The Kissing Booth: FINAL SHOW!






























The Kissing Booth was a monthly comedy
showcase hosted by duo Brandy & Sara from June 2006 to June 2008. Stand ups, sketch, songs, and more were seen from from NYC's premiere performers, always with a spectacularly drunken finale. After the show, there was a FREE late nite dance party - with cheap booze all nite long. Pucker Up For Comedy!


The Kissing Booth presents: THE FINAL SHOW (a.k.a., We're Sorry)!

WHERE: The Tank
WHEN: Thursday June 12th, 2008
Cocktail hour & reception from 7 - 8 PM with FREE PUNCH!
Final Show from 8 - 9:30 PM
Final After Party from 9:45ish to ?
COST: ABSOLUTELY FREE!
$3 Bud Light available all night, $4 wine, FREE PUNCH 'til the cooler runs dry!

Brandy & Sara are finally at the two year anniversary of their show! That’s right, two solid years of nonsense, hi-jinx, lewd talk and overall drunken bumbling is nigh. After some careful consideration, the gals have decided to take a hiatus to focus on other comedy projects together. So, much like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, they're leaping right the fuck off a cliff together (or running out with guns drawn to certain death, either/or) and getting out while the getting's good.

Come down to the final installment of what some people called their favorite show in New York (thanks Aubrey Tennant), some people called drunken karaoke rebranded as "comedy" and some people actually thought was a fucking monthly, operational Kissing Booth (those people were clearly retarded).

We'll have a lot of sentimental bullshit, and also some performances from:

Jamie Kilstein!

Eliot Glazer!

Matt & Katina!

Jay Bois!

Matt Ruby!

…and more, TBA!

PLUS: Photos taken by NATHAN KLOKE (www.nathankloke.com) and ANYA GARRETT (www.anyagarrett.com) and maybe even a final, tear-stained DRUNKEN SHITTY KARAOKE FINALE!!! Be there one last time or regret it forever!

I Miss You. I'm Goin' Back Home The West Coast.



This song just makes me cry. Jason Schwartzman is so fucking awesome. The video is cool because, who doesn't love to watch hot skaters cause European mischief? Not this lady, that's for sure. But for some reason it's kind of sad, too. I can't just slobber at the Gonz as I would normally be wont to do. It's all infused with a gray melancholy. Kind of like this particular July day, when it rained from early morning till night and I sat in my cabin, trying to decide if the last 8 years of my life are just a colossal waste, if all the (few) times I said back to someone "I love you" I was lying after all, if I even really exist or if I'm some sort of gauzy whiny boring shadow that just lurks in the corners of everyone else's peripheral vision.

Maybe I should just ride my bike over to the laundry kiosk and get a can of Dr. Pepper. Oh and also SHUT THE FUCK UP.

Anyway.

Listen to Coconut Records' West Coast.


Thanks to Searsy who turned me onto this album a while back.
