LOL WITH IT: Tuesday Night Live @ Kung Fu Necktie, 8/30

Ryan Carey takes a look at who and what's giving Philly the giggles ...

Kung Fu Necktie is holding it's first comedy variety show Tuesday night hosted by Northern Liberties' own Maureen Costello. Aptly named Tuesday Night Live, the show will feature standup, sketch and improv from some local LOL WITH IT favorites. Here's the lineup:

Fastball Pitcher Bob Gutierrez (pictured) pitched for the world famous Chicago Cubs Baseball Organization from 1979 until 1987. He likes talking about baseball, specifically the days he spent playing. He, ahem, wasn't very good.

Jon Goff is a comedian who gives Power Point presentations narrated with jokes — the way we all wish they did it at the office. (Hand in your laser pointers at coat check, please).

Pasiónes de Pasiónes, a fully improvised telenovela, features three white boys who used to settle for Telemundo when nothing else was on, but now

they kinda like it. This show has it all: warring families, corrupt priests, vindictive matriarchs, convenient amnesia and the best high-school Spanish they can muster.

Doogie Horner - Everything he knows, he learned on the streets. Except for graphic design. He learned that at a TCBY Treats in Bristol.

Iron Lung, former PHIT cage match champions, will have you laughing so hard you'll be breathless. You'll require a large machine that can breathe air for you, preferably made of metal. I don't know if such a device exits, but it DEFINITELY wouldn't be covered under PPO.

Musical guest: Richie Rich and the Poor People!

Tue., Aug., 30, 8 p.m., $5, Kung Fu Necktie, 1248 N. Front St., 215-291-4919, kungfunecktie.com.
