forgotten fringe elements of our Pop Culture, will recreate the
magic of Rock Fantasy live and in the guise of the many animals
on the album. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

We are extremely
proud to announce the Vancouver Premiere of:
DRUNK IMPROV
A SCIENTIFIC EXPERIMENT INTO ALCOHOL’S EFFECT ON COMEDY
Is alcohol funny? How much is too much? These are the questions we will answer THURSDAY JULY 10TH @ THE WISE HALL.
2 IMPROV TEAMS, one that will take a shot of tequila every 2 minutes. The other team will remain as the sober control group. They will take turns making up scenes fueled by audience suggestions. THE GOAL IS TO FIND OUT, ONCE AND FOR ALL, IF ALCOHOL IS FUNNY OR NOT.
This is a stunt we pulled in Winnipeg in ’00 to disastrous results. This time we are filming the whole thing and making it into a movie. We are going to have a real-life scientist and a nurse and bouncers and…oh my God! YOU CAN”T MISS THIS! Please visit the Drunk Improv page and listen to the story of our first attempt documented by CBC RADIO.
Also joining us will be a real-life scientist! and a real-life
nurse!
THURSDAY JULY 10TH @ THE WISE HALL (1882 Adanac @ Victoria Dr.) 8PM DOOR,
9PM SHOW. TICKETS 8-12$ and if there are any tickets once the show starts,
they will be sold for 5$, but don’t chance it, this show will sell
out. **WARNING** This show won’t be funny after an hour and a half.
How can it be, really?
123 NEWS
Plans
are in the works to stage THE DRUNK IMPROV
one last time. This time the experiment will be even more intricate (with
a real life scientist!) and the whole thing will be filmed to be released
as a full-length independent movie. A camera crew will follow Paul and
Devin through the “campaign trail” of media interviews and
be with them through the challenges of putting together such a dangerous
show. The actual performance will be filmed by 3 different camera crews
to insure we capture every moment.
Filmmaker TONY B. will begin editing COWBELL: THE ULTIMATE COMEBACK? A
story documenting legendary hair rocker CLINT BELL as he tries to put
back his old band for a tour of high school gymnasiums. Anyone who caught
Clint Bell at Miss T’s in November will be anticipating this triumphant
film as much as we are. “Be cool, stay in school!”
HUGH PHUKOVSKY is currently working on new material for his sophomore album tentatively titled “PERMINANT ROUGH CROWD: Sleeveless in Seattle.” A live album to be taped in a Seattle dog kennel.
Please email us at [email protected] if you would like to be on our mailing list to be informed directly when shows are happening. A lot of the time in this city there is great stuff going on but you don’t find out about it until it’s too late. And sometimes, especially with Hugh, when an act is added to a bill at the last minute, it may not even make it to the EVENT page.
