The Sickest F***ing Stories I Ever Heard
Where: The Hideout Theatre
Date: 2007-08-16 21:00:00

The Sickest F***ing Stories I Ever Heard is an exercise in comedy vérité that’s as bluntly provocative as its title. Five comics play poker onstage, betting real money, drinking real beer and telling real sick stories. As Time Out NY puts it: “Imagine if the Algonquin Round Table were to trade Dorothy Parker and Robert Benchley for Howard Stern and Al Goldstein.” Tickets are $10 and can be purchased at the door. Tickets include a drink ticket. Our Line-Up: John Rabon (finalist Funniest Person in Austin Contest) Tiffany Janssen (burlesque performer with The Jigglewatts) Matthew Odam (writer/columnist) John Rabon (stand-up, host of Spite Club) and Chris Trew (improviser/nerdcore rapper) with host/dealer Asaf Ronen

Connick is currently on a national tour in support of his two new albums, Oh, My NOLA and Chanson du Vieux Carré.

Sin, salvation, sex, sanctification, so intertwined yet so separate." says Connick. "Jazz, gospel, brass band, rhythm and blues, country, funk aren't all the styles played in New Orleans," he emphasizes. "But they're the ones I wanted to play around with."
