Jon Bolden, exposed!

Post by Jastroch »

This week's Stool Pigeon. Satuday night, 8pm at ColdTowne. If you're reading this and you're not a spam bot, then you get in for free.

Jon Bolden is a photographer / web designer / scooter enthusiast residing in Austin, TX. Originally from rural Ohio, Jon moved to Austin to pursue creative things after a failed music career (mostly instigated from a freak vocal injury). His photography has been displayed in national collegiate magazines, Spin, Alternative Press, small galleries in Ohio, and been purchased by old ladies who love photos of bridges. He assisted web design work for Barack Obama’s campaign site, Pez, and almost got to work on the merchandise store for YouPorn. He dreams of spending more time on the water, less on the computer, and ultimately buying his parents a house.

He’ll be spinning yarns in this week’s all-star story-based improv show, Stool Pigeon. The cast of Stool Pigeon reads like a Who’s Who of Austin improv. Each week, a different cast of improvisers, sketch comedy writers, and visiting guest stars come together to twist the stories of a local celebrity guest into completely improvised scenes. Sponsored by The Onion.

The Austinist’s TrueCraig on Stool Pigeon: “…that shit’s mad-impressive-pressure-awesome. And what they’re doing for the cultural development of our fair city shouldn’t go unnoticed.”

This week's cast:
Teresa Kubos
Justin York
Michael Williams
Tim Honker,
Katie Sicking
Jericho Thorpe
Josh Krilov
Michael Jastroch

Tell me 5 things I don’t know about you:
1) I lost my voice and had to have vocal surgery
2) I was a late bloomer in many aspects
3) I have a major sweet tooth
4) I grew up around volunteer fire fighters and love that subculture
5) I have terrible anxiety and without exercise I would destroy myself

Tell me 5 things everyone knows about you:
1) I am a photographer
2) I am a bachelor
3) I love improvisational theater
4) I look young for my age (and get carded everywhere)
5) I make quality websites with geek power

Tell me 5 things you wish we didn’t know about you:
1) I am from rural Ohio and most of my former friends from home still say “fag” a lot
2) I lost my virginity at a late age
3) I can’t dance
4) I only got to play improv so much cause my friends own theaters
5) I voted for Bush the first time
