WHAT THE HECK IS THIS?
You're receiving this message because, at some point in
the past, you expressed interest in the Van Gogh-Goghs
sketch comedy group. This may have been sincere
interest, or you may have simply nodded vaguely as one
of us blathered at you about the group. In any event,
here we are. You can get off our list by following the
directions at the end of this here message.
===
WHO ARE THE VAN GOGH-GOGHS?
Eh, we don't have time to get into that now. Go to
<http://www.vgg.com/vgg/pressindex.html> for the gory
details.
===
NEW VAN GOGH-GOGH NEWSLETTER
As you may have noticed, you're reading a newsletter. A
Van Gogh-Gogh newsletter. And you know what that means:
you're spending too much time reading and not enough
time telling your friends about the Van Gogh-Goghs.
(Jeez, what kind of a lousy friend are you?)
It also means that you've received a copy of THE THEO
REPORT, the new, approximately monthly newsletter of
the Van Gogh-Goghs. In it, you'll find announcements of
upcoming shows, news about individual projects and
standup appearances, info about new stuff on the Web
site, exclusive email-only comedy, and other fun crap.
You'll even get discounted admission to Van Gogh-Gogh
shows! Pretty darn cool, huh?
Oh yeah...feel free to pass this along to your pals and
encourage them to sign up themselves at
<http://www.vgg.com/vgg/bookindex.html>. We'd do it for
you.

VGGS ANNOUNCE JANUARY SHOWS
That's right, after nine months of sitting on our
asses...uh, that is, "writing," the Van Gogh-Goghs are
finally returning to L.A. area stages. We're rested,
ready, and raring to perform "Comedy 101: Sketch Comedy
for Non Majors," our new, education-related show. Can
you say "prizes"? Can you say "memorabilia"? Can you
say "jhvh"? Yeah, we didn't think so, smarty.
We've scheduled two performances of "Comedy 101," so we
hope to see you at one of the shows. (Hint: if you can
only go to one, head to the second one. It's a bigger,
snazzier place.)
