2/29/08 - Hell to the Chief in New Orleans

I just confirmed that I'll be doing my one-person show Hell to the Chief in New Orleans in May. If you missed the show in February here in San Francisco, I'll be returning with it in June. If you have friends or family in New Orleans, have them come check it out. If they say "What is this Hell to the Chief thing?" then you can just send them this:

 

"San Francisco comedian, Sammy Wegent, has a lot of problems with the president. Not just the current one, but all of them. In his new show, Hell For The Chief, Wegent hilariously points out why the American public has never been and will never be completely satisfied with the person running the country. Throughout this mix of stand up, satirical charts and graphs, and audience interaction, Wegent puts forth a plan on how we can actually get the leader we want in 2008, even if we have to build it, resurrect it, or take it from the animal kingdom. Hey, it can't be any worse than what we already have."
