Fortune Feimster was great, and I mean great live. Really good at reading the crowd
Without doing crowd work. Roy Wood Jr. made me laugh out loud hard. Less famous, Alex Babbitt is great and very charismatic. Alison Leiby is crazy talented but extremely neurotic. I love her sense of humor. I used to be the sommelier for a wine and comedy night. So I have been lucky to see a lot of the top up and coming comics in the city. The comedy talent is very strong right now. I think despair makes the comedy better even if it hasn't caught the zeitgeist yet  Previous Message
I'm no expert on the subject, but I enjoy the crowd work guys like Ian Bagg, Jeff Arcuri and Michael Blaustein.
