And it’s over. Invite Them Up’s 6 year run has come to an end. Pretty much every comic said it was the best room in New York. A place where they could all come and test out their material and fuck around and have a great time. I have been going since I first moved to NYC and I met a ton of rad people and laughed myself to tears. Highlights from the night included Baldo’s 30 Seconds Of Stand Up dance party, Demetri’s touching eulogy/set, a standing ovation for Eugene & Bobby and Jon Benajmin putting his own urine into the Invite Them Up time capsule. It was amazing. I took over 600 photos. Here was the last line up ever:

Kristen Schaal
Jim Gaffigan
Eric Slovin & Leo Allen
Todd Barry
Chelsea Peretti
DJ Craig Baldo
Mike Birbiglia (enjoy your Google Alert)
Jon Benjamin & Jon Glazer
Demetri Martin

RIP.
