Guys, I know you're trying to be helpful, but if you have a thought or complaint you should really e-mail one of the owners - even if it's to volunteer to help fix something. It's just not especially kind to complain in this public way.
Asaf was able to do it in 2007 because The Hideout was a co-op space then that we all clumsily tried to take care of together.

Sorry about that, I didn't think of it in that way. I'm not REALLY grumbling about it—like I said, I hardly even noticed.

I like to think that it was either the Marquee or this threads' bumpage that is responsible for all the positive press/mainstream 'prov podcast interviews/etc for the AIC (and that's every single part I'm including, politics is an bullshit).
I gotta say, when I was preparing to come back after 2+ years ready to commit completely and thus expecting results within five months... I have to say, I feel like you guys let me down! The closer I got to getting back, the more I'd grind my teeth after hearing yet another Austin act featured prominently on the internets. Wait, not just the podcasts (it would hurt my feelings to link to them now, and I assume you all know already, but I can provide examples if you're MEAN), but I took weekend workshops in three different cities in the last year alone and the entire feedback process was different from the start; usually, saying I was from Austin usually got, like, veiled insults, like that the style was "laid back". I was not anywhere near as experienced as most people here doing the the out-of-town workshop circuit, but that was my experience. Anyway, now, not so much, but word is Austin awesome improv seems to be too abundant, and I don't like it.
So if the Hideout could go back to being a co-op, or the Marquee being changed, AND/or all the other theaters LAY BACK a bit and stop producing so many god damned consistently competent players, it'd really be the polite thing. Besides, guys, I was a dbag all the time, so you do KIND OF owe me on this.
Sorry for the bumpage.

The silver knives are flashing in the tired old cafe. A ghost climbs on the table in a bridal negligee. She says "My body is the life; my body is the way." I raise my arm against it all and I catch the bride's bouquet.

We're all having a stroke.
