Last night at the Hidden House

by Brian McKim & Traci Skene on February 5th, 2009

We took I-10 into Phoenix proper last night, as the folks who run the Wednesday night open mike at Hidden House were gracious enough to allow The Male Half a five-minute spot in preparation for his sets at the Comedy & Magic Club this weekend.

The Male Half has a vicious head cold. The Female Half says his customary deadpan delivery bordered on comatose.

We bugged out shortly after The Male Half’s set was done– the better to recover for this afternoon’s flight to Los Angeles. (And we wanted to check up on The Female Half’s father whose middle finger was nearly crushed when The Male Half closed The Female Half’s father’s Cadillac trunk lid on it. Yee-owch!)

The Hidden House’s Wednesday night Comedy On Tap open mic night is a rollicking affair and the tiny room is often packed. (We would have provided you with photos, but our camera’s rechargeables had some sort of stroke.)

We thank the boys at H.H.– Steve, Myke, Kirk, Sean, Stu, et al– for making us feel welcome. (And, they said, we should tell anyone that is passing through PHX to stop on their Wednesday night sorieé and they’ll feel just as welcome.)
