Celebrate July Fourth Weekend with
Three Days of Headline Comedians
Activities during Independence
Day weekend should be full of three
things ... fun, frolic and laughter.
Chinook Winds has the laughter covered
with three comedians - John DiResta,
Kivi Rogers, and David Anderson.
Since being named New York’s
Funniest Cop in 1994, DiResta has had
two television shows (Trash to Cash,
DiResta) and can be seen in How to
Lose a Guy in 10 Days and Miss
Congeniality. He appeared with Robert
DeNiro in 75 Minutes and returns to the
big screen in Miss Congeniality Two.
His television appearances include
The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and
Politically Incorrect, plus being a guest
on the infamous Howard Stern Show.
Friends and relatives say Rogers
always was gifted with quick wit, a
thousand voices, and a knack for mischief.
He’s been showcased at the HBO
Aspen Comedy Festival and appeared
in the films The Amati Girls, What 1 Did
For Love, and Romey And Michelle’s High
School Reunion. He’s also guest-starred
on several TV series. More recently, he’s
appeared on NBC’s No. 1 late-night pro­
gram, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.
Anderson has accomplished some­
thing few comedians can claim - he’s
funny without being offensive. His career
began at a weekly comedy showcase in
Portland, Ore.
In 1986, he was asked to appear on
the CBS Morning Show. This convinced
a producer at rival NBC that he was
funny. Two weeks later, he was hired as
a staff comedy writer for NBC’s
comedy game show Wordplay. Soon, he
was busy appearing on An Evening at
the Improv, Fox’s Comedy Express, and
VH-l’s Stand-up Spotlight.
Anderson currently is a contributing
writer for The Tonight Show with Jay
Leno and co-host of the Show on KEX.
Comedy on the Coast begins at 8 p.m.
Doors open at 7:30 p.m. for this age 21
and older event. A no-host bar will be
available. Tickets are $12.
