SF Comedy Kings

SF Comedy Kings

with Michael Meehan , Johnny Steele and Larry "Bubbles" Brown

There's nothing like a stand-up set from a true comedy veteran. They've killed and they've bombed and they've made it through everything a stand-up audience could throw at them over the years. The end result is a group of seasoned pros who have sharpened their delivery, trimmed the fat and know how to deliver a killer comic punch in any situation. Michael Meehan has been seen on The Late Late Show and Last Comic Standing. Also on the bill is Johnny Steele from the comic noir/monster film, Hey Monster, Hands off my City. "Larry "Bubbles" Brown's deadpan style has earned him two Letterman appearances.

Michael Meehan

Michael Meehan brings over 35 years of Stand up Comedy to the stage, and has appeared on countless television shows including "The Late Late Show" and "Last Comic Standing." Michael has also performed with his brothers, Howard and Chris, as The Meehan Brothers who appeared in the early years of SF Sketchfest. Michael wrote and directed "Hey, Monster, Hands Off My City," a feature length comedy film that received rave reviews from the SF Chronicle for its originality and artistry. Michael recently appeared at Outside Lands 2021, slinging his absurdity to the delight of many millennials.

Johnny Steele

Johnny began performing comedy in 1984 after quitting graduate school in a move his parents named: Operation $40K Down The Drain. But Johnny quickly got the hang of the craft and was soon performing – and drinking for free! – at the nation’s top clubs.

During the next decade Johnny went on to perform at comedy festivals, win comedy competitions, log over 20 national TV appearances, and did we mention drink for free?

In 1997 Johnny left the comedy scene to host San Francisco’s Live 105 Morning Radio Show. Guests ranged from Carol O’Conner to David Bowie to city supervisors, and both the S.F. Weekly’s annual readers’ poll and the S.F. Publicity Club picked it the city’s best show. The Chronicle called it the ‘best morning chatter show’ and also dubbed it ‘clean and smart.’ Therefore, it was cancelled in the summer of ’98 to make room for the Howard Stern Poop and Wiener Hour.

In 1999 Johnny’s career took another turn when he became co-host of KRON/Bay TV’s THE SHOW. For three years Johnny’s informal interview style and outrageous ad-lib comments kept everyone laughing. The irrepressible Johnny once told feminist photographer Annie Lebovitz that he bought her book Women because he thought it was a directory. Well, he kept almost everybody laughing.

Johnny is currently performing comedy as well as working on a number of web, radio, and TV projects, one of which is bound to take off due to, if nothing else, pure dumb luck. He is also working on a humorous solo show about his journey to find peace in a WalMart America gone mad with mindless consumption, endless sprawl, and bone jarring stupidity. And really, aren’t we all?

Larry "Bubbles" Brown

Larry Bubbles Brown is a San Francisco comedian who came up through the comedy boom of the 80s. He has appeared on "Late Night with David Letterman" holding the record for longest time between appearances by a comedian. He is a frequent opener for Dana Carvey, Dave Attell, and Rob Schneider, and is a regular guest on "Fantastic," Dana Carvey's popular podcast. Larry has realized he has to do stand up forever since comedy lacks a retirement plan.
