Montrel Gazette interviews comedy couple

by Brian McKim & Traci Skene on January 21st, 2005

Our first night at the Comedy Nest is history. It’s the fourth Nest location we’ve performed at over the years. This one is in the old Forum (now called “The Pepsi Forum”), where the Canadiens usta play. It’s on the third floor. It’s a bizarre thing to be walking around a place where so much sports history took place. (In the middle of this cavernous retail and entertainment complex, they’ve recreated center ice, using terazzo, and they’ve sprinkled some of the actual Forum seats around the perimeter. Tres cool!)

The club itself is pretty. We’ll see how it feels under weekend show conditions tonight.

We did a phoner with Montreal Gazette columnist Bill Brownstein the day before we took off for Montreal. (A coupla weeks ago, we hooked up a Clapper to the lamp on the nighstand. As we conducted our interview, the speaker phone on that same nightstand made the lamp strobe. Very distracting, but somewhat comical!)

The article appeared Thursday on the front page of the Arts section. Nice. We bought a couple hard copies at the Provigo on Ste. Catherine; we’ll have the entire text up in our press section next week. For now, you can read the first 25 words or so online (or the whole thing, if you register!)

Comedians Brian McKim and Traci Skene agree there’s nothing like taking a shot at your spouse’s expense to get a crowd going. They do it all the time.
