Chicago stand-up Hannibal is back from a happily busy two weeks in New York. It sounds like he hit every single comedy stop along the way.

"I performed at most of the NY clubs while I was there, Caroline's, Improv, Stand Up NY, Comix. At Comix I got to do a guest spot opening for Josh Blue, the winner of Last Comic Standing. I performed at Hot Tub, the last show they would be doing at the People's Improv Theater ( the show has moved to Comix). Michael Showalter was also performing. When I did an audition for P'Diddy's Bad Boys of Comedy, Damon Wayans stopped in and performed for 30 minutes close to the end of the show."

"The Live at Gotham set went pretty cool, Bill Burr performed at the end, Demetri Martin also stopped in and worked on his Letterman set. I also performed at Crash Test at the UCB - Zach Galifianakis headlined. All in all it was a pretty good trip - I got to perform at a lot of shows, see lots of good comedy. I think the two weeks I spent was more productive than the four months I spent earlier in the year."

Catch Hannibal tonight at The Note, and Tuesday night at The People Under the Stares at Weeds.
