Jim Gaffigan in Spokane, Washington

Dear friends in the lovely Oregon, I want to thank everyone who bought tickets to my upcoming shows in Portland. I’m pleased to announce that due to demand a second show has been added and is on sale NOW. NOV 2nd - 7PM Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall Portland, OR NOV 2nd - 10PM Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall ONSALE SEPT 19 @ 10am Portland, OR If dog is man’s best friend, then Catsup is definitely food's best friend. Catsup is always there to help out or improve something you are eating. “These fries need catsup” or “I’m having Mac and Cheese for the 4th day in a row – this time I’ll add catsup and pretend it’s Marinara sauce”. You know what I mean. Sadly, it seems we only realize how important catsup is when you don’t have it. We’ve all had the moment when we discover we have more fries than catsup? It ain’t fun brother. What if there never was Catsup? I know it’s scary thought. What if there was no tomato. That’s even scarier. No tomatoes means no catsup, probably no Italy. Who knows, maybe no Carla Gugino. When was the last time you held a catsup bottle in your hands and said “Thank you catsup”? A while? Maybe it’s time you gave some props to the king of all condiments. I love you and you know how I feel about catsup, Jim

I wonder if Seattle and Portland ever get tired of being paired together. After all, they are two very distinct cities in different states. I don’t think they are sister cities like Minneapolis/St Paul. I’ve been to both cities a bunch of times and really do love them. However, I don’t know much except one is all about running shoes and one is about computer stuff. One is about suicide and the other is for runaways. One is about coffee and the other one is for the runaways. (I watch a lot of MSNBC Documentaries). Either way, I’m spending a weekend up in the majestic Northwest in these lovely cities. My shows go on a pre-sale Wednesday morning before the general public has access on Friday. (Seattle password is bacon) Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall Portland, OR November 2nd AND Paramount Theater** Seattle, WA November 3rd ** special password for seattle is "bacon".. I love you and the majestic Pacific Northwest, Jim P.S. All shows are open to ALL-AGES. Say hey at the meet and greet after every show that is open to everyone.
