<p>« Wedding Photos Recovered | Main| Tybrus: You're Out Too Far @ The UCBT - 8.17.6 » Friday Aug 18 2006  New Talent Discovered: TJ Miller!</p>
<p>Friday, August 18, 2006 at 12:18PM</p>
<p>Prescott Tolk and TJ Miller</p>
<p>Last night, Chicago's TJ Miller took the UCBT stage with Prescott Tolk for a special performance of Bombast. The Bastion has been raving maniacally about TJ since day one. Even Jane Borden at Time Out New York got a good shirtsleeve tug from her midcoast sibs: "This Windy City show comes highly recommended from our compatriots at Time Out Chicago. See it for yourself." Not to slight Tolk, because he did a fine job of wringing giggles out of the crowd--but it's Miller who's being hailed as "The Golden Child of Chicago."</p>
<p>THE VERDICT: He's fast, fluid, has the delivery of a self-assured Conan O'Brien, and is more comfortable on-stage than a sleeping lamb in a pit of Mogu pillows. TJ has all the markings of a comedy megastar and we're very excited to see what's in store for him.</p>

<p>What is this "Chicago" you speak of? August 18, 2006 | Anthony TJ Miller is one of the most naturally funny standups I've ever seen. August 18, 2006 | Mandy Stadtmiller And to think, I've interrupted serious conversation with these two lads to ask for more beer money. Who do I think I am!? Seriously though, they're both amazing, as individual artists and as collaborators. August 18, 2006 | Michelle Eastwood Wow TJ, congrats on your success. August 19, 2006 | Heather Re: "The Golden Child of Chicago"</p>
<p>One really hates to be the Colbert'er of bad news, but let the truthiness speak for itself: you are not from Chicago if you're not actually from Chicago.</p>
<p>Wake up, Improv scenesters. Mr. Miller and Mr. Tolk are surely fine, promising comics. But check the BIOs.</p>
<p>To call them "from Chicago" is a slight against the B.Murrays, C.Farleys, H.Sanz's and other future comics who were actual golden children in Chicagoland.</p>
<p>August 20, 2006 | Mr. Boz Sabeti TJ and Prescott are great. For more of them and the other top Chicago comics, check out www.blerds.com. August 20, 2006 | Brido Responding to Heather's comment-I agree-but Farley grew up in Madison, WI and and went to college at Marquette in Milwaukee. He didn't come to Chicago until he was 23.
