If you go onto the Chicago Comedy Festival website, you’re greeted by a black screen with the two tiny words in the center: “go away”
It would seem that the Chicago Comedy Festival is no more.
It was a great festival in a great comedy town. Dan Carlson can be proud of what he did. We have no idea if he really has given up for good, but, if he has, we wanna thank him for throwing a great party and for emphasizing the standup comics in his get-togethers. We’ll try to get it together over the next few days and prep our Chicago Comedy Festival files so that they’re accessible to our readers. (We just got a new desktop– a Gateway 720GE with a gig of RAM and a 250-Gb HD!– so, we’re going to plunge back into editing video again, so it might be some time before we follow through!)
