COMEDY WALK Gets the Word Out...

Many of you have your own press contacts and email lists. Please pass

this announcement along to anyone interested in comedy. Thank you!

COMEDY WALK brings laughter to the streets of downtown Los Angeles.

Beverly Hills, CA, January 2, 2008 - COMEDY WALK kicks off on January

10th, 2008, from 8pm to 9:30pm, in downtown Los Angeles. The FREE

monthly event presents more than 30 comedy acts performing at five

simultaneous venues in the historic downtown's Gallery Row and Old

Bank District in the neighborhood of Main and 5th streets. The monthly

30-act COMEDY WALK event is the lead-up to the massive 300-act LOS

ANGELES COMEDY FESTIVAL coming to downtown in November 2008.

Comedian Rick Overton, who's appeared in episodes of Seinfeld and won

an Emmy writing for Dennis Miller Live, is one of the COMEDY WALK

performers. "I like the whole COMEDY WALK idea", says Overton. "In

virtually any other city, walking means that you are healthy and have

somewhere important to go. In Los Angeles, it means that something has

gone horribly wrong with your career. I like to walk to my favorite

diner. When I get home, there'll be messages on my service: 'Hey man,

I was driving by and saw you walking down Ventura today. I just hate

to see you out there all on foot like that. Is everything okay? Do you

need one of my cars? Call me... I'll be on the treadmill watching Dr.

Phil on the flat screen, but I'll leave my cell phone on.' Sheesh...

COMEDY WALK is the healthiest thing comics have done in years."
