Rich Vos/June 17,2017/Burlington,VT

This was my first Rich Vos show. I had heard his name here and there over the years,but I had never paid attention to him. And the tickets were half-price,so I figured I would give him a try. My pal Josh attended the show with me,and we were seated right at the front of the stage.

After the so-so female opening act,out came Mr. Vos. Fairly quickly I realized he would incorporate me into the show. He joked about my cargo shorts and wondered out loud if I had a dead girl tied to a rocking chair in my basement. (Among other things.) He joked with other people,too. I was just RIGHT THERE so I was an easy target. I don't take any of that stuff seriously,and I was happy to be the butt of his jokes.

After the show,Rich was selling his new CD in the lobby. I bought a copy and got a photo with him. Check out Rich Vos if you get the chance. Below my ticket stub is my photo with him.

Brian Posehn/June 3,2017/Burlington,VT

I almost didn't go to this show. My pal Bryan told me about it a few days before,so I checked out Posehn on YouTube. Liking what I saw,I decided to buy a VIP ticket online that day. Good thing I did.
 It's hard to describe Mr. Posehn. He's known as a "heavy metal nerd" comedian. His comedy is surreal and self-deprecating and more. This is a guy who must be seen to be understood. After the show Brian was hanging out in the lobby of the Vermont Comedy Club. So my pals decided to go and chat with him for a bit while I hung out in the background. A very nice guy and extremely funny.
 Below my ticket stub is a photo from that night in front of the Vermont Comedy Club.
