Win Free Tickets: Jackasses Of Comedy @ Zanies 3/9, 3/10


Friday March 9th and Saturday March 10th, The Jackasses Of Comedy bring their snarky remarks, slander and slams to Zanies Comedy Showplace in Nashville. Doing a series of late-show-only performances (9:45pm on Friday & 11:15pm on Saturday), the Jackasses probably aren’t the best choice for your next church group outing.. but if you like politically incorrect, socially irresponsible, adult-themed stand-up – put down the bong and come out to the show.
The line-up for these shows includes “The Tennessee Tramp” Janet Williams, “America’s Favorite Comedian Of All Time” Chad Riden, “Improvisational Genius” Jesse Perry, and “Token Minority Comedian So It’s Not Just Whiteys” Damian Anaya. The Nashville Scene recently wrote, “Las Vegas has the Rat Pack, and Tennessee has this loose consortium of stand-up comedians.” Leave it to the Scene to encapsulate the sharp-tongued, anti-establishment spirit of the Jackasses Of Comedy with such a contemporary, hip reference and a word like “consortium”. Sigh. Regardless, they’re right.. the Jackasses are pretty much the modern-day Frank Sinatra – Dean Martin – Sammy Davis, Jr. – Peter Lawford and Joey Bishop’s of the state. Come on out to check out Chad Riden’s creepy glass eye.
Want tickets? Register now! (EDIT: Registration has ended.)

We’ll give away two (2!) sets of two (2!) tickets to each of the two (2!) shows. Winners will be announced right here on Thursday, March 8th.. and will be notified by email.

12/23: Jackasses of Comedy @ Cafe Coco


NashvilleStandUp.com is giving away a pair of two tickets to see the Jackasses of Comedy Saturday, December 23rd @ 9pm at Cafe Coco in Nashville. Enter now to win: (EDIT: Registration is over)
December 20, 2006 UPDATE:
This show got the Nashville Scene’s comedy critic’s pick for the week:

COMEDY
THE JACKASSES OF COMEDY
Las Vegas has the Rat Pack, and Tennessee has this loose consortium of stand-up comedians, who’ve been alternating gigs in Knoxville and Nashville, with an occasional side trip to beautiful downtown Jackson. It’s a revolving lineup, with this Dec. 23 Cafe Coco laughfest featuring old reliables Jesse Perry and Chad Riden along with newer performers Rob Haynes and Spencer Ashmun (all of a decidedly precocious 15 years old). The fun begins at 9 p.m., and if you’ve made a serious dent in the holiday shopping, this might be a good spot to treat yourself to a brew and some cathartic chuckles. Call 321-2626 or visit nashvillestandup.com.

The Jackasses Of Comedy in Jackson, TN

Last night the Jackasses of Comedy spread their sweet, sweet jackassery all over South Street comedy club in Jackson, Tennessee.

This weekend’s shows feature Rob Haynes, Chad Riden, Jesse Perry and Billy Wayne Davis.. and if you’re there tonight you just might bump into Corey Reppond and Monty.

Last night, Jesus made a special guest appearance.. before you get too excited about that, you should know that he was drunk and beligerent and got thrown out of the club. At some point Jesse Perry said, “Jesus, shut the fuck up. I never thought I’d say that..” We’ll put video clips up soon-ish. There’s still tickets available for the 9:30 show tonight.. hope to see you there.

Is that a sparkle in his eye or is he just confused? With his innocence and friendly demeanor Mitch quickly engages the audience and then catches them off guard with his mixture of mischievous dialog and off color comments. While laughing at observations only Mitch can get away with we are left wondering if he truly understands what he just said. We never really know.
Mitch has been showcasing his talent to rave reviews for the past 10 years. Since then both appreciative audiences and comedy executives have made the same observation about Mitch’s rise to stardom, “It’s just a matter of time.” Well his time has come. After numerous spots on both the “Late Show with David Letterman” and the “Tonight Show with Jay Leno” Mitch is quickly establishing himself as a comedic star. In addition Mitch is one of the few comedians to have ever appeared on “Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist” twice.
An invitation to the prestigious Montreal Comedy Festival this year can only mean more exciting things to come. The Hollywood Reporter also named Mitch as one of their best bets for future fame. He is not retarded.
See for yourself why this unique act has been earning rave reviews wherever he goes.

Also appearing tonight only..
Chad Riden
The Nashville Scene’s Martin Brady recently wrote, “One of Nashville’s staunchest promoters of comedy, Riden is also a pretty funny guy in his own right. His aggressive, angry-young-man stance of a few years ago has been leavened somewhat, since Riden more recently entered the world of marriage and fatherhood. His observations on the domestic sphere teeter amiably on the edge, but when he wants to, Riden can still zing pop culture, the media and American life in general with incisive wit.”

T.C. Cope
Since dedicating his heart to being a comedian, T.C. has touched people everywhere with the message, “Laughing is Living ” as a technique for survival. As a child, when family gatherings became a time to act silly and onerous, T.C. figured, “I can live with that”. When young and old friends came over to hear local imitations, T.C.
figured, ‘“Laughing is Living” and everybody can live with that’.
