Fairfield Arts & Convention Center proudly presents another Live Comedy Night with Comedian Bill Blank. Friday, February 12, 2010 at 8:00 pm in a “Comedy Club” atmosphere. Join us in the meeting rooms for fun and laughter! Doors will open at 7:00 pm.

Like a pot that slowly begins to boil, headliner comedian Bill Blank has an act that simmers to perfection. Slowly paced to encourage all followers, Bill lures you into a false sense of security as he starts his show with topics we can all relate to, and agree with.

An easy going every man with a wit that is as sharp as a razor, Bill’s act pushes the envelope without pushing too far. He challenges your sensibilities without making you uncomfortable. He speaks intelligently, without condescending to the masses. In short, he hits it out of the park. In a world where comics often resort to a cheap and easy laugh, Bill goes the extra distance to earn the laugh. Earning the respect of fellow comics and comedy aficionados, Bill believes that it doesn’t take an idiot, or a genius, to understand great comedy. Funny is funny. And Bill is funny.

Diverse in subject matter, Bill can appeal to any crowd. Young or old, jaded or naive, rich or poor, smart or challenged. Married, single, parents, children. City dwellers or country folk, they can all relate to the very real, very truthful observations of this master comedian.

Doug Stone, armed with a microphone and a grin the size of Texas, brings a unique energy to the stage that can only be comparable to that of a runaway train. Included in his arsenal of jokes is his spontaneous and sporadic thought-provoking silliness. He might even tell you how to beat a parking ticket by using his “Opposite Day” defense. It’s quite a show, and one that is well worth seeing, making it hard to believe that Doug Stone was once a small town Midwestern boy. His shows are always unique, which sets him apart from many of his contemporaries. Most recently Doug took Second place at the Comic Showdown 2007 First place at the Omaha’s funniest person contest.

The gauntlet has been thrown. If you are looking for the same, run of the mill show you have seen a thousand times before, then look away. But if you are looking for a fresh voice, a seed of originality floating in a sea of averages, look no farther. Get ready to laugh hard. You’re about to.

$10 in advance at the Center Box Office only no Online sales available or $12 at the door. Doors will open at 7:00 pm

This event is being sponsored by the Red Rock Grille.
