L.C.S. UPDATE: RE-UPDATED!

by Brian McKim & Traci Skene on March 4th, 2007

(Editors note: When the occasional LCS nugget comes in over the cyber-transom, we’ll just put it at the top of this posting and make it float to the top.)

We hear that Sean Rouse advanced from the Hollywood “auditions.”

Someone named Dante posted the following on a comedy-related chatroom (we take no responsibility for the punctuation):

Last comic standing…..was awesome!

I won last night out of 34 killer comics…me, John Reep, Rick Overton, John Caponera, Dwayne Perkins and 2 female comics all moved on to the finals!!!! I won the $1000 Capital one audience choice award. However I was told that I would have won either way!!!!!!!!!

I am going to win the whole thing this year!!!!

Not sure if it’s authentic. Dante, by the way, is an ancient Italian name and it means “One who can’t quite grasp the subtleties of a non-disclosure agreement.”

This gives us pause: “…I was told I would have won either way.” What we have is a delightful stew of a contest and a reality show. A cockfight in Juarez probably has more integrity.

We like the fact that he named all the guy comics by first name and last name, but the others were “2 female comics.” EDITORS UPDATE: Thea Vidale and Becky Pedigo are rumored to be the “2 female comics” alluded to in the post.

The above allegedly took place at the Hollywood Improv……Stay tuned!!!!!!!!
