Make us Number One on the BayList!

It's awards season, and Roosters is on the campaign trail, mixing metaphors left and right! :-)

Once again we're up for a BayList award. Last year we took first place in the Comedy Club category, and we're looking for a repeat! This year the category is adorably named "Best Place to Laugh Till You Cry." That's Roosters, baby! Just this past weekend someone wrote on a comment card after the Danny Bevins show, "I have cheek cramps!" We're hoping those were facial cheek cramps induced by laughter and not something more sinister.

The SF BayList features more than 10,000 of the Bay Area's best local businesses. Eligible businesses are nominated by readers, and winners are determined by popular vote. That means YOU choose the Best of the SF Bay Area!

YOU choose the Best! YOU choose Roosters! Click here to vote for Roosters now. You have to register, but it's quick and easy and you can compete on the BayList ballot for pins and other fun stuff. While you're on our BayList page, watch the video by Bryan Callen (The Hangover, How I Met Your Mother, Entourage) made specifically for you....Roosters' awesome audiences!

Thank you for supporting live stand up comedy in your neighborhood! Cock-a-doodle-doo!

2 Chances to win tickets from KOFY-TV!

Welcome back, KOFY!

We love KOFY-TV. They sponsor some of our events, schlep the KOFY Crew out to the club to give stuff away, put some of our customers on TV saying things like, "Welcome back, KOFY!", and feature many of our favorite local comedians on the late-Saturday night Creepy KOFY Movie Time show. CKMT is campy horror movie and variety show, with go-go dancers, comedians, bands, magicians and other off-beat performers hosted by No Name--a DJ--and Balrok--a demon. Conor Kellicutt, Tim Babb, Larry "Bubbles" Brown, Alex Koll, Kabeezy and Sammy Obeid are just a few of the comedians that have slung jokes in the cave.

KOFY Club members can win tickets for headliner Brent Weinbach on September 17 (9pm) or Bryan Callen on September 24 (9pm). Contest began 8/30 and goes through 9/10 for the Weinbach tix and runs from 9/6 to 9/17 for the Callen tix. Visit KOFYtv.com to learn more about the KOFY Club and to enter to win!

Even if you don't win tickets, come on out to one or both of these shows. The KOFY Crew will be on hand with lots of freebies and your chance to be on TV!

Here's a clip of headliner Brent Weinbach on Comedy Central. Brent performs five shows September 16 through 19 at Roosters.

Just for fun, a little taste of CKMT.

Bryan Callen Caught on Camera last night on CSI: Miami

Tonight on CSI:Miami, Horatio Caine and his team of gun-toting scientists tried to extract an incriminating sample from stand up comedian Bryan Callen. Bryan, who you might remember as an original cast member of MADtv, portrays a corporate employee potentially on the chopping block in an episode of CSI: Miami entitled  "Getting Axed." (You can watch the episode on the CBS site.) The vic was the not-well-liked but very well-dressed receptionist (interesting choice on International Woman's Day). As it turns out, Bryan's character wasn't the killer...but still guilty of something. Desperate to keep his job and gain the esteem of his colleagues, he decided to start a family. He started by clipping photos out of catalogs and putting them on "Happy Father's Day" mugs. The CSI gang affectionately referred to the somewhat pathetic character as the "Faux Family Man."

We had a great time when Bryan headlined Feb 19-21 2010 and we're looking forward to having him back. We can't wait to ask him what David Caruso is really like, because he seems too cool for school. In the meantime, here's a clip of Bryan crowing for the Roosters' camera.
