SPECIAL: Club Indie presents Mark Radcliffe
SPECIAL: Club Indie presents Mark Radcliffe

We hate to keep pickin on em but...

Dead guy elected mayor. Door-to-door meat salesman busted for pot. You're thinkin, deep Soooouth? Well, DUUH!

If The Eagles and Jack Johnson had a baby...

His music and lyrics would sound a lot like Mark Radcliffe. He grew up in Maine and Vermont, taught high school English for years (yes, waited tables & tended bar) and wrote ad copy. Along the way he's played and sung his tunes from NYC to Atlanta to LA, and in countless other cities and towns in between. Today, his first, full-studio CD, "The Sea Before Us" is getting lots of spins and drawing glowing reviews from coast to coast.

2Kens Comedy Club Indie caught up with Mark for a fascinating 15 minutes in which we learned he...

  • is obsessed with brunettes
  • can go 5 minutes on how not to be a schmuck at the movies
  • has had enough failed jobs and star-crossed relationships to fill his next album
  • no longer believes 30 (or any age) is the point when you figure out life

Songs played include, "In The Sun", "Blow It All Away", "Tumbleweed" and our personal top-down, driving around tune "Miss Hard To Forget." (for that special brunette in your life, guys!)

#80 Nice Try Jackass
Step right up and pick an alibi... Talk about material writing itself. Stupid criminals abound and getting caught is half the fun. So you call yourself a consultant...

Step right up and pick an alibi...

Talk about material writing itself. Stupid criminals abound and getting caught is half the fun.

So you call yourself a consultant...

We found the BEST definition ever!

Hello? Front desk? My room doesn't have lights...

Pedal faster. Odd that a U.S. hotel chain didn't think of this first.

Breaking news...

TV stations in your town do this? Our local ABC affiliate kept interrupting the good stuff with an "urgent" story. Turns out nobody's life was in danger. Good reason for that. News 8 = Fail.

Also this week... a Darwin Award nominee, and more fun with English since they canned all the proof readers.

Musical guest...

Melina Gerges. Trained in classical Italian opera, writing and singing American pop from Houston, TX. A haunting voice you will not forget. We feature two tunes off Melina's "Salem" album, the title track, and "Wasted Time." Enjoy the show!

#79 Online Dumping
Breakup Bradley... He is fast becoming the most hated guy on the net. Or most loved. Depends on if you hired him. Want out of your relationship but can't stand the messy part? Brad's your man. (Chubby Checker said it best. C'mon people, work with us. Famous song lyrics? Anyone? Sheesh! 2Kens are getting old.) By the [...]

Breakup Bradley...

He is fast becoming the most hated guy on the net. Or most loved. Depends on whether you hired him. Want out of your relationship but can't stand the messy part? Brad's your man. (Chubby Checker said it best. C'mon people, work with us. Famous song lyrics? Anyone? Sheesh, 2Kens are getting old!) By the way, no truth to the rumor that Lily Sparks now writes our material.

So that's what they do in Empire, Michigan...

Asparagus Fest 2010. Don't miss it. Yum! And you thought you'd have to wait until next St. Patty's Day to pee green.

Oh, and while your touring middle America, make sure Dad visits the annual Duct Tape Festival. Looks like your summer is loaded with fun things to do!

Wanted: Rude interviewer...

No experience necessary. Years spent trying to pick up women in bars is all training you need to write for this online site. We can almost guarantee they don't offer health insurance (Be sure to let someone know if you take the job. It's like don't go swimming alone).

One less lawyer ain't so bad...

So this guy rips off an office supply store (Staples, there we said it. There goes another potential sponsor), but instead of fleeing, he brags about the caper to everyone in sight. Why? C'mon, you must know how the criminal mind works by now!

Other stuff we found amusing (considering the audience)... 

  • a prisoner protest in Sweden but something doesn't smell right about this story.
  • advice for drunk drivers. Improve your aim or pick better targets
  • and a helpful reminder as Tax Man Cometh Day approaches

Musical guests, David Perry & Purple Tree, a rock, psychedelic, retro rock band from Chicago with a sound that is part Pink Floyd and part John Lennon.

Enjoy the show!

Torch this...

It's arson week here at YCMIU. Knowingly or otherwise these idiots recently set fire to their lives so we thought, hey, works for us.

Lock her up...

Finish this sentence: Absense makes the heart _____. If you said, ignite something at the police station you're half right. Wait until you hear WHY she did it!

No cows were hurt, we swear...

Watch out for the exploding cheese truck. If only it had happened in Wisconsin.

Here kitty, kitty...

Big thanks to Nick, a YCMIU fan in Fort St. John, British Columbia for this story. Earth Hour came and went uneventfully for millions this year. But for one high-level government environmentalist in Canada (and his cat) it was a night neither will ever forget. Guy's wife wasn't too thrilled, either.

Non-combustibles this week include...

  • Streaker in a town where there really isn't anything better to do
  • A disgruntled workers protest that bares (heh-heh) watching
  • Man flees police only to learn that most walls serve a purpose

Musical guests Can't Hang, a reggae /ska/ rock band from Baltimore. We play "Wait A Minute" and "Just For You" from their "Ride the Lightrail" album.
