Anyone is , . form. : stay We want to provide a place West of Asheville for people to enjoy and perform comedy, said Tom = Sch- eve, a writer and performer who edits Asheville Dis- claimer, a weekly satirical ' feature in Mountain Xpress. We encourage anyone from Haywood County, Jackson * County, Swain County and > beyond to come out, enjoy a craft beer on the patio - next to the river, and check out some free hit-and-miss comedy on Monday nights at the No Name riverpub. No Name Comedy is co- produced by Sylva perform- er Shucky Blue (As seen on Facebook, he boasts). Scheve, who co-pro- welcome to sign up and per- : duces Disclaimer Stand-up . -Lounge in Asheville on Wednesdays as well as Dis- claimer Underground Com- edy at Ashevilles The Mag- netic Field, said he performs $ several times a week, which ultimately led to his decision to start an open mic closer to his current home in Cruso. If I want to perform on a Monday night, I have to drive aot two hours: one-way ~ to Scheve said. But I needed something closer to home. Then I came across Sylvas No Name riverpub, and I knew if a comedy open mic could make it anywhere outside of Asheville, it was there: That, Scheve adds, and Waffle House said, No. Scheve and Blue hope the weekly event attracts a mix of river hippies, burn- outs, failed academic-types, refugees, mountain-bred neer-do-wells, doctors and nurses who have grown to dislike their patients, and hi- larious marijuana farmers. No Name Comedy open mic will occur every Mon- day at 8 p.m. on the outdoor patio of th No Name Sports Pub. First-time perform- ers are always welcome, as are more experienced per- formers who need a venue Greenville, : SG, where some friends of - mine run an excellent mic, to work on their material.
