I guess if it isn't towering above an audience, its still a stage.

We saw him on the Pretty Good Friends tour a few years ago and he was awesome; that show was with Tom Allen, Reggie Watts, and Eugene Mirman too. A very good time.

I heard her on an NPR show a few weeks ago for the first time where she was blending comedy with the story of her mom's death and her relationship with her stepdad and was really impressed with her storytelling. Listening to her first CD now and there's some really good stuff here. I'll listen to that piece you posted when this is over.
