Old Hickory, Tennessee gave us the laid back, clean and clever comedy of noted Vandy fan Nate Bargatze. Since leaving Nashville, Nate has appeared on CMT Comedy Stage, Montreal’s Just For Laughs Festival “New Faces” Showcase, Comedy Central’s Live At Gotham, and Conan (twice!).

On October 17th, Nate taped a coveted Comedy Central Presents.. special at The Gerald W. Lynch Theater in New York City and it premiers this Friday, February 4th @ 11:30 EST (that’s 10:30 Central). Here’s a video Nate shot to promote the show:

..and here’s a preview of what you’ll see Friday:

Congratulations to Nate!

Be sure to tune in: Friday, February 4th @ 10:30pm (Central) on Comedy Central.

Nate Bargatze, Vandy fan

We meant to mention this earlier, but last week Comedy Central’s “Insider” blog named N’Sup one of “The 100 Best Comedy Twitters.” N’Sup is proud to be contributing something Comedy Central has called, “essential to anyone who wants to be kept abreast of his or her favorite comedian’s bowel movements.”

We’ve been all Mary Mack happy lately, but forgot to post the videos of Nashville’s own Nate Bargatze making his appearance on Comedy Central’s Live At Gotham. Enjoy:

The July 25, 2008 episode of Comedy Central’s “Live at Gotham” featured our good friend Mary Mack! Also appearing: Matt Braunger; Hannibal Burress; Owen Benjamin; Nigel Lawrence; Adam Devine; and host Daniel Tosh. That was a pretty good line-up.. did you miss it? Way to go. Here’s a few clips:

Ralphie was at Zanies in Nashville (or “Comedy City”, as our town is affectionately referred to by Nobody) earlier this month.. and if you saw any of those shows, you know how funny that guy is. If you didn’t get a chance to see Ralphie & friends then.. I’ve got news for you: Ralphie May is taping two different shows this weekend in Knoxville at the Tennessee Theatre for Comedy Central along with Lahna Turner and Nashville’s own Billy Wayne Davis.

This is huge.. I believe this is the first time Comedy Central has filmed two separate specials from one comedian in the same night. He’s not filming the same show in front of two audiences.. it’s totally different material. (That’s an impressive amount of funny ha-ha’s. I’ve been doing stand-up for over five and a half years, and I think I’ve written approximately two and a half jokes. Imagine cranking out TWO Comedy Central specials in one night!)

If you want tickets, order them now! Knoxville loves Ralphie and they will pack that theater both times without any problem. Get your tickets in advance by clicking here.

Tell ‘em NashvilleStandUp.com sent ya. They won’t give a crap, but tell ‘em anyway!

Ralphie May – Sat. April 22 – Tennessee Theatre – Knoxville @ 7pm & 9:30pm
