DEE DEE DEE! Carlos Mencia has No Strings Attached

His jokes are on the mark, his quotes insightful and his biography interesting; however you don't care about that, you just want tickets to Carlos Mencia's upcoming performances across the country! The schedule is out, buy tickets before they are gone or you will find yourself reading his lyrics and looking at his pictures on Myspace while the rest of us are at the Paramount Theatre in Seattle laughing our butts off. Dee dee dee!

You could buy his tickets, or you could buy tickets from the artists he steals his jokes from. Mencia has a well known history for taking other people's material.

Wikipedia Agrees with Brummel

And I am not definitely not arguing with anyone who has a beard like that.

I would pay to see George Lopez and Carlos Mencia in a fistfight over who stole whose joke.

Spring Awakening: National Tour

Theater: Musical

Banned for 71 Years: Spring Awakening!

Wake up! Screw censorship, and hello Spring Awakening, the musical! Who wouldn't like a broadway show about sexual awakening? I am buying my tickets now for this national tour and will be listening close to the lyrics- maybe I will learn something!

The Backyardigans Live! in concert

There seem to be a lot of die-hard Backyardigans fans online, I guess there concerts or shows or musicals or whatever you want to call them are pretty popular! I have only seen them in videos and look forward to actually experiencing them on stage for the first time at the Paramount Theatre in Seattle!
