Christian Finnegan will host the New York City installment at Comix comedy club on Oct. 5 with Michael Ian Black, Todd Barry, Hannibal Buress and surprise guests scheduled to appear. Tickets are only $15 and can be purchased here or here. Get there early and get some free goodies from our friends at Comedy Central. Stay late, and get some free Punchline Magazine birthday cake!

For comedy fans in Los Angeles, Greg Proops will host an all-star show featuring the likes of Marc Maron, Maria Bamford, Whitney Cummings and Chris Hardwick. It’s all going down at Largo on Oct. 11. at 8 pm. Tickets are $25 and can be purchased here. Buy your tickets online, e-mail us proof of purchase at punchlinemagazine@gmail.com and we’ll give you a free 3-month national WiFi subscription, compliments of our friends at Boingo.com!
