&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Donning his trusty referee jersey, Josh Filipowski opened the final show of the month-long event, warming up the crowd well and closing with applause after he tagged a failed joke with, “That is why I’m not &lt;em&gt;in&lt;/em&gt; this contest.”  Next, 2010 MCM finalist- Mike Lawrence, in town from New York for writing projects, performed his magic on the microphone.  He played for the crowd, and against them, and back to them, toying with the entire concept of comedy and crushing while at it, especially for the on-looking comedians.  He set the audience right up to keep showing love for the final four competitors about to follow.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Starting off the competition, Jamar Neighbors hit hard with his seemingly sporadic and spontaneous stories; delivering big laughs to defeat Dan Madonia who’s mellow methods didn’t grab the audience as shows past.  “I can’t wait for the 4/20 Highlarious show,” Madonia mentioned off stage as a good sport knowing his crowd as Neighbors moved on to the championship round.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Adam Yenser and Bryan Dey battled on the other side of the brackets.  Adam’s consistent hits and pace proved perfect in propelling him through to victory.  Bryan Dey brought it too, charming the crowd with consistent laughs.  The vote was close, but Yenser edged ahead.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Between the Final Four and Championship round, 2011 Champion Samba Schutte graced the stage and crushed with his complete comedy; showing off his multi-lingual, multi-cultural, multi-hilarious takes on the whacky world we live in where some horses have more movie credits than actors.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;In the coin flip before tipping off the championship match, Jamar Neighbors elected to perform after Adam Yenser.  Yenser opened strong and stayed solid all throughout with funny stories from his past like when he lived in New York and locksmith would leave a business card at his door every day. “It’d make a better ad if he left them inside on my pillow.” He was smooth like Steve Kerr in a 3 point contest.  Draining 3 ball after 3 ball, the crowd was his.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Neighbors then led the crowd to big laughs with family stories and got topical with Trayvon Martin. “How do we know he didn’t steal those Skittles in his pocket?”  He worked more like Kobe Bryant.  Where is he going next? And swish he delivers.  In the end, the perpetual punchlines and TNT tags of Yenser reigned supreme.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;“His jokes are so well written! I can see why,” Neighbors said.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;March Comedy Madness 2012 brought out 64 competing comedians, amazing special guests (Eliot Chang, Rob O’Reilly, Rick Shapiro, Justin Martindale and above mentioned), packed &amp;amp; pretty-packed houses and a month of maddeningly amazing stand-up.  It was the 6th and another successful year of Madness for Josh Filipowski and Like 2 Laugh Productions (&lt;a href="http://www.like2laugh.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.LIKE2LAUGH.com" target="_blank"&gt;www.LIKE2LAUGH.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;).  As comedians mingled in the greenroom Neighbors added, “Thank you [Filipowski] for making comedy fun.”&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The newly crowned champ Adam Yenser (&lt;a href="http://www.adamyenser.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.AdamYenser.com" target="_blank"&gt;www.AdamYenser.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;) graciously accepted his title &amp;amp; check and acknowledged all his hardworking competitors. “It was a lot of fun and all the comedians were great especially Jamar Neighbors.”&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;He got more than money and bragging rights (you can tell he is not much of a bragger).  “Winning $250 dulled the pain of not winning the $650 million in Mega Millions,” he quipped.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The Champ’s prize package includes a guest appearance on Toad Hop Network’s Sports Cast: broadcasting from Jon Lovitz Comedy Club (&lt;a href="http://www.toadhopnetwork.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.ToadHopNetwork.com" target="_blank"&gt;www.ToadHopNetwork.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;), acting classes with New British School (&lt;a href="http://www.newbritishschool.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.NewBritishSchool.com" target="_blank"&gt;www.NewBritishSchool.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;), headshots by Gijs van der Most (&lt;a href="http://www.thatheadshotguy.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.ThatHeadshotGuy.com" target="_blank"&gt;www.ThatHeadshotGuy.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;) and a scheduled weekend spot at The Comedy Store, La Jolla (&lt;a href="http://www.thecomedystore.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.TheComedyStore.com" target="_blank"&gt;www.TheComedyStore.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;“I’m looking forward to that,” the champ said before heading home to work late, as the writing never ends.  We are looking forward to more from Yenser.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;em&gt;MARCH COMEDY MADNESS 2012 LA&lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;em&gt;In honor of the &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;NCAA&lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;College&lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt; Basketball Tournament, 64 comedians go one-on-one in this comedy competition hosted and refereed by Josh Filipowski and &lt;a href="http://www.like2laugh.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.LIKE2LAUGH.com" target="_blank"&gt;www.LIKE2LAUGH.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. In each round, two comics perform standup head-to-head and the audience decides the winner! As the field is narrowed down, sets get longer and more hilarious, until the final two comics perform and a champ is crowned 2012 March Comedy Madness Champion.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Referee, host and producer Josh Filipowski of Like 2 Laugh Productions tipped the show off, warming up the crowd before truly special guests Boom Shaka Laka in drag shocked and Crank Williams awed.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Then the Sweet 16 took the stage with some close comedy competition.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Adam Yenser power packed punchlines edged out Hanoch Serebrenik whacky charm in a 30 second joke-off after both having destroyed.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Yenser’s superlative writing, impeccable timing and off the cuff callbacks carried him past maddening middle school math teacher –or- pot store clerk? Cornelius Peters in the following round.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Noteworthy New Yorker Joe Praino crushed with tales of late nights back in NY where his delivery guy was also his drug dealer. “Falafel with extra white sauce, huh? Extra white sauce?”&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;He was followed by San Antonio transplant Bryan Dey who won the crowd over with his hilarious takes on the cute Mexican army and plenty more (see him for yourself next Friday).&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;In a nail biting joke-off it appeared Praino had the bigger laugh, but the crowd held strong for Dey which propelled him through the Elite 8 where he continued to bring it, passing him on to the Final 4.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Around the other side of the brackets, the powerfully present what-will-she-say-next Faith Choyce fell to Brooklyn’s own Rome who got everybody wondering, “Where is Brooklyn really at? Seriously there is nobody there. They’re all out representing!”&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Rome’s Kingdom then fell to Jamar Neighbors who has been simply slaying his way through the Madness.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Jamar’s tales have held true and his 30 second knack of knock-out joke-offs left the Belly Room belly aching.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The last puzzle piece brought us the battles of Madonia - Fager and then Madonia - Singleton.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;First round Doug Fager had the audience in his hand and slipped out of bounds with his final joke.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Audience, uncomfortable from AIDS, was eager for a laugh and Dan Madonia granted more than one.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;His stony demeanor and awesomely funny attitude towards drugs and life, and doing drugs with him in your life, led to laughter and applause and a victory which continued past Jessica Michelle Singleton in the Elite 8.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;JMS had rushed over from Brea IMPROV where she had hosted for Bobby Lee.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Unfortunately that rush seemed apparent as she raced the clock. Her outrageous flagrant attack on Adele and fat friends had everybody wanting more time for her to truly let lose and do her thing.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Her rattling jokes-per-minute style was no match for the chill easygoing holy-shit-that-was-funny Madonia.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;To break up the 16 and 8 rounds the Belly Room of The Comedy Store was blessed from right off the screen of &lt;em&gt;Project X&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Rick Shapiro brought on huge guffaws as he fired his fierce stream-of-conscious off the wall comedy.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Get this man his own Comedy Central Presents already.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;And for the winner of the tourney TOO, to be determined by YOU, the audience, next Friday as the Final 4 and Championship alley-oop slam dunk in-your-face March Comedy Madness 2012 Champion is crowned.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Catch the final rounds of Madness Friday, March 30&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt;, 10pm in the Belly Room of &lt;a href="http://www.thecomedystore.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span&gt;The World Famous Comedy Store, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;8433 Sunset Boulevard.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Visit &lt;a href="http://www.like2laugh.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.LIKE2LAUGH.com" target="_blank"&gt;www.LIKE2LAUGH.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href="http://www.thecomedystore.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.TheComedyStore.com" target="_blank"&gt;www.TheComedyStore.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt; for tickets and info.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;SINBAD. Memba’ him? When stand up comics just had one name? And a show? And a purple double pleated suit with an african pendant a la “Do The Right Thing”?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you don’t remember Sinbad, please watch old episodes of The Red Fox Show, The Cosby Show, It’s a Different World, &amp; Good Burger .. um, yes..I just referenced Good Burger..because he is funny, amazing, and one of the pioneers in this stand up cross-over acting business. Um, what was my point? Yeah..we got to photograph Sinbad. This is one of our fave shots. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This was taken on a hot Los Angeles day. Sinbad had on a black spandex running shirt (clearly he’s going for a jog), a crucifix gold chain, matching ear piece (cause you neva’ know who’s gonna call, right?) accompanied by his cheetah towel. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thank you, gods, for answering my prayers. &lt;/p&gt;

As the field is narrowed down, the sets will get longer and more hilarious, until the final two comics each perform 10 minute sets to crown the 2012 March Comedy Madness Champion!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="yiv2025080609MsoNormal"&gt;&amp;#8220;The Madness has proven fast-paced, loose and fun for comedians and audience alike. It&amp;#8217;s not a contest - it&amp;#8217;s Madness&amp;#8221; -LA Examiner&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Introducing our new game called:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“Don’t Be A Di*k During Meals With Friends.”&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The first person to crack and look at their phone picks up the check.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Our (initial) purpose of the game was to get everyone off the phones free from twitter/fb/texting and to encourage conversations.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Rules:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1) The game starts after everyone has ordered.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2) Everybody places their phone on the table face down.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3) The first person to flip over their phone loses the game.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;4) Loser of the game pays for the bill.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;5) If the bill comes before anyone has flipped over their phone everybody is declared a winner and pays for their own meal.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Variations/house rules:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;-Starting the game after everyone is seated.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;-In the rare event that multiple people flip their phones simultaneously, the bill is split between said players.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;- Feel free to invoke penalties/strikes systems.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Notes:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;- No touching or messing with anybody else’s phones.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;- You don’t have to stack the phones. This was done for picture taking purposes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;- I realize I should perhaps think of a different name for this awesome game. Because I don’t mean to imply that everyone who checks their phone during meals is a di*k.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;- I recommend not being such a stickler or hardass on people about the rules and even initiation of the game. Basic premise is to just get people open to the idea of staying active and attentive to one another. But if someone has to take a call; they have to take a call =).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;- Have fun! It’s really more of a fun concept in this new age high tech life of ours. Conversation is the spice of life.&lt;/p&gt;
