AU CONTRAIRE: The Cover Art

So this is kind of a kick-ass moment for me. After lots of diligent work and consternation on the part of various people, the final cover art for my upcoming DVD is finally post-able. I think you will agree, it's pretty f'in sweet:





I can't tell you how happy I am with this. Now if only my jokes lived up to its promise! A few thing I definitely need to mention:

* The amazing illustration was done by Stephen Gardner, better known as "Cheeky" to his friends. Stephen has been Herculean in his ability to not tell me to go fuck myself through this process.

* The logo and all of the graphic design was done by Matt Taylor at Varnish Studios. Wait until you see the stuff he came up with for the rest of the CD/DVD packaging!

* A reminder: "Au Contraire!" debuts on Comedy Central on Saturday, May 8th. The DVD and CD hit stores on May 12th.

* If you feel so inclined, PLEASE feel free to post the cover art on your page, email it to your friends and/or have it tattooed right above your buttcrack. The word, she needs to get out!

YOU, ME & NYC: Live at Comix, March 13 & 14?


Hello again, Webingtons.

I'm going to be blunt: On Friday, March 13th and Saturday, March 14th, I will be headlining the lovely comedy nightclub Comix. If you live in or around NYC, I really really really really want to your pretty/handsome face.

I don't often get to do full headlining sets in my hometown for my friends and peers, so I'm really looking forward to next weekend. These totally wicked awesome shows will feature buttloads of new material guaranteed to amuse, engage and slightly disturb you.

You're going to make me beg, are you?

(sigh)

Fine.

PLEASE PLEASE DEAR GOD PLEASE I'LL DO ANYTHING I WILL BE YOUR BESTEST BUDDY FOREVER I'LL MOW YOUR LAWN I'LL RE-FINANCE YOUR MORTGAGE I'LL SACRIFICE A GOAT IN YOUR HONOR TO THE COSMIC DEMON-GOD (ED ASNER) I'LL LET YOU MIX A BUNCH OF FOODS TOGETHER THAT SHOULDN'T GO TOGETHER AND THEN EAT IT!!!

Ugh. I feel so dirty.

Anyway, here are the details:

Christian Finnegan
Live at Comix
March 13th & 14th
8:00pm & 10:30pm
(212) 524-2500

You will be there. Yes, you will. You wouldn't let my groveling be for naught, would you?

Christian Finnegan
