Zanies’ All-Star Gary Dull Benefit Show

Wednesday, May 5th – 7:30pm
Zanies; 2025 8th Ave. South; Nashville
(facebook event)

Wednesday Zanies Comedy Showplace presents a special show featuring Mike Speenberg with Mark Anundson, TC Cope, Gary Dull, Brad Edwards, Donnie Pollard and Chad Riden. That’s a pretty good lineup and it’s all for a good cause.

Gary Dull is a comedian based out of Nashville who is as country as he could be and funny as hell. Gary had been a roofer by trade.. and when the housing crisis hit and construction projects dried up so did a lot of his business. He recently had some surgery and can’t get on a roof now.. so he’s been doing as many comedy shows as he can. Meanwhile, the details of his personal life sounds like a country music song.

Gary is a great guy and a funny comic, so we’ve tried to band together to help him out a little. Wednesday, the proceeds from the door at Zanies will go to Gary. Please come out and laugh and support one of our own in his time of need. Tickets are just $10 and are available now online or by calling Zanies box office at 615-269-0221.

The Comedy Roast Of Gary Dull

Monday, May 10th – 7pm
Spanky’s Sports Bar & Grill; 330 Welch Road; Nashville
(facebook event)

Laughing makes things a little bit easier to deal with even if you lost everything or know some one who has … We may not have lost everything ourselves but we could have friends that did … including a life … but to be alive and laughing we are to be thankful & helpful to others.

Gary Dull is the guest of honor Monday, May 10th at Spanky’s. There will be drink specials and the dais will be done just like the Tuesday open mic night – show up and go up with a sign-up sheet circulating before the show. Roasts are always fun / painful / fun again and this one is sure to be extra special as we raise money for Gary.

This week doesn’t look too bad for stand-up comedy in Nashville. We’re lucky enough to have several heavy hitters in town and one of these great shows is even a breast cancer benefit.. so there’s no guilt in going out and having a good time:
