If you’re in the greater New York City area or northern New Jersey area, I’d encourage you to consider attending a comedy benefit for suicide prevention on Oct. 18 at the State Theatre in New Brunswick, NJ. 100% of the proceeds will be donated to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. Jim Florentine is organizing the benefit because he lost his girlfriend to suicide. All tickets are $43.
The comedy lineup for the night includes:
Jim Florentine
Artie Lange
Vinny Brand
Don Jamieson
Chuck Miganelli
Eric McMahon
Tom Cermack
This is a good deed for a good cause and we encourage you to check it out.
