TOUR) co-headline a sensational New Year's Eve show at MERRIMACK
VALLEY GOLF CLUB, Howe Street, Methuen on Sunday, Dec. 31 at 7 p.m.
Popular New England veteran Chris Cameron hosts.Tickets are $35 ($45
at the door, cash only). All seats are general admission.
Doors open at 5:30 for the 7 p.m. show. Early reservations (5 p.m.)

Dave Rattigan has performed in Ireland, at Fenway Park, The Cape Cod
Melody Tent, South Shore Music Circus, a lumberyard, the lobby of an
ad agency, a library, and several parking lots. “There’s nothing
funny about the way he looks, until he gives that deadpan look of
his,” popular blogger Ralph Fatello (RalphsPic.com) wrote earlier
this year. “His outward appearance is something out of a mature GQ
magazine. He looks like a cross between a semi hip banker, and your
mild-mannered father-in-law …. Dave is the master of completely
dismantling himself in front of a crowd of strangers. I’m always
torn as to whether I should console him, or just laugh my ass off like
everyone else …. You know they (comics) are hitting home when the
audience starts to point at each other….” His CD was played on
SiriusXM and radio stations all over the U.S. and Ireland, and he has
appeared in regional television commercials on NESN.
With an act that’s one part Saturday-morning cartoon character and
one part pro-wrestler, Jason Merrill is a fast-rising Boston comedian
with an animated style. The latest in a line of strong comedians from
the great city of Lawrence, Massachusetts, he has impressed audiences
with his streetwise style and good-natured exuberance. He is a member
of Hard Hat Comedy – featuring three great Boston comics who are
also union builders – and has performed at the Hampton Beach Comedy
Festival. He has shared the stage with accomplished comedians such as
Juston McKinney, Lenny Clarke, Christine Hurley, Joe Yannetty, and
Steve Sweeney.
Chris Cameron has worked at comedy clubs, fund-raisers and theaters
around New England. He's been the runner-up in the Boynton's Comedy
Contest in Manchester, N.H., and the Witch City Comedy Contest in
Salem, Mass. He has shared the stage with top headliners including
Juston McKinney, Mike McDonald, Paul Nardizzi and Paul D'Angelo.
