NYUCF leads with Belzer

The New York Underground Comedy Festival kicks off Saturday with a show hosted by Richard Belzer (who, according to Festival head Jim Mendrinos, “embodies the artistry and fortitude that every comic aspires to”). There follows ten days/nights of 50 or so shows in six or seven Manhattan venues.

Hey, who is that on the NYUCF website splash page? The third guy from the left? It’s the Male Half of the Staff. (Six comics on the front of the website and TMHOTS makes it on there? In a photo from three years ago when he hosted the Funniest Media Person in New York? Odd, to say the least!) We haven’t posted much about the NYUCF the past two years. But, then again, we haven’t been in it. Festivals we’re not in tend to fall through the cracks.
