HAVE SOME DIGNITY, DIRECTED BY MICHAEL DUBIN AND STEVE PEDULLA (THURSDAY), NOW AVAILABLE DIGITALLY VIA EQUAL VISION RECORDS
Legendary independent rock label Equal Vision Records and Neil Rubenstein are excited to announce the digital release of Have Some Dignity, the Long Island-bred comedian’s one-hour, debut stand-up special. Available for streaming and purchase on all platforms now, Have Some Dignity is the hilarious work of a large, bearded and heavily tattooed man with a soft and kind delivery that plays against type for a man who “can’t sit outside a bar too long before someone hands him their ID to check.” To celebrate the release, Rubenstein has announced a number of performances across the spring, summer and fall in support of Have Some Dignity. Tickets for all shows are available via Rubenstein’s site HERE, and a full listing of dates, including appearances with Ashley Gavin and Liz Miele, can be found below.
Comedy wasn’t Neil Rubenstein’s first profession; in fact he’s lived many lives that ultimately make his comedy more compelling. Growing up in the punk rock scene of Long Island, Rubenstein was both in bands (Sons of Abraham) and tour managed them (Taking Back Sunday). He’s found himself backstage at more concerts than one could count. Having had some unusual life experiences outside of music — he ran an illegal poker room, owned a brothel, and had a stint as a gambling expert on TV — provides a solid bedrock for his stand-up, whether it be discussing celebrities he resembles, his tolerance for illicit substances, the awkwardness of traveling, or his self-awareness of having an ex-wife more attractive than him.
Neil Rubenstein will be making the following U.S. appearances throughout 2024. Dates below with more to be added soon.
