You are cordially invited to Storking Comedy, a one-of-a-kind comedy show in the heart of downtown Oakland.

Also, accompanying the merrymaking is of course: you. All comedians, hobbyist, amateur or professional, are welcome to participate limited open mic happening from 6:30-8:00pm. Sign-up: 5:45pm.
Of course, Stork Club wouldn’t be the Stork Club without the awesomely cheap drinks and pinball, available in abundance. Free show, raucous atmosphere and cheap drinks = no brainer.
So come, relax, hang out, participate, get involved and get in to it.
[The Stork Club has no show afterwards so the open-mic is ostensibly limited less. We’re going til we run out of jokers.]
“Storking Comedy: Josef Anolin (11/29/2012)” by Sylvan Productions. Recorded Live at the Stork Club (Oakland, CA).
Josef Anolin used to be a fat, nerdy kid. Now he’s a comedian, making light of the depressing rearing.
[Sylvan Productions, of which I’m inseparable, has started a Soundcloud page, which you should check out.]
