[Noisebridge-discuss] Thursday, June 14th: Indie Dev Show and Tell/Geek Comedy Over at the MADE

[Chris Barylick]

Ladies and gentlemen, we've got two really cool things coming up next Thursday night over at the MADE:

First, at 6:30, we'll be hosting Indie Dev Show and Tell, an event where local video game programmers come in to show off the games they're working on. Feel free to come by and see what others are working on or bring your own stuff to the table and there shall be awesomeness therein.

Then, there's the main event: 

On Thursday, June 14th, no less than FIVE (cinco) of the best geek-oriented comics in the Bay area will come together for one amazing night of stand up comedy. These five, their brains packed with video games, manga, anime, science fiction, bad horror movies, technology, pop culture, the sheer horror of dating and anything else that happens to be bouncing around in their frontal lobes, will bring you 90 minutes of funny as if their lives depended on it.

The Lineup:
- Mike Drucker: A geek at heart, Mike combines high energy, self-deprecation and video games with everything else in his life to become a Bay area favorite. Senor Drucker has written for Saturday Night Live, The Onion newspaper, The Onion News Network on Comedy Central, Late Night With Jimmy Fallon, McSweeney’s, Nintendo, College Humor, The ESPY Awards, and the PBS Mark Twain Awards. 

- Ivan Hernandez: One of the seminal nerd comics in the Bay area, Mike's favorite topics include food, comic books and women (or any intersection of the three) within his act. He's played venues such as the Florida Improvs and the Purple Onion, has been part of the Nerd Comics Tour and is freaking amazing.

- Leslie Small: The girl who shall not be underestimated, Leslie combines amazing energy, pop culture, the terrors of dating and the horrors of technology to make for a great performer (and recent headliner at the Purple Onion). 

- Chris Barylick: A recent transplant to the Bay area from Washington, D.C. and founder of the Geek Comedy Tour, Chris combines high energy, video games, technology, the horrors of dating and is afraid of popsicles.

- Erikka Innes: The founder of the amazing "Geek Comedy Night" for the Bay area, Erikka proves that the ladies can be nerdy and awesome, no matter what.

When: Thursday, June 14th, 8 PM.

Where: The MADE (Museum of Art and Digital Entertainment), 610 16th St.
Suite 230
Oakland, CA 94612

Dial "#0230" on the box to get in.

Price: Suggested $10.00 donation to the MADE and tip the comics if you feel like it...they need any form of love and/or positive feedback if it's available.

BYOB: Go for it, but please be 21 or over if you're going to drink.

Why: Because these are some of the best nerd comics in the area, their brains are swimming with geekdom and comedy tends to rock.
