You often hear music buffs marveling at the enormous number of bands and musical artists spawned by the Austin local scene--it is impressive, and if this were a music club, we'd probably address this phenomenon in gushing terms and excruciating detail. But this is a comedy club, so I hope it's okay if we instead speak of a similar, if less splashy scenario: The Austin comedy scene has likewise produced some uniquely gifted and highly successful funny folks--Johnny Hardwick (voice of "King Of The Hill's" Dale and former writer-producer on that show) and Howard Kremer and Brad "Chip" Pope (stars of "Austin Stories," co-writers of various HBO & other network pilots and shows) come quickly to mind.
