SF Sketfest: Mary Van Note

1. Have you played Sketchfest before?

Yes! I’ve been in every Sketchfest since 2006. The first time was with my old college sketch group Sunshine Fortress (http://www.myspace.com/sunshinefortress). The last couple years I’ve done my stand-up in the festival.

2. What was your experience/ are you excited to play for the first time?

Awesome. It’s always a blast. Probably the biggest highlight was meeting Paul Reubens, although witnessing The Red Wine Boys (http://www.redwineboys.com/) was equally as memorable.

3. Who are some of the comics you are most looking forward to seeing?

Josh Fadem. The guy was so crazy/funny at the Bridgetown Comedy Festival last year, so I’m curious to see what he might do at the Punch Line in San Francisco. He also happens to be on a show with my two other faves: Brent Weinbach and Moshe Kasher.

Chris Hardwick’s 6th Sketchfest and OMG Terry Jones

1. Have you played Sketchfest before?
This is my sixth year!

2. What was your experience/ are you excited to play for the first time?
Unreal. I got to do a show with Bruce McCulloch, whom I became pals with afterward. As a huge KITH fan, this was quite a big deal to my feeble nerd brain. Also, the SF audiences are PHENOMENAL. Smart, warm…and laughers. I enjoy that in an audience.

3. Who are some of the comics you are most looking forward to seeing?
I don’t think there’s one show I don’t want to see. I’m freaking out a bit over Dick Cavett & Terry Jones, though.

Andy Kindler: “I Wish I Was Bitter” w/audio clip from SF Sketchfest

Andy Kindler is by far one of Pop-Rock Candy Mountain’s and my personal favorite comedians. He has this sarcastic, self-deprecating style that makes him truly endearing. He will alternately nail any comic he doesn’t like to the wall faster that you can say hudspah.

Andy can be seen regularly as a correspondent on The Late Show With David Letterman and in the next few weeks will be releasing a new DVD entitled, “I Wish I Was Bitter”. He will also be appearing at SXSW 2009- the details of which we will reveal at a later date.

I recently spoke with Andy about his appearance at SF Sketchfest and his upcoming DVD release.
