From our partners at Helium Comedy Club:
Comedian Jimmy Pardo will be performing at Helium Comedy Club located at SE 9th & Hawthorne on August 26th-28th. Show times are 8pm with an additional 10:30 show on Friday and Saturday. Tickets range from $15-$25.
Years of delivering this cutting edge style comedy has earned Jimmy the respect of his peers and along with it, the moniker “comic's comic”. This reputation has earned him invitations to perform on “The Tonight Show starring Jay Leno”, several appearances on “The Late Late Show” and his own half hour special on Comedy Central. Jimmy has also found a comfortable home on television, living his dream of hosting a game show on Game Show Network's “National Lampoon's Funny Money”. He has also hosted episodes of VH1's “The Surreal Life”, NBC's “Late Friday”, VH1's “Love Lounge” as well as co-host of AMC's “Movies at our House” for five seasons.
Acting appearances include guest spots on “Monk”, “That 70's Show” and “Becker”.
Unafraid to tackle any medium, Jimmy recently acted in the Dreamworks' studio version of “Dreamgirls” (which he was cut out of… let's see if it makes the DVD… he didn't!) and the indie features, “Relative Strangers” and “The Godfather of Green Bay”.
As for the world of theatre, he is the co-writer and star of a critically acclaimed one-man show, subtly titled, “Attention Must Be Paid: The Jimmy Pardo Story” and a live pilot presentation, “Jimmy Pardo's Dance Party”. His podcast “Never Not Funny” was named “Best of 2006 and 2007″ by the iTunes staff. It also won “Best Comedy Podcast 2008” at the Aspen Rooftop Comedy Festival.
Tickets can be purchased by visiting www.heliumcomedy.com or by calling 888-64-FUNNY.





















I would love to go Saturday at 8pm! Laughter is the best medicine! :)
I meant to say Thursday at 8! :)
I would love to come see the show Friday at 8PM because California shows smelled so badly of smog I decided to take the chance with rain. By the way, where is it???
I’d love to go Thursday at 8 because none of your damn business that’s why. Sorry, I have rage issues.
I’d love to go to the Thursday night show! I’ve heard Jimmy’s podcast but never seen his standup and I’m pretty sure it’ll be amazing!
Jimmy on Saturday at 8pm!
We don’t have tix for Saturday. Please read post again…the top part that is highlighted.
Thursday, ’cause my kid is at camp! Woo!
I would looove to see Jimmy Pardo because he makes me want to pee my pants and I’m too broke to actually buy a ticket!
Which day/time?
Friday anytime would be amazing!
Comedy is funny. I can afford the drinky part. I want to laugh. Yes, please. Weekends are best for me! And I haven’t had the opportunity to hit up Helium yet!
Please put which show you are wanting to see (day/time).
I would love to attend the Friday night show at 8pm.
I would truly love to win tickets to see Jimmy Pardo on Thursday at 8pm because by 10:30, I will have forgotten the entire day. It’s kind of a Memento thing…I’d rather not talk about it. I’m sorry I brought it up….I would truly love to win tickets to see Jimmy Pardo on Thursday at 8pm because by 10:30, I will have forgotten…
laughter is so contagious & the great belly ache that comes with it is well worth it! Jimmy Pardo sounds fun it’ll be our 1st time at Helium also… & last Thursday of summer, what more could a lady ask for??
This would be a very fun start to the weekend! I want to go!
oops I just noticed..Friday at 8pm, please!
Thursday at 8 would be great. Jimmy needs all the support he can get. I feel bad that he’s having to pull that tic out of his face.
I meant tick.
Why would I like to attend Jimmy Pardo’s show at Helium Comedy Club? Frankly because I could use some “new material” to laugh at! My life is “comedy” for the most part & I am tired of laughing at myself. Sunday night would be awesome! Thanks so much for the updates as to “What’s-What” in PDX. I love this town! char
**%#@*! KEEP PORTLAND WIERD !*@#%**

This is so exciting! Thanks Julian for picking a winner! Me! I will also post my thanks on Facebook to show all of those “doubters” out there what they are missing out on! I will definately be at the show tonight! Have a great weekend Julian! char

Looking for Friday27 10:30 show. Good times Thanks
Would love tickets for either day . . . sounds like a great show.
Saturday @8—b/c my friend from SF is visiting and thinks Jimmy is funny!
Thursday night at 8PM, Friday at 8PM, Friday at 10:30PM are the choices.
I totally want to check out this new club and all it has to offer our amazing city! Plus, Pardo is freaking awsome… it would be great to see him perform!
Man, comedy is the way to go and Helium is the club to go to. My daughter is starting her stand-up career and we have been to check out Open Mic but now, the opportunity to see LIVE comedy. I would appreciate this opportunity for tickets to take her. Thanks
Hello good Sir,
I have actually heard Helium is a spanking good time looking to hit it up Friday 10:30 for man on stage action ;)
Friday at 8PM please! Can’t wait to see the new Helium Club… and who doesn’t love a fun night of comedy?
I have had difficult past few weeks with work and moving …I have never been to comedy club. I could use some good and hearty laughs to end my work week @ 8 pm.
I’m not a very funny guy and I got this hot date. So going to the Helium with free tickets will get her laughing and get me off the hook!
I have never once been to a comedy club and have always wanted to go. I am a laugher! I just moved back to Portland after being away for nearly 5 years. Times have been tough this summer and it has forced my girlfriend and I to focus on free things to do here in Portland(which there is a lot and i love it!) Yet, I would be grateful to finally be able to take her out for a change as well as experience my first comedy club alongside getting to know Portland again!
Oh my god thursday night at 8 would be a dream come true. I really need some laughter in my life right now. This would be such a great escape.
Thursday was yesterday…confused…time machine?
Helium comedy would be so awsesome. when people use helium to talk that funny for me already and now a professional do it. that would be epic!
please specify time tonight (8 or 10:30)
I’d like to win tickets to the friday 10:30 show because my boyfriend and I have had a horrible week and we could really use a laugh.
tickets Friday night @ 8pm…pleeeeeaaaasse.
Hey hey… waddya know? I won something!! Thanks so much for the Helium Comedy Club tix, PDX Pipeline… I expect we’ll have a fabulous time.
It’s our 6 year wedding anniversary and we would like to go to the show tonight (saturday). Help us laugh to make it another great year together!!!!!!!!!!
