A water main break curbed my plans to hit up HG and the Rustic Goat on Saturday night. Y’all know a flood can’t stop my flow, so I decided to scoot on over to IP54 to catch the artist formerly known as Ashy Larry from “The Dave Chappelle Show” aka Donnell Rawlings on stage for the first time.  I found out he was in town after hearing an interview he did with Osei the Dark Secret on 100.3 The Beat. Usually when comedians do interviews they have you cackling for dear life, but I didn’t crack a smile– no diss to my boo Osei. I said “well maybe he’s saving ALL the jokes for his stage act instead of sprinkling in some funny to entice folks to stop through.” I’ll never know. When I got to the IP54 I heard three different stories from three different folks. One security guard said there wasn’t a comedy show. Another one said the show was cut short. Jessie Taylor told me to come back and Donnell would be there for his Funny Sundays set.
