Twenty fucking years. On February 6th, 2005, we threw open the doors of the Comedy Corner Underground and let the weirdos, degenerates, and comedy misfits flood in. Since then, this punk rock comedy club has been the filthy little basement where jokes go to party, bomb, and sometimes accidentally become iconic. We started as an open mic, and kinda sorta turned into a club, and we're going to honor our tradition of supporting new up-and-coming comics by...PUTTING ON THE FIRST SHOW EVER AGAIN WITH SUPER (OLD) FUNNY COMICS THAT STARTEDE THE PLACE.
That's right, we're bringing back in all the original performers from 20 years ago. (except for that one guy, he knows what he did)
Your performers to mark the end of an era, or as our spouses still call it an "error", you'll see...
The man who started the club, 20 years on, your host majeure - non other than Marc Dickhut!

Tommy Thompson has a brand of comedy that is as unique as he is. His emphatic delivery and highenergy makes him fun to see time and again. He dishes out the comedy laughs with a distinct style that will make you leave his show feeling exhausted from laughing!
No newcomer to comedy, Shannon Thompson’s unique writing style and sense of irony set him apart from other comics. His unflinching ability to make fun of himself, and anyone else he feels like, shows his comedic courage knows no bounds.
Writing all his own material from personal and often mind boggling experiences, Shannon offers a hilarious and welcome new voice to comedy.
