I'm at COMIX in NY all weekend with the amazing Christian Finnegan!. A Poem.


If you're a loser and want to feel like you win again,

Then come to Comix and see me with Christina Finnegan

He's the Headliner and I am the middler

He's very metro and I'm a lady diddler.


He's been on TV and I been in movies

Finnegan, Varnado, Hi-fives and boobies.

Christian is his name… and my religion.

We both like comic books and indecision


So see you at Comix, Thursday through Saturday


I promise not to rap*

COMEDY CONCERT FILM JUNE 22 TUES - ME Direct! You watch!

Hey everyone!   It's Victor Varnado here!  I hope you get a chance to come to the concert portion of this comedy film I am directing!  Many great comedians that you would have to pay big bucks to see normally.  If you are in NYC then make a special trip!

 

Here's the info!

 

___________________________________________________________

 

That’s right! – One of New York City’s best comedy shows, TELL YOUR FRIENDS!, is becoming a movie!

Here is a special message from the creator of the show, Liam McEneaney:

“HEY GANG;

You read that right. For the next two Mondays, TYF! at Lolita will go dark as we gear up for the filming of our first ever concert movie experience.

We are finally going to capture everything you have loved about our little basement show in one major motion picture.

Some of your favorite performers will be on-hand to film their acts; KURT BRAUNOHLER & KRISTEN SCHAAL, REGGIE WATTS, CHRISTIAN FINNEGAN, LEO ALLEN, ROB PARAVONIAN, and our house band A BRIEF VIEW OF THE HUDSON. And as usual, your humble host will be LIAM McENEANEY

You're going to get event invites as soon as Facebook stops being a jerk.

I know the name of the show is usually a suggestion, but for this show we're going to need as great of a crowd as possible to both fill the room and support with the kind of good energy and positive vibery that has made you guys one of the favorite audiences for some of the biggest names in comedy.

In a way, YOU will be the biggest star of the movie. Specifically, in the way that doesn't pay you residuals. So please, please, come yourself and don't forget to forward this via e-mail, to post this on Facebook, to Tweet it, and to TELL YOUR FRIENDS!

Thank you for your years of support. Here's to many many more years together.

- LIAM McENEANEY”

Interview Prep

Well, om getting ready for the first day of shooting on my new movie... Did we talk about that? The new movie is www.tellyourfriendsmovie.com

Should be loads of fun. In order to save money, I will be directing and playing cinematographer on some of the interview sections. I was a bit nervous, but I think the first test shoot came out great. Here is a frame from the shoot with our reluctant subject Myq Kaplan.




Thank you Canon HDSLR cameras!
