As we all know, sometimes in life things do not work out the way you had planned. And so, for some of you, attendance at last night’s Videogum “Back to School” comedy show and party just wasn’t possible. Perhaps you do not live in New York (weird), or maybe you are not 21 years old (diapers), or maybe you are sick. Get well soon! For the rest of us, last night’s event was a reminder that sometimes in life things work out PERFECTLY. What a fun show, ladies and germs! There was a great turn out, but even more importantly, there were great jokes. With performances by Gabe Liedman, Joe Mande, Max Silvestri, John Mulaney, and a foot-long party sub provided by Jon Glaser, it was already one of the best nights of comedy you could ever see, but add to that surprise appearances by Jenny Slate and Judah Friedlander and now your head is spinning in circles because that is just unbelievable. Well, believe it. Hopefully we can do more things like this soon, because it was a very good time, and if you are capable of having more good times, why would you ever pass that up? Come on. Now you’re the one who is being silly.
For those of you who couldn’t make it, or for those of you who could make it and love remembering things right away, please enjoy this photo gallery. It’s hilarious, I’m sure. (Photos taken by the incredibly talented Alex Reside.)

That looks like almost as much fun as my evening on the couch, in boxer shorts, watching a rerun of “Jersey Shore” and eating Trolli Sour Gummi Worms.
you didn’t even make it to the new episode?
Speaking of Jersey Shore did you notice Gabe’s arms? They look like they should be beating someone senseless on the board walk.
Gabe is such a juiced out gorilla.

Gabe, you are so buff and handsome. Come to Virginia, plz.
this sounds promising. do it.
Someone has been working on his triceps.
He shows a bit of arm, but not too much. He’s da BOOM king. (Gabe)
Wait, is Gabe back in our good books yet?
I was thinking the exact same thing — in addition to being a tad uncomfortable by the Tigerbeat fascination over Gabe’s arms. Gross, gang. Gross.
What, don’t you have a photo of Gabe in your wallet?
I like a little more man in my wallet.
Is anyone else concerned about Gabe’s buff right arm and his disturbingly atrophied left? Perspective is weird.
I blame easily accessible internet pornography.
It was probably a botched Photoshop job.
Wow, did Max lose some weight, He’s looking great!
That’s Gabe Liedman.
I’m glad Jenny Slate is going out and doing stuff and not moping around after being fired by SNL
Ugh, I am SO FUCKING PISSED that i missed this. i live in Brooklyn! The one goddamn night I’m out of town! Please make this a yearly event.
Also: that is at least the second time Jon Glaser has sent a giant party sub to a comedy show because he “couldn’t attend” and then showed up anyway, and it is never not funny. You guys are all just the best. I’m such an idiot.
Gabe, what do you bench? As in. Do you date me? No homo.
Gabe’s all beefed up! I don’t think I realized he was so beefed up. Should we be concerned about juicing?
I think we should be worried about the feud Bing is trying to start; ‘Gabe Delahaye OR Gabe Liedman’. Can we not choose both, Bing?! BE REASONABLE WITH YOUR DEMANDS, BING.
*jumps off cliff*
I think walking Birdie has given him his guns, and she’s also motivated him to stay in shape
GTL, baby. Gabe takes Levitra.
“Takes”??? You mean “Shoots”???
I’m kind of jealous dudes. Though I did get to see the two-hour season finale of Rookie Blue, a show I’d never seen before, and drink 2 leftover beers from Labor Day.
Upvote because that is exactly what I did, if you switch the leftover beers to some girly vodka that someone left in my freezer.
P.S. That show is not very good!
Don’t I know it! My housemate was like, “This show is kind of like Gray’s Anatomy.” And then I was like *shoots self in face*.
Don’t shoot yourself! WHAT KIND OF MOTHER ARE YOU?

Seriously, great night — so much fun! EW gives it an A+. Don Draper holds its hand and makes furtive eye contact.
Welcome to Videogum BLAM To School Comedy Show, your in-your-face guide to Videogum’s Back To School Party. Ahhh Gabe, it looks like he’s really been working out his arms. Or is it BLAMMING out his arms?!?
Well, well, well, if it isn’t BLAMMY Slate!?!?
I’m so upset I missed this!
As am I, and I don’t even live that far away! But I didn’t have a place to crash/had class the next day.
UGH, someday………
Amrit, call me.
SERIOUSLY
love your photo shop skills.
Why did you draw Ohio on his face?
“So posting screencaps of Keenan’s facial expressions is what passes for humour on the Internet now?”

So meta.
Whoa, what are you saying?
seriously. dont ever stop.
TWSS
Thanks for teaching me all about tampons and masturbation, Jenny Slate! One-woman show, please?
Had a great time last night! Gabe, thanks for getting all dressed up for the occasion! Zing.
I looked great.
You sure did. No homo.
You did! Total homo.
JEALOUS
Looks cool! Now if only there was a video of these jokes… DAMN YOU PICTUREGUM!!
yes, I want video too!
Gabe, you’re looking rather Situation-esque. Without the grease and the STDs, of course.
Gabe, are there any plans to turn this even into some sort of DVD package available only for monsters? Because I need to see these standup performances.
Seriously, I NEED to see them.
I can see myself in a photo (my worst nightmare) standing against the wall! This was the one event in the history of my life where everyone else out-nerded me and got there earlier and snagged all the seats. At least I got to be Mrs. Cool Stance in the back…? (I would’ve given anything, including Gabe’s abs, for a seat.)
Hey Max Silverstri! You are ADORABLE
Can everyone please stop telling me how BUFF and ADORABLE I am???
Joe Mande! I’m calling you out! What happened to your T14TT segments? I need more Avatar Makeup Tuturial in my life. Is Gabe giving you summers off?
Thankfully there are no pictures of my n’ boyfriend on the couch in the back. i looked rough, despite my videogum t-shirt (which i thought would be one of many… wrong. nerd). Also, FYI, I was the chick during Max’s set with the Coldplay tattoo… damn white wine for whispering in my ear that it would be funny to say that out loud to a room full of people who are far cooler than I.
