I hope to see you this weekend for the fun! (The next Six Pack show will be Saturday, July 12th.)
Here are more funny things coming up that she recommends:
For over a year now Carmen has been producing a show every Thursday called "Half & Half at HalfLounge" with Phil Davidson (2013 Funniest Comic in Vermont Winner) at HalfLounge in Burlington (8pm, 136 1/2 Church Street--free show!).
Notably, we will have Kenny DeForest from the Chicago scene (http://www.rooftopcomedy.com/comics/KennyDeForest) Thursday June 26th (free!)
& Jared Logan (Comedy Central Half Hour, VH1's Best Week Ever. $10, maybe $8 we haven't decided) Thursday July 10th!
Mass Appeal! is a wildly popular show every 1st Sunday of the month at Sweet Melissa's in Montpelier. Next one is Sunday July 6th. 7pm, $5.
Phil Davidson and I join LA's Ben Blanchard with sketch group Dead Kevin (Ahmed Baroocha, Ryan O'Flannagan, and Jack Robichaud) for comedy Tuesday July 8th at Arts Riot, $10.

Looking to raise funds for a cause and have a laugh? Book the all-female touring troupe The Vermont Comedy Divas (http://www.vermontcomedydivas.com/divas-do-good.html)! Contact them on their website.
Interested in trying stand-up yourself? There are a number of comedy open mics including Franny-O’s on Mondays at 8pm, Half Lounge on Thursdays from 9:25-10:25, & Nectar’s on Wednesdays from 7:30-9:30.
If you cant attend shows, please help spread the word so we can continue producing great comedy shows in Vermont!
And finally, THANK YOU, for without you this great and growing comedy scene wouldn't be possible! I hope to see you out there!
