DESCRIPTION:Comedian Nato Green Comes Home from Totally Biased on FX in New York\nto 
 headline two nights only at the San Francisco Punchline\n\nWhat: Nato Green 
 Headlines SF Punchline\nWhen: December 19-20, 2012 at 8pm\nWhere: Punchline 
 Comedy Club San Francisco, 444 Battery St., San Francisco, CA 94111 
 \nTickets: $15 at 415-397-7573 or http://punchlinecomedyclub.com/\n\nNato 
 Green, one of the most recent exports from the legendary San Francisco 
 comedy scene, makes his first return home since decamping to New York to 
 write Totally Biased with W. Kamau Bell for FX. Nato will headline two 
 nights at the Punchline for his first billed performance since taping his 
 debut comedy album live in Oakland in May.\n\nNato Green was summed up more 
 or less accurately by The East Bay Express as, “erudite and acerbic, a 
 San Francisco-raised father, union organizer, gastronome, bibliophile, and 
 political sparkplug.” Nato is a writer for the new Chris Rock-produced 
 late-night show Totally Biased with W. Kamau Bell, which was just renewed 
 for a second season on the FX Network on Thursdays. In 2012, he released 
 his first standup album The Nato Green Party through 
 RooftopComedy.com.\n\nNato tours with W. Kamau Bell & Janine Brito as 
 Laughter Against the Machine, the guerrilla stand-up comedy tour, like 
 Doctors Without Borders with jokes. Laughter Against the Machine conducted 
 a Kicktstarter campaign to film a feature-length tour documentary from the 
 frontlines of American controversy, unexpectedly landing in the middle of 
 Occupy Wall Street and the Oakland general strike. \n\nNato was named SF 
 Weekly’s Best Comedian of 2010 and got his own cover story in 2011 for 
 getting “smarter and faster” and putting on “legendary” shows that 
 keep audiences “doubled over.” Nato is the creator of Iron Comic, the 
 Iron Chef-spoofing comedy game show that he often co-hosts with Moshe 
 Kasher. Nato's humor commentaries have appeared in Huffington Post, the San 
 Francisco Bay Guardian, The Rumpus, The Bold Italic, and more. 
 \n\n“Righteous and hilarious, bracing and a hoot, Nato Green is like 
 finding a shot of bourbon at your co-worker's stupid vegan potluck.” 
 \n--Daniel Handler, aka Lemony Snicket\n\n“The Nato Green Party is funny, 
 smart, thoughtful, goofy and political. As of now, I suffer no consequences 
 for my steadfast belief that Nato is one of the funniest comics in our 
 country, but I would stage a sit-in. If it fits in between my Ashtanga yoga 
 and zine-making classes.”\n--Maria Bamford, Comedian\n\n“Nato Green is 
 the real deal; cogent, hilarious and indispensable.”\n--Greg Proops, 
 Comedian, The Smartest Man in the World podcast\n\n“I’ve always tried 
 to provide the soundtrack to the revolution. Nato Green provides the laugh 
 track.”\n--Boots Riley of hip-hop group The Coup.\n
