously funny Casey Ley!

Casey's comedy has been seen in festivals such as SFSketchfest, Bridgetown Comedy Festival in Portland, OR and the Moontower Comedy Festival in Austin, TX. He is the host and creator of the popular monthly stand-up show "This Feels Wrong" and a weekly comedy game show called "Mayhem Trivia." He's been featured on NPR and was voted the Bay Area's best comic by readers of SF Weekly in 2012

Also, a San Francisco favorite who has appeared on Last Comic Standing, The Late Late Show and in SF Sketchfest, Michael Meehan!

Michael is a self-taught comic, painter and sculptor. His art is forged from salvaged materials and a sense of the absurd.

Plus all your regulars, Bucky “Bindlesticks” Sinister, Nato “Paint Your Wagon” Green, Sean “Stack of Bones” Keane and Caitlin “Gandy Stiff” Gill.  

Grab $5 from your poke and get there early, we sell out!

BYOBurrito for your bazoo. 

The Business May 8th, 2013: The Imaginary Edition

“To know is nothing at all; to imagine is everything- plus RADIO!” Albert Einstein (and The Business).

This week, The Business makes believe with the Imaginary Radio team, Drennon Davis and Nick Stargu!

From his elaborate characters and sketches, to his provocative songs and animation, Drennon has made a name for himself as one of the most innovative minds in today’s comedy scene. His live performances of the Imaginary Radio Program combine live music and beat-boxing with one-man sketches into a show that the Los Angeles Comedy Bureau writes "not only lives up to its name, but exceeds expectation in what you could possibly think it is."

 

Nick Stargu is DJ REAL, a San Francisco-based alternative musical comedy act. Performing all original songs, complete with costume changes, bad dance moves, and interactive multimedia, DJ REAL’s live act has been likened to the Talking Heads, The Residents, and Steve Martin. With a wide range of influences, DJ REAL’s songs vary from hip-hop, to folk, to the bizarre.

They are not to be missed.  NEVER MISS THE BUSINESS.

Be early. We sell out.

Your regulars will also be there, “Make Believe” Sinister, Sean “Dreame” and Caitlin “You can’t tell me I can’t fly now get out of my way I’m jumping!” Gill.

$5.  Always cheaper than Iron Man and always in 3D.

BYOBurrito- your imagination needs brain food.
