F Yeah Fest: Comedy Show

Post by Sammy JC

Bob_odenkirk_2 With two hundred or so young adults sitting on the floor and staircase of the Jensen Recreation Center, the vibe at F Yeah's Comedy Show was akin to that of a college student group throwing a social mixer in the union commissary. There was even a lunch lady maintaining a snack bar, dispensing chips and soda to famished concertgoers. Andy_daly_2

The show featured Bob Odenkirk, Josh Fadem, Matt Dwyer, Jonah Ray with host Andy Daly. For a festival that revolved around edgy and alternative music, the comedy portion was considerably less adventurous. With group conga lines, hapless dick jokes and George Bush riffs, the audience remained surprisingly polite while rolling their eyes at the goofy social satire and hackneyed shtick.
