Summer forecast for Neil Hamburger: chance of laughs

Summer forecast for Neil Hamburger: chance of laughs

What do you get when you cross The Jerky Boys, Tony Clifton, and a “punk-rock” musician? A very polarizing character, that’s for sure! America’s funnyman Neil Hamburger practices a different brand of stand-up comedy. For the uninitiated, Mr. Hamburger may appear crass — as some of his signatures include: holding several cocktails with one arm, clearing his throat directly into the mic, and constantly berating the audience. No matter whether you love it, hate it, or don’t get it, if you miss out on one of Neil’s upcoming North American dates, the joke’s on you.

Also Neil’s 2007 (tour-only) album Hot February Night has been reissued on Drag City. You can check it out here and then read our review here.
