Good gods, y'all, there's
a panoply of nationally renowned comedians swarming all over Downtown and beyond next weekend, setting fire to stages and slaying audiences in those styles that have so endeared them to stand-up aficionados everywhere.
Jenny Slate!
Nick Offerman!
Nate Bargatze!
Hari Kondabolu!
Amanda Seales! And more and more and
more. The Paramount on Congress is the epicenter for this eighth annual takeover of Austin, but, really, it's a citywide deal and you should check
that Moontower website for an almost overwhelming flood of details. Note: The fest is almost sold out already, but the Satellite Badge that's still available will get you into the 50+ shows hosted in those satellite theatres or will "grant you access to the main acts in seats that have a suboptimal view."
