Hey friends, Episode #103 of "Behind The Funny with Chet Wild" is now out... it's basically a highlight reel from the showcase I hosted last Thursday at 'The Comedy Club' in Rochester.  I received a lot of positive feedback about Episode #102 with "The Bob"... so if you want more of him, I'm sure you'll enjoy his appearance in this episode.  Episode #104 has already been put together and features Mike Dambra, so be on the lookout for that!   *NOTE: I took the original Episode #103 down as I made the mistake of posting clips of everyone's performances without gathering their explicit written permission which became an issue for one of the comics.... wah-wah.  A new revised edition has been posted on the blog above which also includes previews of Episodes 104, 105 & 106... enjoy!

Here's a picture of some of the comics from the showcase.  Thank you to everyone who came out, it was another 100+ audience turnout and the comedy (as you can see in the video above) was great!  The show still ran a little long, so I'll be tweaking the next one a little to keep the show around 90 minutes long (this one was 2.5 hours in length).... call-outs to be booked in advance for the September showcase are out now and due to me by 5pm on Tuesday, September 1st.  Comics - get all the details by joining the facebook group. 

This Wednesday is also the big kick-off show, "Rust Belt Comedy Presents: Open Mic Comedy Night at Merge".... 9:30 sign-ups, 10pm show... free to attend.  If you haven't been to Merge before, it's a fantastic venue and should provide for some great nights of comedy.  For more info, join the facebook group. 

Lastly, I have a few calendar updates - including some shows I've been added onto opening for Rich Vos... how sweet is that?

September is shaping up to be a kick-ass month of comedy as I'm on the dais for the Roast of Chris Scherr, headlining The 5 Shots Comedy Show, launching a new open mic in Buffalo, not to mention shows with Rich Vos and Jim Florentine.  I'll catch ya at a show soon!
