Nick Flanagan's new stand-up comedy set @ Monarch Tavern, Thursday

Toronto cut-up Nick Flanagan is recording his set at the Monarch on Thursday for a new comedy album. Sara Hennessey opens.

Writes The Flanster...

"This is a real big deal, my friends! I haven’t  released a comedy album in YEARS and now is the time for jokes that make you go ‘hmm’ in every possible way. 

"On September 5th (a Thursday, what a cool night!) at the historic Monarch Tavern - maybe you saw Jon Daly or Dave Hill perform there (name dropping is cool this year) I, Nick F will be recording an album of standup comedy. 

"The wonderful Sara Hennessey will be flying down from NYC to perform a set AND there will be musical guests. I’d love to see you, thanks for your support and thank you to Not Dead Yet for putting it on and Dan Burke for the use of this great venue." – Nick Flanagan
