Visit from G-ville's own Skinny White Comic

by Brian McKim & Traci Skene on January 15th, 2007

Can’t post long… making the transition between apartments… we can say that we had the pleasure of meeting David Lee Nelson this past weekend while we were gigging at the Greenville Laff Trax club. Nelson was in town (his hometown, Greenville, SC) in anticipation of the upcoming appearance of The Skinny White Comics show at downtown Greenville’s Coffee Undergound tonight and tomorrow night and the subsequent run of the SWC at the Charleston Comedy Festival later this week.

We chatted in the Crowne Plaza lobby (while the Eagles flamed out on the TVs behind the bar) and found out that Nelson, who currently resides in NYC, produced the Skinny tour and it features Isaac Witty and Amy Schumer. We also found out a lot about the Spoleto Festival, which we were only vaguely aware of up until Saturday night. (We were also totally unaware of the Charleston Comedy Festival!)

We noticed the ad for the SWC dates in the local alterna-rag and were delightfully suprised when Nelson popped into the house. What he is doing, in producing this comedy show in various alternative venues and fests, is a verrrry Shecky thing to do. Click on any of the above links to find out more!
