Rock & ROFL and Variety SHAC in NYC

Posted by Maximum Fun on 29th April 2008


In case you haven’t noticed on our Live page, The Sound of Young America is proud to be sponsoring two monthly live shows in New York City.

The first is Variety SHAC at the UCB Theater. Shonali Bhowmik, Heather Lawless, Andrea Rosen and Chelsea Perretti are four of the funniest women in New York, and each month they present a pastiche of standup, short film and music. I’ve seen the show here in LA, and it’s fantastic.

The next SHAC is Thursday night at 9:30, and features Jon Glaser (Conan, Human Giant, etc) and Greg Johnson. That’s a lot of entertainment for just five buckaroos.

The second is Rock & ROFL, a combination comedy/rock show that’s put together by Klaus Kinski and Brooklyn Vegan. Comedy runs from 9-10, then a couple of bands rock your ass off. This month’s show is Monday, May 5th at Piano’s in NYC. Among the comics making you ROFL will be John Mulaney, who I was lucky enough to see at the Project Breakout show at Comix last year — and he knocked me out. You can also see The Acorn and War on Drugs, two very highly-regarded rock bands. And it’s ten bucks! You can’t lose!

But wait… what if it got EVEN BETTER?

We’ve got two pairs of tickets for Rock & ROFL to GIVE AWAY to two lucky Max Funsters. Just email me your name and contact info, plus your favorite TSOYA interview. That’s it! I’ll pick two winners tommorow.
