It always nice seeing businesses doing good things. Memorial Day is coming up on May 27. To honor the military, Scottsdale premier comedy club, Stand-Up Scottsdale, will be having a special show before the holiday. On May 23, the club will be donating 70% of their proceeds to the Heroes to Hometowns organization. This is all in honor of one of the Valley’s fallen soldiers, Army Pfc. John C. Johnson. Johnson succumbed to his wounds when insurgents attacked his unit in Kandahar province, Afghanistan. Comedian Quinn Dahle will be the night’s performer. The show starts at 8:00 p.m. and costs $10.00. Show your support by having a few laughs.

You may remember him from the hit HBO show Curb Your Enthusiasm. Funny man Jeff Garlin will be performing at Wild Horse Pass Hotel and Casino on October 19.

Being a co-star and executive producer of Curb, Garlin has won critical acclaim as a writer, producer, director, actor and stand-up comedian.  His career includes extensive experience in TV, film and publishing including voice work as The Captain in WALL-E and Buttercup in “Toy Story 3.”

Tickets are $19.00 – $54.00 and can be purchased online here. The show starts at 8 p.m.

You might recognize her from TruTV’s The Smoking Gun Presents: The World’s Dumbest, as a regular panelist on Chelsea Lately or perhaps it was her unforgettable cameos in VH1′s I Love The 70s/80s/90s.

Regardless, she is Loni Love and she has been named one of the “Top 10 Comics to Watch” by Variety and Comedy Central, which is incredibly convenient for you, since she’ll be performing at Stand Up Scottsdale comedy club from August 23 through 25 as part of her 2012 international “Live, Love, Laugh” comedy tour.

Love’s career has proven that comedians can successfully transition from standup to TV and film. She has done it all and audiences keep coming back for her witty satire and political humor. Love will take the stage five time while in town, so don’t miss her. Click here for times or email [email protected] for reservations.
