New York vs. Boston Comedy Series

The New York vs. Boston Comedy Series, Round 7, Hits Collinsville again: where New York Comics and Boston Comics meet half-way.

TEAM BOSTON: TOM DUSTIN
In his first year doing stand-up, Tom Dustin won the Sam Adams Comedy Contest, beating out more than 50 comics and discovering a taste for Sam Adams. Since then, he’s toured the nation, working alongside some of the nation’s top acts like Nick Dipaolo, Jim Norton, Dave Attell, Doug Stanhope and Jim Breuer. At home, Tom has been a staple at the Boston Comedy Festival and a respected figure in the Boston comedy scene. Onstage, Tom's unmatched likeability allows him to push comedy to its limit without fear. Offstage, he’s a mean, self-hating manic-depressive who unsuccessfully tries to be a good person up to two days per week.

TEAM NEW YORK: KEVIN DOWNEY, JR.
Extraordinary comedic force and hailed columnist, *Kevin Downey, Jr.* has been recently labeled "refreshingly bizarre" by fellow comedian Joe Mulligan. Kevin headlined small rooms all over the U.S. and enjoyed a cult following, (that means only 28 people dug him), until his sonic boom of popularity yielded consistent shows in Las Vegas and world wide, bringing him to a new level of notoriety. You pick a basic cable channel and Kev has ben on it. Most importantly, Kevin headlines shows at military bases around the world. From San Francisco to Singapore, Kansas City to Kuwait, Detroit to Djibouti, Kalamazoo to Kwajalein... You get the picture.
