Dana Bein is a funny guy. As the stand-up comedy instructor at ImprovBoston, he's funnier than me and people respect him.

1977. YOU GO INTO A WENDY'S WITH BRIAN ENO AND DAVID BOWIE. WHO WOULD YOU HAVE TO APOLOGIZE FOR MORE?

Tiësto. Just the name itself inspires thoughts of trancey beats, laser lights, E pills and Europeans with a shitton of hair gel.

Taylor Locke is the dreamy lead guitarist of California's Rooney. Unfortunately, you've probably heard of Rooney from Fox's The O.C., or even their recent tour with Disney darlings/demons, the Jonas Brothers.

Lewis Black once sat next to me at a Radiohead concert, and then left early in something of a displeased tiff. He looked angry. I wondered, is he angry all the time? Now I know the shocking truth: not really. He's mainly just gently ornery, in an agreeable, get-the-hell-off-my-lawn kind of way. Onstage, Black is what you call a screamer, a member of the hilarious but tiny fraternity of stand-up comedians whose brothers have included Sam Kinison and Bill Hicks. And, with those two long gone, few comics out there manage to touch absurd brilliance with flailing, shouting and cursing the way that Black does. Given the venom of his political material, it's surprising to realize that Black might be the biggest name in the comedy world not also reviled by some large sector of it, unlike cable guys (or Dane Cooks) that we could name. Part of the reason must be his affection and dedication to stand-up itself, along with a relentless touring schedule that has him coming back to Boston in a month for a book tour. We talked about Radiohead, his years as a playwright, and his impending 60th birthday. Oh, and we also talked about how his bus almost hit a car during this interview.
HOW ARE YOU?
Ah, it gets better every day, doesn't it?
I SAT NEXT TO YOU DURING A RADIOHEAD PERFORMANCE SOME YEARS AGO AT BONNAROO. YOU WALKED OUT EARLY.
It didn't make sense. I've never really listened much to them. And I was kind of excited. And then I thought, "Hmmm...this is a long night."
