Artomatic

I just performed at Artomatic, an art exhibit in DC. It's cool to perform alongside visual art, because stand-up gets no respect in the art world. One time, I did a college show where the billing was Ryan Conner and Make Your Own Flip-Flops. That's not an improv group either. It's make your own flip-flops. I was like, "Stand-up is an art, and it's co-headlining with flip-flops?" "But you can put glitter on the flip-flops. That's art, right?" Good point.
Tonight, it really felt right that we were performing next to real art; a couch covered with bubble-wrap. That's art. I hear the guy covered a Lazy Boy with butcher paper last year. Genius!
A white guy just walked into the show and yelled, "Oh shit. Dey cut a hole in it!" Then he left. That's it. I'm not sure who "sey" are or what they cut. But dey did it.
