The people behind it
Dieter Nuhr
Is it true that happiness essentially consists of a little bit of health and a lot of bad memory? And if so, why isn't there an app for this yet? Gruber ponders whether sunsets are overrated or whether she simply has a burn-out or hypersensitization - triggered by a low-lactose tolerance intolerance? It explores the question of whether a child is capable of learning a trade, even though it is highly gifted? And: Are we all politically correct Corinthians* or is Monika's mom perhaps even happy when she has to call her "the parent" in a politically correct way in the future? One thing is certain in all of this: you can never please everyone and everything turns out differently than you think anyway, which ultimately doesn't matter, because: "There's always something"!
The program Szybcy i Śmieszni is a set of skits with which Paranienormalni have already amused audiences throughout Poland. So the time has come for this program to be recorded, and for another DVD of the cabaret to hit the shelf of the most loyal fans. However, the best cabaret numbers require a proper setting. Paranienormalni recorded their new album at Warsaw's Polonia Theater, surrounded by thoughtful and elegant scenery. Among the skits that Paranienormalni put on their latest release there will be plenty of the greatest hits, but also a large portion of surprising moments. On the album we will meet both extremely successful parodies - Robert Makłowicz, Czesław Mozil and famous stars of breakfast TV, as well as characters created by Paranienormalny, who have been associated with them for years. Mariolka will talk about the charms of relaxation in the SPA, Jacek Balcerzak will again try to get a medical certificate, and a famous aged professor will give a most energetic lecture.
Thousands of sharp jokes aimed at those in power, hundreds of personally signed petitions, countless charity performances for a wide variety of good causes, numerous charity wine auctions, and several hundred liters of beer personally consumed in support of Ute Bock's refugee aid project: Thomas Maurer's record as a do-gooder is undoubtedly impressive. Who could blame him for gradually developing a certain longing for a slower pace of life, serenity, and his own garage space in the house? Because, of course, mental space is the most important thing. But a spacious apartment also has its advantages. What could possibly be the problem?

Judgment Day was a combination Halloween party, game developer convention, informal press conference, and entertainment event for the public at large organized by Microsoft and held on October 30, 1995 - also called "Devil's Night". Primarily organized by then-Microsoft employee and principal architect of DirectX, Alex St. John, the event brought together 35 game developers, including id Software, who were given centre stage for the event via inclusion of the finals for Deathmatch '95, a previously organized and officially sponsored DWANGO multiplayer tournament for Doom and Doom II. Doom95 would play a pivotal role in the event as a part of Microsoft's continuing strategy to promote Windows 95's potential as a gaming platform. The event also served as the official release party for Raven Software's last Doom engine game, Hexen: Beyond Heretic.

On an ordinary night, in an ordinary part of town, a beautiful young woman walks into a bar. Her name is Jewel, and before long she is chatting to bartender Randy. The pair leave together, but he ends up getting into a tussle with her criminal boyfriend, who she then shoots dead, later persuading Randy to take the rap for her.

It’s always been a dream of mine to do a show at the Fillmore. The name itself is synonymous with legendary performances. Countless iconic musicians and comedians have been on that stage. To be a part of that history was something I’ll never forget. As much as I was trying to keep my head together before the show, I couldn’t help but feel like a tourist or just some random dude who won a contest. LET IT GO represents the culmination of material I developed on the road from 2008-2009. As always thanks to everyone who came out to my shows, laughed at the funny stuff and stared during the bombing. I hope you enjoy it. – Bill Burr
