    The HBO Comedy Festival is holding auditions at the Improv Comedy Theater (I-10@Silber) in Houston this Thursday at 10pm.

    I got a call today from one of the festival coordinators for help, I convinced the Improv to allow free admission, although there is still a 2 item minimum purchase(coke or whatever). I will be hosting the affair and it guarantees to be one of the hottest hour and a half comedy shows to hit H-town in a while.

    There will be 12 comics doing their best 7 minute sets, so if you are hiring for Christmas parties or an event that may require a stand up come out and check the best that Texas has to offer.

    For more info call 713-333-8800 or post it!

    Thanks in advance!

    Are you looking for people to go on Thursday, or are you looking for people who have events lined up?

    Mo Amer- Middle Eastern/Italian comic was recently on the cover of the Houston Press.

    Leroy Williams- "Hypnobro" is the only African American hypnotist in the country, he has most recently been seen on Steve Harvey's show "Big Time" and in Reliant energy commercials.

    Steve Hirst- From Manchester England, cutting british humor that translates to Americans/Texans very well.

    Bob Bickerstaff- Winner of the funniest person in Houston last year.

    Mike McCrae- Did Comedy Central's "Premium Blend" with me.

    Caroline Pickard- The Cajun Queen, dirty old lady!:D
