If he can get it done in time, Devo will also be premiering his second short, a comedy called Talk to the Hand. Friday: 2pm Dumb Parody IdeasA fast-paced, loosely organized contest to see who has come up with the dumbest parody idea. We present them in a rapid fire rotation as guests and even audience members get up and perform a verse and chorus of their dumbest song. Keep it short and move on to the next one. The winner is chosen by audience vote and will win the coveted Golden Spatula! You are limited to 3 songs, with a maximum of 90 seconds each. We'll be taking entries from the audience at the event. Be ready to go! Friday: 8pm What The FuMP?How's your dementia knowledge? Are you the ultimate comedy-music fan?
