 Arj Barker and Ed Byrne, The Basement - smh.com.au
Hip Californian comic Arj Barker once remarked of his act, "People think I'm having a nervous breakdown on stage." With this gig, though, it was more like a warped temper tantrum.
Barker, who is a regular on the international comedy circuit, usually succeeds with a surreal and cerebral blend of manic and mellow, cool dude and dag.
Inspired moments, such as Barker's musical devotion to "Shpants" (his name for three-quarter-length trousers), the vagaries of car dashboard lights that pointlessly flash "check engine" and his sudden and bizarre "craft suggestion" to fill a paper bag with newspaper and staple it to a paper plate to make a turkey, were fantastic.

One morning this week, Marin comedian Arj Barker sipped a cup of green tea at the Book Depot in Mill Valley as he talked about his new solo show, "Ego No Amigo," a satirical take on one of our signature homegrown products: New Age spirituality.
Much of Barker's material is informed by his Marin County roots, including the spiritual satire of "Ego No Amigo."

On the stand-up stage, Barker has found that laughter is a way for him and his audiences to truly experience the transcendence of being in the moment.
