Two item minimum per person. &#160; $30 Preferred tickets $25 GA tickets &#160; Jerry Wayne Longmire is a veteran stand-up comic, original viral content creator, and well-known internet personality. A seasoned performer based out of Houston, Jerry performs for the troops overseas, delivers dynamic sets in intimate comedy club settings and theater venues alike, and produces 100% original, professional-grade social media content. His playful brand of storytelling and signature twang &#8212; reminiscent of an East Texas junkyard upbringing &#8212; effortlessly draws in audiences and captivates people worldwide. With over 1.5 million followers across his social media platforms, you may recognize Jerry from viral series like the witty, sometimes frighteningly insightful Truck Astrology roast series, or the carefully crafted garage antics of Shoptalk. His videos across TikTok, Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram consistently reach nearly 300 million impressions across all platforms. Jerry also works alongside Mattel's premier brand, Hot Wheels, as a recurring judge for their annual custom car competition, the Hot Wheels Legends Tour &#8212; where he draws on his unmatched knowledge of vehicles and impeccable taste to work directly with Hot Wheels designers and executives in selecting the custom build that will join the die-cast production lineup the following year. Deep-cut fans love getting a glimpse of the "real Jerry" in his hilariously relatable and refreshingly vulnerable podcast, The Reckon Yard &#8212; a self-examination of his life, relationships, and Southern piney woods upbringing, told through the vehicles and junkyard lessons that shaped him. Now in its fourth season, The Reckon Yard has already landed a two-book deal for Season 1 &#8212; with full audio, TV, and film sub-rights.&#160; At the end of the day, Jerry Wayne Longmire is the rare entertainer who can make a crowd of thousands feel like they're sitting around the fire with an old friend &#8212; and that's not something you can manufacture. &#160; https://www.instagram.com/p/DPM3CdtkSpY/ &#160; &#160;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Special Event. No Groupon, passes, or discounts. Two item minimum per person. &#160; Greg Warren is a beloved stand-up comedian known for his sharp, relatable humor that resonates with everyday families across the country. Warren recently released his latest comedy special, The Champ, produced by Nate Bargatze, now streaming on Nateland&#8217;s YouTube channel. The Champ takes audiences through a hilarious exploration of the dangers of poison ivy, the rise of high school fishing teams, and his own (somewhat questionable) claims to champion status. The New York Times praised The Champ, noting: &#8220;His appealing, all-American observational humor begins with such sound, simple ideas, executed with commitment. Produced by Nate Bargatze, who shares his family-friendly, slice-of-life style, Warren takes on a big, bland subject like poison ivy or Walgreens, then sits with it, attacking from a dizzying number of angles.&#8221; Greg&#8217;s previous special, The Salesman &#8212; co-produced by Nate Bargatze and 800 Pound Gorilla Media &#8212; was hailed by The New York Times, as &#8220; [having] done for peanut butter what Jerry Seinfeld did for Pop-Tarts and Jim Gaffigan did for Hot Pockets.&#8221; The hour tells the story of Greg&#8217;s post-college years selling Jif and Pringles for Procter &#38; Gamble, a formative chapter that ultimately launched his career in stand-up comedy. He can be seen in his Amazon Prime Special, Where The Field Corn Grows, Fish Sandwich on Dry Bar Comedy, Late Night with Seth Meyers, The Late Late Show and Comedy Central Presents. Greg&#8217;s audience consists of a widely diverse spectrum, having performed as a finalist on BET&#8217;s Coming to the Stage and on Country Music Television. He is a longtime favorite on the nationally syndicated Bob &#38; Tom Show, where he also contributes a recurring call-in segment known as The Warren Report. Greg&#8217;s material has been a daily staple on SiriusXM for over a decade and can now be heard regularly on the Pure Comedy channel (formerly Laugh USA), as well as Jeff &#38; Larry&#8217;s Comedy Roundup. He&#8217;s guested on top podcasts including Nateland, Never Not Funny, Bertcast, Dumb People Town, The Adam Carolla Show, and many more. He was selected as a New Face of Comedy at JFL, has performed on Comedy Central&#8217;s Premium Blend and participated in NBC&#8217;s Last Comic Standing. Greg is also the co-host of The Consumers, a podcast on Nate Bargatze&#8217;s Nateland network, where he and fellow comedians Tim Convy &#38; Sean O&#8217;Brien do a weekly deep dive into one national brand. Greg hails from St. Louis, MO, where his father was a high school wrestling coach, and his mother made him play clarinet in the band. He has captivated audiences with anecdotes about the conflict inherent in meshing the two disparate high school identities of varsity wrestler and band geek. Greg was also a West Point Cadet, where he distinguished himself by amassing an impressive tally of demerits and endless hours of pointless marching. After moving on to the University of Missouri, he studied journalism and became an All-American college wrestler. Warren can be seen working out his new material on a brand new domestic tour throughout 2025.

His journey of unapologetic self-acceptance continues to captivate audiences, as he leads the way in representing and celebrating Arab-American and Arab diaspora voices in comedy. &#160; &#160; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6bz19_JE-Y &#160; &#160; &#160;]]></description>

No Groupon, passes or discounts. &#160; Described by Jay Leno as the best joke writer in America, Emo Philips has performed over seven thousand stand-up shows in comedy clubs, colleges and theaters, including a multi-week run at the Playhouse Theatre in London's West End. &#160; In 2018 and 2022-2023, Emo toured with "Weird Al" Yankovic (over two hundred concerts across three continents); Emo will forever remember the standing ovation he received at Carnegie Hall. &#160; "I'm not sure when or where I first heard of Emo's routines, but once I did I instantly became a fan," says "Weird Al" Yankovic. "Emo had the iconic look of someone who could have been a major star in the era of silent films. His body language was indescribably weird. And his material was flat-out brilliant." If asked at gunpoint who the funniest guy in the world was, Yankovic adds, "Without question I would have to say Emo Philips -- especially if Emo happened to be the one holding the gun." &#160; --- "Weird Al" Yankovic, Chicago Magazine&#160; &#160; I have adored Emo Philips since the UK in the 80's. He is hilarious."&#160; &#160; &#160; &#160;--- Eric Idle, May 12, 2018 &#160; "Emo is the most brilliant joke-writer in the game. You HAVE to see him live. He's amazing." &#160; &#160;--- Patton Oswalt, February 1, 2022 &#160; &#8220;What a joy. What a complete joy. Astounding. There really is no better joke writer and that&#8217;s the smallest part of what&#8217;s great.&#8221; &#160; &#160;&#8212; Penn Jillette, July 23, 2025 &#160; "Emo Philips... absolutely killed." &#160; &#160;--- Rolling Stone (Carnegie Hall review), October 30, 2022&#160; &#160; https://www.emophilips.com/video/video/139 &#160; https://www.emophilips.com &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Two item minimum per person. &#160; WRY, WITTY, CUNNING, AND CRASS Detroit native Mike Stanley is all of these things, but none, when put on paper, quite manage to serve the justice dealt by Stanley onstage. Yeah, he's pretty hilarious, but more than just coarse anecdotes about life, there's an enviable amount of heart and warmth behind Stanley's humor.&#160; Given his penchant toward brutal honesty, spiced up with a healthy dose of insatiable wit, it's not difficult to see why Stanley was named "Best Chicago Stand-up Comedian" in a Peoples Choice poll done by the Chicago Reader and "Best Detroit Comedian" by HOUR Magazine.&#160; Originally hailing from Detroit, and after spending a decade honing his craft in the Windy City of Chicago, Mike tours constantly, both domestically and internationally.

                                <description><![CDATA[Two item minimum per person. Greg Hahn&#8217;s crazed joke delivery is a hallmark on the nationally syndicated Bob and Tom Radio Show. He is also a stalwart, another word he doesn&#8217;t know. On television, Greg ran for President, played unhinged drum solos and had his own 15 second podcast on Comedy Central&#8217;s Tosh.O. Other early TV appearances included Comics Unleashed with Bryon Allen, Premium Blend, 30 Seconds to Fame, Make Me Laugh, Pulp Comics, Star Search, Cedric the Entertainer Presents and Ed McMahon&#8217;s Next Big Star (winner). Greg also appeared on Late Night with Conan O&#8217;Brien and was featured on Bob and Tom&#8217;s Comedy Central Special. Before comedy, Greg was an officer in the Marines and worked in several serious jobs where he refused to be serious. Bring Greg in for your event, or see him in your city, or The Comedy Magic Club, Hermosa Beach, or The Tropicana, Las Vegas before they knock it down, or even the Delta Sky Club where he&#8217;s probably standing next to the poached eggs. Also enjoy his newly released comedy album currently being played on SiriusXM radio. &#160; https://vimeo.com/865688153 &#160; Adam Ewbank (mc) Ken Witzgall (feature)]]></description>

According to Wikipedia, he is a notable person from that town. Other notable residents of Addison have been the bozer Leon Spinks and a woman who wrote poetry about Beanie Babies.

As a comedian, he has been seen on Conan, The Tonight Show, Netflix's "The Standups," and three of his own hour-length specials on Comedy Central. As an actor, he's been in the Judd Apatow series "Love" and truTX's "Those Who Can't." He was also on "Drunk History," where he unfortunately wasn't acting. As a voice over actor, he was the former voice of Comedy Central for 8 years and currently plays Bullet on the Netflix series "Paradise PD." He is also cohost of the Boogie Monster podcast along with Dave Stone, and the streaming show "Hey Girl" with Matt Braunger. As a musician, he has done nothing, as he is not a musician.&#160; Kyle's most recent standup work, "Trampoline In A Ditch," was recorded at Comedy on State in Madison, Wisconsin and was released on 800 LB Gorilla Records in 2020. The album was accompanied by an animated short, produced by Meister.&#160; "When you're here, you're family." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqbbNy0VoP8&#38;t=50s &#160; &#160; &#160;]]></description>
