Darren Carter was recording his second CD at The Ice House Comedy Club in Pasadena on February 13th, 2009. Carter performed and recorded two sold out shows that cold and rainy night. Slated for June 2009 release, the yet untitled CD is now going into post productions. In the meantime, Carter will be performing at Funny Bone in Cincinnati, Ohio this weekend.

February 14th, 2009.
Laugh Factory Long Beach had two sold out shows on one of the most ridiculously made up day of the year, Valentine’s Day. Patrons were lining up outside the venue, waiting to be seated. Temperature was steadily dropping as the night rolled on. The first show was scheduled to go on 7:45 PM, and the host of the show didn’t get to take the stage an hour later. Darren Carter was one of the comics to perform on the first show. Having just recorded his second live CD the night before, Carter entertained the audience with his staple bits.
The audience for the second show started lining up outside the venue shortly after the first show started. The second show started close to 11:00 PM, 85 minutes later than scheduled. Last minute line-up changes took some of the fans by surprise as some of them came to the show to see certain comics. Some fans expressed their disappointments when they found out the comic they came to see were seemingly replaced at the last minute. Jill-Michele Meleán was scheduled to host the second show only to be replaced by Frazer Smith without explanations. Meleán ended up hosting Midnight Show at Laugh Factory Hollywood.
Overall, the night was a smashing success. The Valentine crowds were entertained and the venue had two huge sold out shows. There are a lot of wrinkles for Laugh Factory to iron out to make itself the destination for attraction in the Long Beach area. Laugh Factory Long Beach is no stranger to last minute line-up changes. On its grand opening show, many comics were advertised but ended up absent from the show.
I love the new features in iPhoto ’09, especially Faces. I also am aware that Faces still has a lot of room for improvements.
I’m a little bit spooked with what iPhoto ’09 sees that I could not. There’s a face in the sky, is it a ghost?
January has been a relatively idle month, because I have been preoccupied with a lot of things. There are a lot of news that I could repost here, and there are a lot of subjects I could blog about.
Catching up on the “blogging” a little bit, these are a few things I’ll be talking about in the coming week:
I’ve been playing with iPhoto ’09 for the past few days and planning to post a few fun stuff I found.
I guess I’d better stop slacking and write some more.
Before I forget, I’m eyeing Panasonic HDC-SD100 AVCHD Camcorder.
P.S. Carlos Alazraqui and Jill-Michele Meleán will be performing at The Ice House Comedy Club in Pasadena on February 5th, 2009. Be There!
Apple introduces new features to iPhoto ’09 such as Places and Faces.
Faces automatically scans iPhoto library right after the upgrade, and it might take a while to process all the data. I have 3368 of assorted pictures in my iPhoto Library, and I’m looking at a good 80 minutes for my 15-inch MacBook Pro Core Duo 2.0GHz to process Faces data.
I’m going to post some screenshots from faces, if I remember to.
