The Business February 27th 2013: The Songs to O’Shea By Edition- Now with 2x the Kevin!

Image
There are Kevins, and there are O’Sheas.   But there is only one Kevin O’Shea.   At least there is only one that we know of.   I mean the odds are good that there is someone else that has both the name “Kevin” and the name “O’Shea”, but that guy (or rather unfortunate girl) would never be the Kevin O’Shea that Kevin O’Shea is.    This week, we all Kevin to the O’Shea beat. Established in 1984 following the mergers of Steven and Cathy O’Shea, Kevin O’Shea has been one of San Francisco’s leading manufactures of mirth, laughter, hilarity and all around good times! Kevin has been commonly described as clever, absurd, awkward but in a funny way and too smart for his own good. He has been seen on the Independent Film Chanel and ComedyCentral.com. He is a favorite of comedy festivals such as: The SF Sketch Fest and the Bridgetown Comedy Festival. Go see him now as his 4 th quarter productivity has never been higher! And more KEVIN! Kevin Camia will join us this week as well. He has been f

The Business February 20th 2013: The Koll into Diamonds Edition

Alex Koll.  Original Business Man.  Air Guitar Demigod. General All Around Incredible Human Being. San Francisco has been lucky to have him, but it's time to let the Koll Diamond shine somewhere new.  New York!  He's moving to the Big Apple, but not before The Business sends him off in style. Joining us for the big Bon Voyage will be Sam Tallent.  Out all the way from Denver, Sam has been described as 'the Black Flag of comedy' and a zine in Denmark said 'Sam is the surreal voice of an earnestly silly generation'. Reggie Watts, TJ Miller, Kyle Kinane, Sean Patton and other quality gigglesmiths have worked with Sam and not complained to management. We are also pleased to announce the return of Bobby Joe Ebola and the Children MacNuggits!  Difficult to categorize, awkward on a flyer, and impossible to forget, the “pretty songs about terrible things” of Bobby Joe Ebola have become the soundtrack of the “Great Recession” & civilization’s “Slow Apocalypse”.

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY! For the same-sex B-School couples out there, who no doubt have their own set of challenges!

The Business- The Mrs. Doubtfire 3- The Bitch is Back And This Time She Means BUSINESS Edition

Image
This week, The Business welcomes guests from sorta near and pretty far! Visiting us from the capital city of our glorious state are two golden boys. John Ross was born to be a comedian. In that he was born addicted to drugs. Geez John, way to be born with a silver spoon… IN YOUR PARENTS' HANDS (I know, that was a little strong. I just wanted to prepare you for the subject matter of the evening’s event, which may include junkie parents, spoons and needles. Coincidentally, John Ross played bass for both Junkie Parents and Spoons and Needles). Nick Aragon has the funny bone of the Fellowship of the Ring in his DNA. The comedy is strong with this one. He really beams up the funny. I’m just gonna keep mixing nerdy metaphors until the hate mail really starts flowing). And all the way from London, we are always happy to have the stellar Scott Capurro on the bill. Described by San Francisco Weekly (free press, edited by lesbians and designed by trannies with large hands and hidden ag

The Business February 6th 2013, The "SF Sketchfest means BUSINESS" Edition

Image
The best time of year is here once more! Christmas? Heck no, we drank our way right through though the holidays (Bucky was drowning in Cherry Coke Zero). Summer time? Nope, too sticky. Also, The Business has core competencies, not competent cores, so bikini season is right out for us. Valentine’s Day? Gross. Who are you, anyway? Ug. It’s Sketchfest time! The best time of all! When comics from all over the country come to San Francisco for three weeks full of incredible shows!! The Business is very happy to be a part of this annual cavalcade of comedy once more, and we have some of our favorite guests on for the FESTivities. Chris Knutson is joining us, he is the winner of ACME's Funniest Person in the Twin Cities award in  2010. Plus Joe Tobin, a comedian, writer and Flyers fan based in our own back yard! We are also happy to have SF star turned LA sensation, Drennon Davis. From his elaborate characters and sketches, to his provocative songs and ani
