Okay, so I haven't been plaguing you with what a fantastic time we had in the Northwest, hitting Canada and then slamming it again by going to the Montreal Fringe Festival. We apparently can't get enough of Canada and all I hear from the Great White North is "oh Fresh Meat, why don't you ever call? You only ever call when you want something." It's true, Canada, we wanted your love, you gave it and we left a note by the night stand because we got 8 hours to drive in the morning. But we'll be back. Promise.

Now we're on to Florida for the fantastic Gulf Coast Comedy Festival and then back North to the land of a thousand lakes for the Minnesota Fringe Festival. Right? It's the land of a 1000 lakes? Did I mess up that license plate slogan? I think it was an AP US History requirement to know states, capitals and their plate slogan. Just so you'd know what to say when you drove into that state with your loving companion, smile, take a deep breath and say, "Viriginia...it's for lovers." Then, when she' s done swooning, you'd silently thank AP US History for that glorious moment in your life and for scoring a 4 though your college didn't accept the credit. No matter. She's swooning. It was all worth it, wasn't it?

I could keep going. So why don't you just check the Calendar in the meantime. You know where it is.

[8/2/06 Minnesotians, I am aware it's 10,000 lakes. More so now than ever. I love you all anyway and your excessive lake awareness.]

Duders and Duderinos: The F-Meat is in SEATTLE! Actually we're in Bellingham, a town two hours from Seattle! Woooo!! We're being hosted by The Cody Rivers Show for their first annual Sketchingham! If you never heard of these guys you need to blow $300 on a ticket to the sweet little heaven called Bellingham and check these guys out at the Idiom Theatre. They make sketch a true theatrical art. Mike and Andrew have very kindly put us up in their home for three weeks.

Why three weeks do you ask?

What a great question. Cody Rivers and Fresh Meat will be touring after Sketchingham through the great Northwest. If you know any folks in Vancouver or Seattle, send them our way. We'll be performing at various spaces, but I'm compiling a complete list now.

Folks, lots of great news. We've been accepted to the Montreal Fringe, Indianapolis Fringe and Minnesota Fringe Festival. Then there's the D.C. Comedy Festival, jamming with other hil-freakin'-larious groups that it's ridinky-donk-ulous.

Also, we're venturing into new performance modes. Starting in March we'll be performing in the New York Improv's newest cabaret space as part of The Best Show in THE WORLD. It'll be a Fresh Meat wedding dress: something old, something new, something gay, something blue. Or however that saying goes. It's the Improv. We'll make something up.

A new year and plenty of space to fill up on the newsboard.

Check it out, we've got a PIT show next week Jan. 20th at 8p.m with the irascible Richard Jones and Gay Christ Figures in Cinema. Come support this excellent real estate, with much thanks to Alex. Sad news about Juvie Hall closing, we give a big shout-out to Erik, Joe et al... I guess you gotta let some things go to allow space for new opps to enter. Which is why I sacrificed a hobo to appease the comedy gods.

Guess it worked. We've got a busy year ahead. Recently accepted to the Montreal Fringe Festival, heading to Boston for NACA and Seattle traipsing with The Cody Rivers Show. I'm back on website duties, because Ron Feldman (michael's father) needs his daily spoonful of Fresh Meat. Hi Ron.
