Chicago Underground Comedy and the Lincoln Lodge Under One Roof

...so four months after moving to Chicago, my roommate Nellie is one of the new producers of the Lincoln Lodge, which means the two biggest alternative stand-up showcases in Chicago are centered around a household full of girls who cry watching Animal Planet and believe in the healing power of pot roast dinners and cupcakes. This can only be a good thing.

Woo! I know, Erica, I can't help but think that the touch of two squishy-hearted but smart Midwestern girls will add a lot to the stand-up scene here in the next year.
