Feedback Wednesdays: Comedy this week, ‘Purse Poker’ next week & beyond

To commemorate the first-ever standup-comedy show at Feedback Lounge (WSB sponsor), we stopped by Wednesday night for a pre-show photo of the comedians, (updated) from left – Jeffrey Robert, Cait Parks, Daryl Coxy, Cris Rodriguez , host/headliner Mona Concepcion, and Sara Bergner; Mona tells us there will be another comedy night October 16th.

Then, talking to Feedback co-proprietor Jeff Gilbert, we found out about something new for Wednesday nights starting next week – here’s a hint:

Custom cards are now in the house because Wednesday nights at 7 pm, starting September 25th, the Feedback will offer Purse Poker – show up, sit down for a game of Texas Hold ‘Em, but – as the explanatory flyer says – “instead of using money to ante up, you ‘bet’ with items in your purse.” Just about anything except for unwrapped food and alcohol. Yes, guys can play, but purse still required, says the Feedback. Games start at 7 pm but you can come in and join in any time between then and close.

Thanks to everyone who came out to the show last night – such a great audience, such a fun time. And just a note, Dan Clayton (with arms crossed in the photo) is also a West Seattle comedian – he hosted the recently defunct Knott’s Night Comedy Open Mic at the Benbow (which is looking for a new home).

Thanks, Jeffrey – I actually have updated the story and taken out the geo-reference anyway – had to doublecheck a couple of the names (thanks to Mona for answering her e-mail so early and for mentioning the info about the next show) – TR

Last night was epic! Feedback is such a great place for music and perfect for comedy. I loved how the audience was ready to laugh and all of the comics definitely delivered. Next month, we’re going to have another show featuring Seattle favorite and now LA-based comic Derek Sheen. More laughs to come!
