"INVITE THEM UP" CD/DVD SET ON TUESDAY, DECEMBER 6


NEW YORK, December 5, 2005 - "Invite Them Up" is the insane brain child of stand-up kings Eugene Mirman and Bobby Tisdale who, every Wednesday night, in a small Lower East Side NYC club, invite the best emerging and established comedic talent to try out their new material. Released via COMEDY CENTRAL Records, "Invite Them Up" CD/DVD will hit stores on Tuesday, December 6 and be available in stores nationwide and at shop.comedycentral.com

"Invite Them Up" is a triple CD combo with a DVD thrown in for good measure. It contains nearly five hours of the best new material from David Cross, the guys from COMEDY CENTRAL's "Stella," Todd Barry, Demetri Martin, Mike Bribiglia, Slovin & Allen and 20 additional comedians. Also included are musical performances from Craig Wedren (Shudder to Think), Marcellus Hall (Railroad Jerk, White Hassle,) and Langhorne Slim. This is the comprehensive document of the best new New York stand-up.

"Invite Them Up" has over 200 minutes of all meat, no fat, stand-up comedy. The DVD compiles more than 100 minutes of extra and extended performances including the famed Fuggedabuddies routine, bonus Eugene Mirman videos and much more. Plus it's crazy cheap.

COMEDY CENTRAL Records has previously released "Dane Cook: Retaliation," D.L. Hughley's "Notes From The GED Section," Todd Barry's "Falling Off The Bone," Jim Gaffigan's "Doing My Time," Denis Leary's "Merry F#%$in' Christmas," Mitch Hedberg's "Mitch All Together," and "Strategic Grill Locations," "Lewis Black: Rules Of Enragement," "I Don't Mean To Insult You, But You Look Like Bobcat Goldthwait," "Dane Cook: Harmful If Swallowed," Dave Attell's "Skanks For The Memories" and Jim Breuer's "Smoke 'n' Breu."
