HBO's Fest website/A reader has a list of fests!

by Brian McKim & Traci Skene on April 13th, 2005

Just got an email from friend of SHECKYmagazine.com Larry-bob telling us of the existence of HBO’s website touting their recently-announced Las Vegas-situated fest in Noveber. Hit HERE to read all about it. (Oooh! Those HBO folks have done two subtle and significant things: They have named their festival “T.C.F.,” short for The Comedy Festival, which leaves no doubt that they plan to supplant that little confab in Montreal as the premiere comedy festival in the English-speaking world. Secondly, they managed to snag the URL http://www.thecomedyfestival.com, which means they’re serious!)

Also in that Larry-bob email was a link to his list of information on comedy festivals, purported to be exhaustive (and we believe him… and if we find anything missing, we’ll send it along to him)! Click HERE to be taken to Larry-bob’s fest info list. Note: Larry-bob, who runs qcomedy.com, has also included helpful asterisks, which denote those fests that are, for lack of a better term, queer-friendly! (Which means, “that festival has included queer comedians in the past” and that no asterisk, merely means that qcomedy is not certain!)

Love that Larry-bob! (Say, wasn’t that a series from the early 60’s? Starring Bob Cummings?)
