Lincoln Lodge Tonight
The Bastion was on hand (okay, it was a few weeks ago, sometimes we get busy with work) for the Lincoln Lodge's Season Eight opening party, replete with the introduction to, and heartfelt acceptance speeches from, each of the new castmembers: Cameron Esposito, Carrie Callahan, CJ Toledano, and Jeb Cadwell.
Ken Barnard and Allison Leber were also on hand to officiate, and field questions from the press, including some guy with a shoddy microphone, who alternately claimed to be from "Men on Men" magazine and a few other unlikely titles.
Steve O. Harvey (pictured) slipped smoothly into his emcee role and the evening was punctuated with stage performances and "man on the street" prankery. Head to the Lodge tonight at 9 to see Esposito, Toledano, Leber, Jared Logan, and Chicago Underground Comedy co-creator Tony Sam, who has packed his bags and is heading for California for glitz, glamor, and a comedy gig or two.
Comments
A quick correction:
It's CJ Toledano, not TJ Toledano.
The Lodge has to learn to enunciate better.

Correction made! That was actually a slip of the fingers. I knew it was CJ but my fingers thought otherwise.
Thank you, Ken!
