Tearing the Veil of Maya anniversary show & other comedy & Park Slope & Sub Pop type stuff

Michael Showalter & Janeane Garofalo @ Union Hall -July 2007 (Bryan Bruchman)
Showalter Garofalo

Last year David Cross, Janeane Garofalo and Land of Talk performed at Eugene Mirman and Michael Showalter's anniversary party. This year anything can happen. $10 tickets to the July 20th Union Hall show are on sale.

In related news, Tearing the Veil of Maya will return as a weekly show at Union Hall after Labor Day. Mike Birbiglia is playing Union Hall again this Tuesday (July 15), but not before performing at UCB on Monday. Dave Hill is playing the Union Hall party at the Brooklyn Bridge in August. Dave Hill is also performing at UCB on Thursday July 17th WITH Martha Plimpton and Lucy Wainwright Roche (who recently played Southpaw with Neko Case and Eugene Mirman and Michael Showalter).

ALSO: The Del Close Marathon is coming to UCB

RECENTLY: Michael Showalter performed at McCarren Pool

AND: Fleet Foxes are playing Union Hall in Park Slope tonight. The Vaselines are playing right down the street at Southpaw in Park Slope tonight. Both Fleet Foxes and The Vaselines are then heading to Seattle to play the Sub Pop Festival this weekend along with Park Slope's Eugene Mirman (and David Cross, Patton Oswalt, Todd Barry, Flight of the Conchords and Kristen Schaal) and No Age (who are playing South Street Seaport tomorrow) and Low (who are playing Union Hall in Park Slope on September 23rd).

Got 2 tickets to Maya. You think it will sell out quickly?

i have to assume this will be in the upstairs so not as quickly as fleet foxes or something.

about Maya I have: "like last year's, will run about 90 minutes, maybe a band....eugene & michael are still firming up performers. after the show, party in the basement like last year, maybe some impromptu sets... whole building"

(and btw, thanks joseph!)
