Demetri Martin Performs in DC
I saw Demetri Martin perform Thursday night at the Lisner Auditorium at George Washington University. Some of you may recognize him from his Trendspotting segment on The Daily Show. He's actually a long-time standup comic in New York City (originally from New Jersey) who has finally managed to make a living out of it.
A sample:
"Sort of" is such a safe saying, its a filler, you can say it after anything and it fits most of the time. But sometimes its just not the right choice of words like when you say things like...I love you (sort of), or...You are going to live (sort of).
The show was hilarious. I even got a chance to say hi to his mom, afterwards, who's a family friend (the whole Greek connection comes into play, here). So, if you live in a city that he's coming to during his tour, I highly recommend getting tickets. Boston readers, take note-- he'll be performing at Berklee School of Music on October 28th.
