It's James Adomian, in NYC and L.A.!
(Why do these cities want to abbreviate so differently? NYC hates dots, but L.A. has to have them, lest it be confused with Louisiana. Nice cold open, huh? God fuck me.)
Anywhichway, I’ll soon be hopping back and forth, across venues and time zones, like some kinda less spectacular form of space lightning! Might add or subtract shows — check back here hourly!

Denver show with Grawlix, Friday 1/27!
grawlixcomedy:
If there’s one thing we at the Grawlix are about, it’s championing bold, right wing rhetoric. Three cheers for Lord Santorum! May the United States follow your intelligent design all the way to the streets of Tehran!
But if there are two things that the Grawlix is about, the other would…

Sale - Moving to China
All of these items are readily available in China - so it would be redundant to take them with us when we move there. To Beijing. The capital city of CHINA.
