SATURDAY 08
COMEDY: Ben Bailey
Comedian Ben Bailey is probably most recognized as the host of
Cash Cab, the popular game show that was resurrected this past year. However, hes also had a solid career as a headlining stand-up comic and has started dabbling in music. In 2019, he released an album under an assumed name, which he refused to share with
CityBeat. I want the music to stand on its own, he says. On the comedy front, he still writes about whatever strikes him as funny. Ive got a bit on people asking, Hot enough for ya? I have section on why people are building houses for birds, he says. Its just random stuff that I find funny. With 65 new episodes of
Cash Cab in the can and airing on Bravo, Bailey plans to be on the road roughly every other weekend this year, including a stop at Bogarts. Locally-based Kelly Collette features. 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 8. Tickets start at $35. Bogarts, 2621 Vine St, Corryville, bogarts.com.
