31 Hours of Rogue- Hour 16- Cap'n Scurvy's Apocalypse Hoedown

I had the pleasure of seeing Scurvy at the Fresno Beehive birthday party, and he is an absolute riot. A true performer, he plays up the suspense in his act well, and eats fire, and does other quirky crazy stuff that. And he's vulgar as hell. Don't say I didn't warn you when you're sitting there innocently enjoying some good 'ol fashion vaudeville style comedy and suddenly Scurvy is gyrating on you.

I just love the synopses on the Rogue page, so I'll let them say it better than I would:

31 Hours of Rogue- Hour 15- Man In Labor

Travis Sheridan is one of those people who always keep me on my toes. I never know what he'll be doing next, where he's going to pop up or how he's going to make me smile from ear to freakin' ear. His Rogue performance this year promises to be typical Travis- amazing. This is what I was able to dig up from the Rogue site. Digging up probably implies a lot of hard work, and I'll let you guys think it was because it might fit in with the theme of his performance a little better than "copy and paste".

Lamaze Instructor did not make the list. What happens to a man who has worked since the age of 6? Well, he can sure as hell “get” a job, but can he keep a job? Join in a comedic journey through a career ladder that includes Victoria’s Secret and spending time in a cult. References provided upon request.

You guys know I love the Valley Burlesque Society. Its kind of a no-brainer as far as I'm concerned, its pretty, its funny and its oh so seductive and sultry! Of course they're going to have great shows, and from the looks of things (things being flyers) they have three different shows to leave our jaws on the floor and our hearts aflutter, all at Full Circle Brewery.

31 Hours of Rogue- Hour 12- Read up on Rogue from The Collegian

“The whole idea behind the festival is there is not a jury that says this group can do it and this group can’t,” Boone said. “It’s a really neat festival because it’s a great opportunity for people to try things out.”

- Benjamin Boone

31 Hours of Rogue- Hour 11- Rogue Recomendations

I trust Mike Osegueda, he's right on about how much the Black Eyed Peas suck, he knows his Tacos, he loves Fresno and he has the cutest dog ever. Plus, his wife is my official unofficial Twitter BFF. A man can't help it if he has great taste. So I trust that his recommendations on the must-see shows of the Rogue will be pretty much right on. He'll be blogging about them all week long, so be sure to check him out on the Beehive!
