New Year's Eve Comedy at Merrimack Valley Golf Club

Dave Rattigan (SiriusXM, NESN) and Jason Merrill (Hard Hat Comedy 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.) are recommended for those wishing to eat dinner at the restaurant before the show.

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.
