Asssscat will be the Funniest Thing at Bumbershoot

When we lived in Los Angeles, we would spend our Saturday evenings in a small theatre watching two shows of "Beer, Shark, Mice" with, among others, the janitor on Scrubs and Champ Kind. Yeah, that show was really funny, but nothing compared to what would follow—Asssscat. We'll say it again because we don’t even give a flying fudge, Asssscat.

Made up of the four original members of Upright Citizens Brigade (and this guy), Asssscat was an hour-long improv show that changed the face the comedy as we know it. (Yes Seattlest Jack, the hilarity from the jokes will cause you to pee in your pants). The show has changed its format and cast a smidge, but we've heard that it is still the funniest thing you'll ever lay your lookin' balls on.

Geez, it's too bad that you're not rich (desperate) enough to live in Los Angeles, because you'll never see them, and you will never fully understand.

Oh wait, you're in luck because Asssscat is coming to Bumbershoot this weekend.

You see, Bumbershoot is more than just a collection of boring bands that everyone loves until they become too mainstream; there is a ton of comedy as well, and some art or dance or something.

So while your friends are all seeing The Shins see Asssscat, see David Cross and Todd Barry in Tinkle, see the stand-up comedy of Zach Galifiankis, just see comedy. Some of the funniest people in the country are here to make you laugh so go, go, go. Besides, the lines are shorter and there will be no dancing hipsters next to you.
