Mitchacross Last night beers were poured, glasses were raised, and 9 comedians gave a stand up filled tribute to late comedy genius, Mitch Hedberg.

Leo Allen played MC and recalled the first time he met Mitch. They were playing a show together and Leo mentioned he had just come from acting class. Mitch characteristically responded that he noticed Leo seemed more real than usual.

Everyone had strong sets, but Arj Barker, who plays Dave on Flight of the Conchords, was definitely a highlight of the night. He shared some theories on global warming and did a hilarious impression of Pluto (yes the planet).

Bill Burr came in as a surprise guest to finish up the night. He stole the show with his take on old man mannerisms and explaining why thoughts of pie drive him to consider suicide.
