VINYL SALE: If you're looking for some rare vinyl, you might want to check out this monthly event: Shakey's Record Fair. A meatpacking district locale seems...a little off, but as FreeNYC points out, if you're "looking for that super rare old school funktified 7"...Shakey's Record Fair is probably the only place you'll find it."

Comedy Legends Live: The inimitable Carl Reiner speaks with Curb Your Enthusiasm’s Susie Essman.

Thank you to everyone for coming out to the first ever Gothamist.com Comedy Show last night. We had a great time laughing our collective asses off as Paul Scheer and Rob Huebel hosted a great night with comedians Chelsea Peretti, Nick Kroll, Aziz Ansari, and Jessi Klein.

Aziz Ansari says if you're not hyped for tonight's Gothamist.com Laughable Hype Comedy Show then you need to read this review of his last show:

- And why the cows came

As mentioned last week, we're having a comedy show! Tickets are now on sale...

Gothamist is switching things around for the next Movable Hype...it's going to be a comedy show! Here are the details:

Comedy shows in New York this weekend are going to be just like Debra Messing’s hair– all over the place but still really good. Here’s the rundown of what not to miss:

Jessi Klein, Writer/Comedian

Still haven't ironed out your New Years Eve plans yet? It's okay, we think that holiday is over-rated anyway. We suggest you gather some good friends, resolve in '05 to buy tickets before they sell out and get over to one or more of the following shows:

Jon Friedman, Rejection Show Producer, Comedian and Writer

A new addition to Mayor Bloomberg's press conferences: Someone to add a drum flourish to his jokes, so reporters know to laugh, instead of laughing at the Mayor all the time!

It had been a while, so Gothamist went to Tinkle on Sunday (we also needed a little comedy after Saturday night). Demetri Martin continued his use of visual aids: This time, he rocked out the overhead projector to excellent effect. Fred Armisen pulled up one of our friends to the stage for no real reason - we guess it's some sort of art comedy he's working on. Jessi Klein and Andy Blitz rounded out the comedy portion of the evening - but that doesn't include Jon Benjamin's in-depth investigation about girl band, Skye. The highlight, though, was David Garza, an Austin singer-songwriter, whose guitar playing was beautiful and witty lyrics were infectious.

This Sunday's Tinkle looks to be exceptionally good: Marc Maron, Fred Armisen, Jessi Klein, with music by David Garza. Todd Barry and Jon Benjamin host.
