so im in a computer lab resting my brain. i have absolutely 
nothing to contribute to this message board other than the fact 
that nobody has posted in the last 5 or 6 days, and i felt like 
that streak had to be ended.

oh, jesse and howard...can you be there by 9 this week? 
goodrich, neil and i all have rehearsals, so well be there when 
we can.

I was so impressed by last night's NO SHAME that I had to write 
first thing this morning about it.  I saw so many great 
performances and such clever writing.  Some highlights, although 
keep in mind only just a few because I didn't take notes, 
include a well-written news portion written by Jesse; a very 
funny performance about 4th graders working to take over a 
school; a brand new song by Pete; Neal and Luke with a well-
crafted, articulate piece(great use of movement and words); Josh 
Goodrich performing a comedic monologue; Elysia with a well-
prepared, funny piece on her visit to the "Death Center"; and 
so, so much more(I sound like a commercial)!  I thought last 
night's show just fit together right to make a powerful night's 
entertainment. Further, I always enjoy laughing.

Hey, while I'm in the neighborhood, I'll do a review!
:1) "Story Time Wif Mo Styles" 

I thought this had some very funny moments. Great work.


2)"The New, But Not Necissarily Improved, No Shame 
News" 

I'm most proud of the stupi/not stupid part, which was only 
funny becayse it was delivered amazingly by Jeff L. Oh, and I 
wasn't making fun of Josh, I just thought he'd have really 
good delivery on the sex part. sorry.


3)"My Pet Fish" by Keith Baedke. Performed by Keith B

A pretty good song, but sometimes I couldn't understand the 
lyrics. That's why your fourth grade music teacher always told 
you to enunciate!


4)"In Your Face, It's Space"by Jeff Lenhart. 

This, as everything he's ever done at No Shame, was pure 
genius. When I turned around and saw him eating that 
floating sandwhich...well, words can't even express the 
laughter feeling I got


5)"The Party Programme" By and performed by Jesse W.

I think this was my technically best poem, with that string of 
rhymes and everything, and it also meant the most to me. It 
didn't go oevr too well, but then, maybe some people don't 
like socialism. Just remember, you don't have to feel 
oppressed to be oppressed.


6)"Paterneus at Filius" by and Performed by Pete F.

This was yet another great song. Come to his show at the 
vibe on the 16th. I'm playing bass for him


7)"The Doctor" by and Performed by Elysie H.

The part about not having time to play her nurse games was 
freaking hilarious


8)"Deconstruction" by and Performed by Dave M.

Genius. Brilliant. best of material. I don't know, but I don't 
really have enough adjectives to describe it. This one really 
touched me on many levels, and I'm just really happy he 
wrote/performed it


9)"Fourth Grade Memory #27 A"by Tim P. 

I don't think I've ever laughed so hard. Tim, if you're reading 
this, you had damn well better come back with stuff like this 
every time. Genius.


10)"I May Look Like John Belushi, but he Doesn't Perform 
Half as Well as I Do in Bed"by and Performed by Josh G.

You have the right to remain delcious, Josh.


11)"Rip the Tits Off Your Favorite Chick"by and Performed by 
Neil V.G. and Luke P.

Luke and Neil writing something together is like if Brittaney 
Spears and Justin Timberlake had a kid. It would be just 
beautiful, like this play that made so little sense, yet was 
perfectly understandable at the same time. It just shows you 
what tow geniuses can do in only a few hours.

Hey, over all, this was one hell of a great No Shame. I think I 
used the word genius about 500 or so times last night, if 
that's any indicator. I think it's best summed up, though, by 
the comments of a friend of mine. It was her first time there, 
and I asked her if she liked it, and she said the only way it 
could be better is if there was No Shame every night. Amen, 
sister.

This was really pretty funny. The highlight I was confused at 
first whether howard actually was supposed to be black, or 
thought he was, but then the bit with the cell phone turned it 
around for me. nice work.

2)"The New, But Not Necissarily Improved, No Shame 
:
News" by Jesse Wozniak. Performed by Jesse W., Howie Z., 
:
Jeff L., Peter F., Q, Mike W., Tim P., Shawn ?, Luke P.
 
lots of good bits...particularly lenhart's bit, and 
piper's "goodrich", however it did abuse the five minute rule. 
shame, shame, shame.

3)"My Pet Fish" by Keith Baedke. Performed by Keith B

fabulous. the crowd really got into it. i love newcomers, and i 
love it even more when they come back and top themselves from the 
previous show. a la dave murray...more on him later

4)"In Your Face, It's Space"by Jeff Lenhart. Performed by Jeff 
:
L, and Jesse W.

classic lenhart comedy. woz really was hilarious in his role as 
well. i think the fact that the trampoline broke added to it, 
somehow.

5)"The Party Programme" By and performed by Jesse W.

so im not a political type of guy. i dont get off on this kind of 
thing. it was a really strong performance however from woz. as 
far as performing goes, i think you were doing some of the best 
work ive seen from you tonight, man.

6)"Paterneus at Filius" by and Performed by Pete F.

cool...a song i hadnt heard from pete. it had some nice guitar 
work, though i felt it might have been a shade longer than it 
needed to be.

7)"The Doctor" by and Performed by Elysie H.

so elysia was pretty much our estrogen contribution of the night. 
we appreciate that. i do remember laughing, though i don't 
remember that much about it. your tonsils are fucking huge, 
though. i hope that goes away.

8)"Deconstruction" by and Performed by Dave M.

i think this was the highlight of my evening. not to take 
anything away from minority groups, but it seems like people dont 
realize that it aint easy being a straight white male either. it 
was very well written, effective use of visuals, plus it was 
something that needed to be said. Keep coming back Dave, you rock.

9)"Fourth Grade Memory #27 A"by Tim P. Performed by Tim 
:
P., and Shawn ?

Very funny, in that juvenile way. to me juvenile is not at all a 
derogatory word (look at what i did this show). good writing, and 
well delivered. a few people were thrown off by the gun, but it 
was well done. 

10)"I May Look Like John Belushi, but he Doesn't Perform 
:
Half as Well as I Do in Bed"by and Performed by Josh G.

i really dont remember a whole lot about this, except that it 
stuck to clean humor intentionally, which is not like goodrich. 
it was cool that you stretched yourself tonight.

11)"Rip the Tits Off Your Favorite Chick"by and Performed by 
:
Neil V.G. and Luke P.

can you believe it? our fourth semester of no shame and this is 
the first collaboration by the founding fathers? no, the title 
has nothing to do with the piece. 


great show you guys. i was really impressed with the quality from 
everybody.

do you guys realize that we have had a debut writer at every no

no shame.

so we only have 3 more shows for work that is eligible for the 
Best of No Shame. April 5th is the last date for work to be 
considered. At the show April 19, we will announce the order of 
the annual Best of No Shame, to be held May 3. 
What does this mean to you?
Its time for all of you No Shamers-- writers, performers, and 
loyal audience members-- to submit your votes for what should be 
on the program. 
While the final decision is made by the "Bored of Directors", 
your input helps us out tremendously.
Also for writers, if there is something you have done this year 
that you do not wish to perform again, let us know.
So go back through the orders of fall 2001, and spring 2002, and 
make your voice heard.

God this kid's fucked up... the sandwich thing was classic
5)"The Party Programme" By and performed by Jesse W.
Excellent poem... he needs to do more thinking about the 
socialism thing
6)"Paterneus at Filius" by and Performed by Pete F.
I love Pete's songs, but he could use more hooks
7)"The Doctor" by and Performed by Elysie H.
I like her comedy more than her poetry
8)"Deconstruction" by and Performed by Dave M.
I thought this was by far the highlight of this No Shame. His 
delivery is impeccible too.
9)"Fourth Grade Memory #27 A"by Tim P. Performed by Tim 
I liked this in a Family Guy sort of way. Keep coming back Tim
10)"I May Look Like John Belushi, but he Doesn't Perform 
Good standup... I think the quality of standup we've gotten this 
year has been excellent
11)"Rip the Tits Off Your Favorite Chick"by and Performed by 
I liked the use of words and imagry, but I had expected something 
funnier from Luke and Neil together... 
Oh,and on Q's piece... I didn't think it was that funny. His poem 
was really good, but he may need to back off the songwriting 
thing.

Hey to all I know and don't, excellent show this week.  This one 
had me in tears (specially *josh's* culinary musings and the 
coolest 4th grader I wish I had known).

Anyway, I don't know if anyone's interested in getting anything 
published in a student magazine, but you all should, cuz you 
rock.  Innerweather wants submissions of poetry, fiction, non-
fiction, artwork (in black and white format) and anything else 
anyone has.  The deadline is this Friday, and you can email it 
to inner_weather@hotmail.com or drop it off @ Baker 117.  

Yeah, so I probably should have brought this up months ago when 
I first found out about the deadline, but, well, I'm a shitty 
volunteer.  

good day, all.

in case anyone likes both my poetry and coffee at the same

Thought this was a good show.
Forgive the pointless ramble to follow, as this is my first 
posting.
I love the fact that No Shame allows us--as whatever we want to 
call ouselves--to express ideas and exchange them, and give us a 
venue to perform them for public mockery.  I cannot attend 
without being reminded of Cafe Voltaire, Cedar Falls style.  
Forgive me, I just took Performance Art last semester, look it 
up.  Anyway, I just want to say that now that I've found No 
Shame, you'll be hard pressed to keep me away, even if I just go 
to heckle.  I look forward to upcoming shows as soon as one is 
over.
Question.  Is there any kind of summer sem No Shame, for those 
of us unfortunate enough to spend our summers at home?  If it 
just means getting together at someone's apartment, I'd love to 
continue the exchange of ideas, even outside the guise of "No 
Shame proper".  Ideas?
As for Deconstruction.  I was very nervous about how it came 
across, and something I prescribe to is that a piece should not 
be limited to a fixed moment in time.  I wrote it, more than 
anything, to get people thinking, and I would love to hear and 
discuss it or your kinky little thoughts if you feel the need.
Drop me a line!

P.S. Next time, I'm bringing my amp and a microphone for any who

yeah dude, the mic and amp would be a good idea...sometimes im 
pissed if i miss out on lyrics. 
it would be a bit more difficult getting an on-campus space 
during the summer...but if there is interest, im sure we could do 
some smaller scale shows at vibe. i will also be around this 
summer, looking to bash ideas with people.

This was inspired by an interview in my home town

Grandpa. Wehn I read it, I first got the idea of Grandpa calling 
Jesus a hippie-haired faggot, and well, there goes a play

well generally i dont write about my piece, but i know i baffled 
a lot of people, so and explination. strawer-wood has a vandel. 
ever since christmas break of 2000-01 someone sneaks into the 
building and puts these signs up in every clever spot in the 
building. under carpet, in rarely used drawers, even hanging 
from the catwalks by a piece of tape. also every time this 
happens, oned of the signs is posted on the green room board and 
right beside it is another piece of paper that says "uncle mao 
says hello" with a red star under it. the digns are different 
too. it started with "tell him," then was followed by "they 
know," "it hurts," "it's you" and "not her." no one will admit 
to doing this, and no one knows who the vandel is. the range of 
suspects goes from some disgrunteled artist to a high professer. 
the best alibi i have is that i vandalize with the Q. besides, 
if i was a good enough actor to hide this for so long, rose of 
treason wouldn't be my last mainstage show i acted in.  i just 
took the "tell him" legend and created a look into the life of a 
mild mannered theatre student turned mysterious vandel.

i've seen other audiences react to this piece by nearly rolling 
out of their chairs by laughing so hard. i found it interesting 
that this audience didn't.

1. the mo' styles show- howard and mike collet
SO MUCH FUNNIER once i realized you were playing white iowan guys-
-not that the geek-playing-gangsta theme is perfect, but i 
laughed pretty damn heartily.

2. time traveling on green upholstery- jess rafoth
and the poetry wars began.  ;)

3. room for improv-ment tim piper
OH.  MY.  GAWD.  i nearly peed.  SO funny.  SO well-written.

4. jimmy mc luck, the lucky boy who had luck at everything, 
luckily.- woz
gotta say, the best part about this was the juxtaposition between 
sean and tim in the previous skit and sean and tim in this one.

5. the mind of a criminal- Q
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAhahahahahahahahahaaaaahh....

heh.

heh.

hoo.

my brain nearly split when you whipped out that scotch tape, q.  
i haven't stopped laughing since (well, on the inside).  i am so 
glad i got the joke.

6. just janie- janie flowers
well done, flores.  the poetry wars continue.

7. poemmmm- elysia hansel
and more (very good) poetry....

8. the long haired individual- jeff lenhart
jeff, take off your mask.

9. two poems (fiona do tell? and an apology)- katie fs
actually, it's "fiona: tell", but you wouldn't know that without 
seeing it written down.

was something wrong with the fiona imagery, q?  was it easier to 
hear the apology?  safer?  i am intrigued by your comment, mostly 
because i really dug the images in the fiona poem, and i thought 
the one in the apology were pretty standard, wet-v-dry thoughts.

10. god does bless america- woz
and the poetry wars commence--and brilliantly.  well-written 
indeed, woz-a-matic; you are fast replacing me as the token 
radical poet.  or so i like to think.

11. my life- performed by goodrich
stunning, josh.  really, really well-done.  i had no idea this is 
the one you went to actf with--did i ever tell you this was the 
audition piece i handed out at "girl on girl" auditions for the 
unprepared guys?  patrick shanahan made me laugh like a mofo--but 
this.  i liked this much, much better.  :)

First and Foremost, great show to everyone. To sum it up, Glad to 
see Janie Flowers perform, Jeff Lenhart kicks @$$, and damn, Q. 

I probably should have been more clearer on the intent of my 
piece at last night's No Shame. The piece I performed last night 
was unpublished material from an acquaintenance of mine, Cody 
Daigle, through Steve Taft (head of the Theatre department). 

Upon talking with Cody the playwright of this monologue, I had 
discovered that I was the first "official" (official meaning in 
front of a live formal audience) person to perform this piece of 
his, which would make my work (interpretation, telling of the 
story, characterization and so forth)of the monologue original. 

In a way, this was like F.S.'s "Dike Chorale". F.S. wrote it and 
others performed it. The only difference was Cody was unable to 
be in attendance when I performed his piece.

Sorry to babble on, I just wanted to clarify the situation for 
two reasons. One is that I don't want people to feel that they 
had witnessed plagarism  which  would then  result in numerous 
performers beginning to "borrow" other material. I am strongly 
against this by the way. 

And two, I just wanted people to know that my intent was to 
showcase a 2-in-1 original work combo (Cody's and mine). 

Thank you all.

GOODRICH

Hello, 
I had fun again at the big show.  I sometimes think I would 
enjoy the show more if I didn't go up because then I could truly 
take it in.  The truth is, that sometimes, I am so nervous 
before I go up that I don't take in to the extent that I would 
enjoy the show, and then, further, I take a couple of acts 
to "come down".  Nonetheless, this is truly a great forum.  I 
sat in the back last time, so that I could see the audience, and 
this was a hot audience. I observed them before the show, and I 
noticed they were with great energy and anticipation of fun.  I 
have never truly reviewed the show because I like the chances, 
and then, I am concerned that a review could somehow cancel the 
chances, so I avoid that consequence.  But, simply, this was 
fun.  I like the guys who wrote the IMPROV thing, there were so 
many funnies.  And The GREAT WOZ thing about LUCK.  Yes, a fresh 
talent is good to see, and the basis of the show means so much 
more---I love the inside stuff that leads to G-POP 
entertainment. Hey--that is most people's inspiration, right.  
Also, the IMPROV that wasn't really IMPROV stuff.  I hope, 
truthfully, that I get to work with these 2 guys, and I will 
pursue it vigorously, before the last No Shame.  Q touched upon 
the greatness of inside comedy, and, in fact, it was 
entertaining and intriquing to the the outsiders.  The simple 
fact that many people desired the answer made it work.  Q is 
supercool.  And Q's songs are great, and the bucket is the 
essence.  I, in particular, enjoy the one about the guy who 
protects the girl anonymously throughout his life even though 
the girl never knew it:  I love that romantice stuff:  
additionally, I have loved a million girls who have never cared 
about me.  So, the message is powerful, and caring DOES hurt. 

OK, so, I like the poetry, too.  I don't do that, but, frankly, 
the people who do, are great so much in that the message they 
convey is the feeling that exists, but is the feeling that does 
not express itself in words normally.  Katie F-S, my favorite 
live poet, is so good.  Her stuff is so smart and so fluid, and 
so admirable.  I sit there and just feel the flow and 
smartness.  And I love smartness.  Additionally, poetry is such 
a great cerebral thing to break up the silliness that shoots up
(like heroin).  Is heroin legal?  I hate so to allude to things 
that are illegal.  But, you know, the act of escaping is not 
immoral nor illegal, it is only society which deems the methods 
so.  

Keep creating.  

Jeff Lenhart

Ok, again, I didn't take notes, so I mention only the acts which 
appear in my limited mind during the brief review I do.  But, 
the show was so much fun, and I had a great time.

Goodrich,
                  That was a very good clarification. Thanks. I didn't 
mean to accuse you of plagarism, but thanks for the 
explanation anyway.

Hello No Shamers this Josh Goodrich! Just wanted to quickly let 
all of you know that I am running for the position of the 
President of the Northern Iowan Student Government Feb 26-27. My 
vice president running with me is Chris McGahan. It is important 
to note that you will not see us on the ballot so you will have 
to write our names in (or type I guess since it is online 
voting). The only guarantee we are making right now is that we 
will fight for more funding for No Shame Theatre (money for 
publicity, a sound system, and better lighting). Vote for us 
because  Chris and I see...

"NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY!" 
   -Josh Goodrich and Chris McGahan, Election 2002

Vote for us and Thank you!
