Boston comedians in Washington

Everywhere I go, there are Boston comedians. I was on Washington over the weekend to cover the Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear, and found Boston comedians Benari Poulten and Brian Joyce performing at Jeff Kreisler's sold out Comedy Against Evil show at the D.C. Arts Center.

Joyce was in town covering the Rally for AOL's TV Squad -- you can see his video "man on the street" interviews here. I was there for the same reason, covering from the print side. Search my name and "Rally" on http://www.tvsquad.com/ to find my stories. Here's one on who attended the Rally.

Also, I will be on WMFO tonight with Joyce and Derek Gerry to give my usual 8PM comedy update on The Whole Truth.

Benari Poulten at Mottley’s 11/28

Chelmsford native Benari Poulten does a lot of traveling for his day job. Which might be fun, if his day job wasn’t in the U.S. Army Reserves. Poulten was assigned to Guantanamo in 2002, and he’s heading out again soon, this time to Baghdad. So if you want to see him do stand-up, he’s doing a guest spot tonight at Mottley’s Comedy Club (the headliner is Newton native Jon Fisch, with Jason Kanter and Giulia Rozzi). Friday, November 28, 8 PM. $20. Mottley’s Comedy Club, 61 Chatham Street, Boston.
