Hear it goes… http://ramsheadtavern.com/blog/comedy-like-to-hear-it-hear-it-goes/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=comedy-like-to-hear-it-hear-it-goes http://ramsheadtavern.com/blog/comedy-like-to-hear-it-hear-it-goes/#comments Wed, 27 May 2009 21:26:15 +0000 Chester http://www.ramsheadtavern.com/blog/?p=1186 So basically, David Alan Grier is coming. Coming to Rams Head Live to perform a full length stand-up comedy routine and the first thing that comes to mind is that I can sing along with the theme song to In Living Color to this day. “Let’s take a trip and zip on a dream, ride with a guide on a funky scene…”…….”no need to hold your remote control, chill. This show’s got soul….”

And even though I wasn’t supposed to be watching (or tuning into most shows on the new-at-the-time FOX network) because my mommy said the content was “too mature”, my sister and I would sneak into the guest room to watch Calhoun Tubbs perform an endless playlist of limited creativity:

David Alan Grier has since been a Comedy Central favorite. He appeared regularly on Crank Yankers and was honored to host the stand-up variety, Premium Blend. Most recentlly, Grier is busy tellin’ it like it is as the lead anchor on Comedy Central’s Chocolate News. The new show and new millenium has brought a fresh entourage of characters. One of our personal favorites, Phat Man.

What will Grier bust out live? The man does so many impressions, I wonder which we’ll be blessed with: Al Sharpton, Clarence Thomas, Colin Powell, Ike Turner? With the recent Star Trek remake, I’m hoping for a little Leonard Nimoy. But I’ll settle for some Marion Barry or Maya Angelou. I mean, who does impression of Maya Angelou… seriously.

Be there: Friday, July 10th at Rams Head Live.
