Adrian McCoy from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette recently sat down with Jimmy Krenn to discuss his upcoming show at the Byham Theater:
\”Audiences who\’ve been missing Jim Krenn\’s locally grown humor can reconnect with the Pittsburgh stand-up comedian and former radio host at \”Jim Krenn aLive,\” a comedy/music variety show headed to the Byham Theater on Saturday. A portion of the event\’s proceeds benefits Animal Friends.
His guests include fellow stand-up comics Billy Elmer, Frank Nicotero and Mark Eddie, along with artist/writer/filmmaker/performer Tom Megalis, and several musicians: Scott Blasey, lead singer of The Clarks, country/rockabilly singer Slim Forsythe and the Rod Schwartz All Star Band.
\”It\’s going to be a mixture of where I\’ve been, where I am, where I\’m going,\” Mr. Krenn said.
…The show is also a way of saying thank you to his loyal listeners. \”I\’m just overwhelmed by the listeners\” since his exit from the WDVE-FM morning show. \”They are still behind me so much. I read all the posts online. They\’ve made it an actual nice experience for me. Kindness can be medicine in a lot of ways.\”
