NEWSy STUFF:
Friend of N’Sup, Pat Dixon, opened up for Dave Attell to kick off his
new Comedy Central tour here last week.. it was a great show. Dave had
good things to say about Nashville’s comedy scene in the Tennessean.
The quote above and the rest of the interview can be read here:

Nashville native Tim Northern was on Bob & Tom Radio Show again today..
looks like Mr. Northern is becoming a regular. If you don’t have Tim’s
comedy cd, it’s a must-have.. send me an email and I’ll see if I can’t
get you a copy on the cheap.
The N’Sup Road Trip to Atlanta to see the Comedians Of Comedy Tour with Patton Oswalt, Brian Posehn & Zach Galifianakis was a lot of fun. We’re trying to get them to visit Nashville soon.. and we’ll do more of these shuttle services in the future if there are quality shows in other areas that people are interested in.
NOTE: Michael Winslow will NOT be at Zanies this week.. Beth Donahue
is there all week instead.. and she’s with MangyDog.com’s Jesse Perry.. which is the greatest combination of comics ever. Go to Zanies this week and see why. I promise you: you will not be disappointed (unless you had your heart set on hearing fake machine gun noises for 45 minutes.. then, you’re screwed).
Some of the other big-timers who will be coming thru town this month:
Dana Carvey, Frank Caliendo, Kevin Pollak, Bill Engvall.. check
www.NashvilleStandUp.com for the details.
