This year we’re bringing in tons of comics from all over the country. But we’re also inviting Colorado’s best comics to the show, because, well, we might run into them at Whole Foods and we don’t want them to get mad at us.
Meet MATT MONROE!
To those that know him, Matt Monroe is a bit of a risk taker (no iPhone case) and someone who has accomplished a great many things in his lifetime. (not vegan) But the people who Matt keeps closest to him (women) know that above all else, he is the finest lover one could ask for (will go downtown).
Matt runs a monthly comedy showcase at Lannies Clocktower Cabaret (16th & Arapahoe) the last Sunday of every month and can be found pandering for your approval on the following social media websites. (will go downtown)
Laugh Track: How long have you been a stand-up comic?
Matt: 1 year
What other comics will you be watching during the festival?
I plan on watching everyone, since I have no social life to speak of. In particular though, I’m looking forward to sets from out of towners Jay Washington, Ron Babcock, Ed Galvez, and Alex Mesrobian.
If you could give yourself advice when you first started out, what would it be?
Write a lot of facebook jokes, like EVERYONE is on facebook so its totally relatable!
If your future self ten years from now could give you advice, what would it be?
Probably should have passed on that TJ MAXX ad campaign (2014, probably)
Scientology inspired questions. Feel free to go into detail if you need to. Here we go…
a) Do you lie about yourself? see 5d
b) Do you connect yourself with bad influences? see 5d
c) Should you be punished forever? see 5d
d) Have you ever invented perverted sexual practices? I don’t know that I invented it, but I can’t remember where I learned it. It’s called ‘The Hindenburg’ and it’s when you are having intercourse with a large lady. In the middle of it you pull out, wrap her up in the sheets, light the sheets on fire, roll her off the bed and scream “OHHH THE HUMANITY” (then put the fire out because you dont want the house to burn down LOL!)
e) Is there a past life that you can’t talk about? OHH THE HUMANITY
