Is that a re-purposed awning or is it supposed to look worn and dirty?

Lots of service vehicles parked out front today. Must be putting the finishing touches on. I can't wait to start laughing.

I hope they improve the sound-proofing between the club and Hermanns.
I don't want to hear any yuking while I'm listening to jazz.

CHEK TV wonders if Yuk Yuk's and Heckler's can survive.
http://www.cheknews....y-clubs-186054/
I still have my doubts. A very inexperienced operator, and they are charging $20 + $1.50 fee per ticket, + tax, Heckler's is $12 all in.
5 Nikki Payne shows this weekend, that seems like a lot, dunno.

I thought that Yuk Yuk's required their comics to sign an exclusivity contract but I may be wrong. It's a large room (~165?) and that can be tough on the performer if it's only half full.

230-something, they said on radio the other day. They also said they bought some tables which were too big, that had hoped to fit more. Did I mention inexperienced operators?
Kevin Stobo (?), 5 shows next weekend, Mike McDonald weekend after and Brett Martin (?) first weekend in July. More guys I've never heard of through July.
So with fees, Yuk Yuk's is $22.50 or more. I dunno, are you going to get a decent crowd at 8pm on a Thursday night? And the second Yuk Yuk's show on weekends is a 10:30pm start. That might be late for a Mike McDonald crowd in this town.

I just grabbed a couple of tickets online for Mike MacDonald.
I thought he was a goner. He was pretty sick a while ago. It will be good to check both him and the venue out.

Rumour has it that Yuk Yuk's is closing after only ~6 months in business. Anyone heard anything to confirm?

Could it be a busy and popular Xmas party season?

Called to check, no answer then voicemail, even though it said I was calling during "phone monitored hours".
