FRIDAY 7/22

 

Show: Nick DiPaolo Headline
Venue: Carolines on Broadway
Location:
1626 Broadway NYC
Time: 7:30 & 10pm
Description of Show and Lineup:

In this day of watered down comedy Nick Di Paolo’s brutally honest  performances remind us of what great stand up should be funny, socially relevant and a little bit reckless.  Originally a Bostonian, Nick honed his seething, sarcastic style in New York City.  His range has allowed him to perform on shows as tame as The Tonight Show, yet as edgy as HBO’s Young Comedians Special, Late Night with David Letterman, Jimmy Kimmel Live and Conan O’ Brien. He was twice nominated for an Emmy for his writing on HBO’s The Chris Rock Show. He has also had three half hour standup specials of his own on Comedy Central, a one hour Showtime Special called Raw Nerve, and a self released one hour special Another Senseless Killing. He was one of the stars on Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn and a stand out on many Comedy Central Roasts. Not limited to stand-up and writing, he has had acting roles on FX’s Louie, Inside Amy Schumer, The Sopranos and CK’s critically acclaimed Horace and Pete as well as many sitcoms. His strong political opinions and razor wit make him a perfect fit for talk radio as well. He’s a favorite on both Howard Stern and Opie and Jim Norton. He hosted his own show on New York’s 92.3 Free FM.  Presently, he hosts one of the most popular podcasts on iTunes, The Nick DiPaolo podcast.

Kick off the warm weather with Lacey and Buckels and their steamy crushes they tricked into being in the same room together to “do comedy”* at the very first ~sUmMeR fLiNG~ A “fling” implies “casual” and “chill” and “non committal” which describes Lacey and Buckels perfectly. They are NOT crazy teehee and are total guys’ girls lol who are too hot to care whether or not any of these comics have texted them back but are weirdly not models? Very cool. w/ crushes Colin Quinn Jo Firestone Will Miles & Julio Torres Idk they will see what happens it’s honestly not even a big deal *give them each at LEAST one sincere compliment or they will be kept onstage against their will, they were talking about it one time and violence is sort of whatever to them, totally unrelated but neither of them see what the big deal is about violence, so
