The BBQ Comedy Show
by Egoslut on Jul.08, 2009, under Shows
Kris Dulgar helped put a new room together but the fantastic part about this is the inclusion of barbecue, the best combination of words since anal penetration. So come out to Vinyl and lets eat some flesh and then make people vomit it back up in laughter.
how to broadcast live video with your iPhone 3G
by Egoslut on Jul.06, 2009, under Blogging, Web Tech
Hey Internet! So this week I came across one of those web things that has completely obsessed me. Sort of like the first time you discover LOLcats. I learned how to live broadcast video from my iPhone to the internet. I put a couple of tweets up about it and have been barraged with requests on how to do this. So, I thought I would share my experience with you and show you what I did.
Last week I did a radio interview on WatercoolerTALK and while I was doing it the host, Paul, livestreamed the show out over Ustream. Now I had seen Ustream before because when I went there after the show to look at this, apparently, I had already signed up. So I started playing with it more and found that it is a riot to play with and dead simple to setup your own live webshow. Then, one night, while I was watching TV with my wife, I was absent-mindedly surfing on my phone and went to Ustream and noticed a link there to broadcast using your mobile. Now, I know it supports a variety of mobile devices but what I’m going to do is go through my experience setting up for the iPhone 3G. So hold onto your pantaloons because here we go.

Comedyworks (Open mic night)
by Egoslut on Jul.06, 2009, under Shows
I haven’t performed at Comedyworks since last fall I think. It is one of the most famous comedy clubs in Montreal and the open mic night there is always a blast. I have a bunch of new material to try out too. Monday night shows are also a vote show to try and get on the BOOM (Best of Open Mic) show at the end of the month. So come on down and show them how much you love me.
Comedy @ Le Studio
by Egoslut on Jul.04, 2009, under Shows
Performing at the sexiest venue in the city, Le Studio. It’s a mind-herniating new monthly comedy stage at the swanky Château Saint-Ambroise. Hosted by Peter Radomski. Should be lot’s of fun.
Holy Crap! the birth of a comedy show
by Egoslut on Jul.01, 2009, under Blogging, Comedy
Hey Internet! So, if you follow any of this regularly or have seen any of my other sites, you know that in my offline world I’m a stand-up comic. I have been doing it off and on for over 20 years but only in the past year or two have I really taken it seriously. Comedy is a fantastic outlet, personally. I love everything about it; the writing, performing, promoting, comedians themselves. Everything!
I got into it when I was in college. I have been performing in some way ever since I was a kid. I started with music. Later, I got into theatre which led to me going to college to get my theatre degree. While I was there I met my friend Ian Boothby, a brilliantly funny guy. He was doing stand up regularly at Vancouver’s original comedy venue, (continue reading…)
