Saturday Night Dinner @: MBIP World Headquarters
This actually happened a week ago from last Saturday. I was still on my blog break but wanted to see the comedy show at the Jukebox Comedy Club and so since I was in break mode, I thought I’d make a home-cooked meal before the show rather than going out to eat. So I went over to Schnucks to gather up some grub…
Here’s what I got: A T-Bone steak, Steak ‘n Shake Crispy Fries, Green Giant Corn in a Butter Sauce and some Wing and Cholula Hot Sauce.
And throught the magic of these here interwebs…
Here’s the meal, all cooked up and ready to be devoured!
Everything looks delicious and let’s start off with the side dishes.
I made the french fries extra crispy and dipped them into a dipping sauce made from the Wing Sauce, the hot sauce, a little soy sauce and other condiments. The fries were crispy and the dipping sauce added to the flavor. I also added some of the Wing Sauce to the corn and it was a tasty treat as well.
This was a fabulous start to a delicious Saturday night dinner!
And now on to the star of the show, the T-Bone Steak!
I broiled it and it was cooked to perfection! Very tender, tasty and juicy! The dipping sauce complimented it perfectly!
This was a wonderful Saturday night dinner and now it’s time to welcome the host of tonight’s show, The Jukebox Comedy Club!
The Jukebox Comedy Club
Here we are at Peoria’s only comedy club, The Jukebox Comedy Club. This place has been bringing in top-notch comics from all over the country since 1990!
Tonight the headliner is none other than Brent Terhune! I’ve enjoyed his online videos and I’m anxious to see him live and in person! Let’s go inside and see what’s happening!
There’s the familiar island in the center of the bar area of the front room of the Jukebox Comedy Club adorned with local legends Richard Pryor and Sam Kinison.
I saw a familiar face behind the island and it’s none other than the owner of the Jukebox, Dan Conlin! Always great to see Dan and catch up with him! He said things have been going great here at the Jukebox and it’s always a pleasure to see Dan here!
Stephanie was on duty at the island and here she is serving me up a beer with a beautiful smile.
Some of the upcoming comedians include, Louis CK and Mick Foley and there’s the poster for tonight’s headliner, Brent Terhune.
And speaking of Brent…
Here he is hanging out before the show! I had a nice chat with him and I asked him if most of his act was done in the redneck ranting character he’s made so famous online and he told me that’s just a small portion of his stand-up act. He said he’s been doing stand-up since he was a teenager and I’m anxious to see his entire act tonight!
He’s performed at the Jukebox in the past and he told me he enjoys Peoria and the people that come to see his shows at the Jukebox. Very cool and Brent’s very nice guy!
After I took Brent’s photo, I posed for one with him and then took a photo of him and Stacie who saw the first show and said she’s a big fan of Brent’s!
Okay, it’s just about showtime and as I went in, I saw Regan Shute who’s a regular here at the Jukebox and she’s been on the blog many times. Here she is with her boyfriend, Dan Ibrahim and they’re both on the bill tonight, so we’ll be seeing both of them again on stage!
Speaking of the stage, here it is! There’s the jukebox, a protrait of hometown hero, Richard Pryor and the guitar that no one ever plays.
Dan warmed the crowd up for the show and he gave myself and the MBIP blog an introduction which was very nice and I was honored that he did that!
And now…it’s showtime at the Jukebox Comedy Club!
The host for the evening was Ryan Hallam with stand-up comedians, Brandon McAfee, Regan Shute, Dan Ibrahim and the featured comedian, Lou Palomino.
They were all hilarious and did wonderful stand-up sets! I loved how Regan and Dan included bits about their relationship together and realized that they better not break up because they’ll lose half of their material! They truly have a relationship bonded in humor!
And now, ladies and gentlemen, the star of tonight’s comedy show…
Brent came on stage and absolutely killed it from the minute he walked on!
His set was hilarious and the crowd loved him. In addition to his set material, he also had some fun off the cuff interaction with audience members that was improvisational and hilarious.
Brent delivered a wonderful evening of stand-up comedy and it was a fun and entertaining evening. You should definitely come and see him the next time we’re lucky enough to have him visit us here in Peoria at the Jukebox!
Brent ended his set with the redneck ranting character and this was a wonderful show and another fabulous evening at Peoria’s only comedy club, the Jukebox Comedy Club!
Thans to Dan, the comedians and everyone who came to the show for a wonderful and fun evening!
