Brian Gaar has been a newspaper reporter and editor for more than a decade. But his secret passion is standup comedy, dating back to 2003, when he first performed at a Waco college bar. He 'killed,' which is comedy slang for, 'He tried to do 20 minutes and his sister had to shout down a heckler.'
Brian hosts a weekly comedy showcase,
'It's Always Funny with Brian Gaar,' at the Velveeta Room in downtown Austin.

South By Southwest Comedy posted its full lineup today - and it’s as stacked as always.
I counted more than 60 comics in all, including Reggie Watts, Marc Maron, Doug Benson, Mike Birbiglia, Kristen Schaal, Wyatt Cenac, John Hodgman and Eugene Mirman, and that’s just for starters.
Local comics (and Austin alums) include Brendon Walsh, Chris Cubas, Howard Kremer, Martha Kelly, Mike MacRae and Nick Mullen.
The comedy portion, which runs from March 10-17 will include showcases, panels as well as some big-name comedy podcasts, including WTF with Marc Maron, Doug Love Movies with Doug Benson and You Made It Weird with Pete Holmes.
