Dan Cummins - Crazy with a Capital F - Comedian with the best timing!

Dan Cummins' second album, "Crazy with a Capital F" is his second masterpiece.  When recomending a comedy album to someone you know little about, you can't go wrong with Dan.  His odd sense of humor and perfect timing appeals to the blue-collar comedy redneck to the internet Failblog fan.  Even though I really think his first album, "Revenge is Near", is just a tad bit better, "Crazy with a Capital F" still gets high marks.
The best thing to do is get drunk and order this album online, because shopping is always fun, getting drunk is always fun, getting suprise gifts from yourself is even better!
Dan can be seen on Comedy Central Presents.

Kris Tinkle - Almost Awesome - Must Have!

Kris Tinkle’s debut album, “Almost Awesome” is much more than the title gives it credit for.  From the first to last track, Kris puts out punch lines, explicatives, and hilarious stories again and again and again.  Kris tackles his own obstacles in life, not in a feel sorry for me way, but much more in a Hey, God gave me lemons, I’m making some fucking good lemonade way. His ability to simultaneously poke fun at the handicap in a way that makes the listener, again not feel sorry for them, but to realize, relate, and understand that everyone has problems.  Great album for probably the most underrated comedian performing today, outside of Canada.

Kris’s album can be purchased at rooftopcomedy.com, Amazon.com, and on Itunes.

Kris is currently performing in the San Francisco area.

Aziz Anasari - Best Comedy Album of 2010!

Aziz Ansari’s first full length album, “Intimate Moments for a Sensual Evening” never lets up the laughs.  Aziz has found success as a comic actor, staring in the NBC TV hit Parks and Rec as Tom the carefree player who’s always getting let down, and also as Randy the obnoxious blue comedian in the movie “Funny People” staring Adam Sandler and Seth Rogen.  In this album, Aziz tells you his beef with thread counts, his cousin, and how he is experiencing his up and coming fame.  Aziz through out the entire album, sounds like one of your best friends from high school, the kind of friend who let’s you be yourself and never acts like he’s something he’s not around you.  Enjoy Aziz’s stories, you won’t be let down.

Aziz is all over the place, now I know he’s performing in London, where the food apparently sucks.

Catch him on Parks and Recs, on NBC, Thursday nights.

Here’s a clip of his stand-up material: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2eaxAipt8rA

Kyle Kinane - Death of the Party - Best New Artist of 2010!

Kyle Kinane’s debut album “Death of the Party” is a misanthropic insight into the everyday observance and explanations of daily life.  Kyle has a way that is humble and engaging, asking the listener to take a minute and see his life through his eyes.  Even though Kyle may look at that old nasty toilet you might find in some gas station, he sees the creativity of plumbing, the untold story of the last occupant, the sad wishing well it has become for the lost quarter in the open topped tank.  Brilliant and soft spoken, Kyle is well on his way up, and I hope you can catch him live.  You and your best friends will enjoy this album, over and over again.

Kyle is originally from Chicago, but resides in LA.

You can often see him on the Carson Daly show.
