Dana Gould

January 26th through 28th

Cap City Comedy Club

In his own words...

“I was born and raised in the ironically-named town of Hopedale, Mass. I started performing stand-up comedy at the tender age of 17. As a performer, I was too young to be any good. As a person, I was socially inept and looked weird. Let's skip ahead.

I moved to Los Angeles in the halcyon days of “The Comedy Boom,” and in quick succession, I performed in several HBO specials and numerous appearances on “Conan” and “Letterman.” I recorded the CD Fun House - which was called “a comedy CD” by Billboard Magazine, and appeared on “Seinfeld,” “The Ben Stiller Show” and the series “Working” - which wasn't, and was soon canceled.

After writing the pilot “World On A String “with Jay Kogen) I co-created MTV's lamented “Super Adventure Team” with Rob Cohen. I then joined “The Simpsons” for seven years.

Stand up remains a big part of my career, and I still perform regularly. I appeared in the film The Aristocrats and have a new CD/DVD due that came out in March 2009. I live in Los Angeles with my wife and a bunch of kids and dogs. I think we had a hamster, but I haven't seen it around.

I regularly do commentary for the wildly successful Lucha Vavoom promotion. It's a little bit Mexican pro wrestling, a little sexy burlesque, a little bit comedy and a lot of fun. I tend to say witty things while grown men playfight and women do a striptease. No, you may not change places with me.

Dana Gould performance are on Thursday at 8 p.m. and Friday and Saturday at 8 p.m. and 10:30 pm. Tickets are $9 to $19.

Capitol City Comedy Club is located at 8120 Research Blvd. For tickets and information, call (512) 467-2333 or visit www.CapCityComedy.com.
