May 2021—June 2023
New York City

“Kevin James Doyle is no stranger to finding unusual places to stage live stand-up.” (New York Times)

In May 2021, indoor performance venues were still shut down in New York City due to the pandemic. I had purchased a motorcycle, and my garage in the Red Hook neighborhood of Brooklyn, Low Tide Motors, seemed like the perfect place to host an outdoor show. Comedy is typically an indoor activity but open air shows were all that was available. So I called up Wild East Brewing for some beer and Defonte's Sandwich Shop and Dog Day Afternoon for some food, and put on a show.

Over eight shows I invited guests to perform, including Joe Pera, Jordan Jensen, Janeane Garofalo, Ophira Eisenberg, Casey James Salengo, Brittany Carney, Luke Mones, Dan Perlman, Brad Howe, Doug Smith, Josh Gondelman , Jo Firestone, Marcus Monroe, Emmy Blotnick , Chloe Radcliffe, Sean Patton, Norlex Belma, Kendra Cunningham, Jamie Lee, Sara Hennessy, Zach Zimmerman, Erica Spera, Julia Shiplett, Petey Deabreu, Damien Lemon, and Courtney Maginnis.
