what to do?

the boy and i got back to nyc sunday night around 7pm with a hankering to do something besides staying in. i wasn't really into the idea of the yea yea yeas so we searched the internet and tony for other options. the boy read about a free comedy show at three of cups so we decided to check it out.

we got there just in time to nab good seats and a table. by the time we settled in with drinks and an order of food, the MC came onto the stage. his introduction was painfully un-funny and made me nervous for the impending line up and show in store. to my relief, each comedian was progressively more funny than the last and definately had many laugh out loud moments.

the group definitely varied in experience and personalities as evidenced by the different styles of delivery, level of interaction with the audience and overall effectiveness. while i've been to a handful of "professional" comedy shows and truly enjoyed them, there was something quite refreshing and raw about sunday's performances. i would definately go again. and $4 glasses of wine aren't so bad either.
