Live Wire

If you listen to OPB, you are probably familiar with Live Wire. I can best describe it as a radio variety-type show with skits, bands and interviews with guests and LOTS of comedy throughout. They tape the show live once a month at Aladdin Theater. My hubby loves to listen to the show on OPB so we finally attended a live taping in May. I didn't have any huge expectations since I don't really listen to the show. Wow! It was so much fun! Each segment had me laughing like crazy. The subject-matter is very Portland-centric and slices up current events in perfect entertaining bites. Adding to the entertainment are the funny mistakes, re-dos and slightly raunchy comments that will be edited out of the radio show. The Aladdin also serves pizza, snacks and beer.

You can listen to the show on OPB every first and last Saturday at 7PM or better yet, attend the monthly live taping! Check out their website for more info and tickets.

Ever been to a taping or a fan of the show? Let me know what you think if you check it out!
