This group is for people who love to laugh and have a good time. I love going to comedy shows, but I usually end up going to alone. I have to do the 2 drink minimum alone and have to laugh alone. So I decided to create a meet up so all of us can laugh before, during and possible after the show.

The most fun and memorable nights I have in NYC seem to follow this pattern: Meet friends - Chitchat, break bread, grab a pint, etc. Attend Comedy Show - The less mainstream the better. Socialize - Go for drinks, dancing, or another random suggestion from someone in group. The linchpin is the Comedy Show since it always sets a great mood for the rest of the evening. Plus, who doesn't like laughing with friends, and checking out new shows? With that in mind this group's mission is to check out …

Every thing in this group is completely free. This group will have Meetups once every two weeks where we see some of the best standup comedy shows in Queens and Brooklyn. There will always be a mingle before the show, often with drink specials, so members can meet. And there will never be a drink minimum. And the comedians will always be pros (and usually famous).

The purpose of this meetup group is to tawk about all things related to Comedy.  Who is your favorite standup?  Does Second City still have the same clout as 30 years ago?  What was the worst sitcom of the 1990s? We are using a new platform called "Tawkers" to have these regular discussions.  What would you like to tawk about?
