A few years ago in Aspen, Colorado, the U.S. Comedy Arts Festival, or USCAF, presented a foulmouthed midnight comedy show entitled USCAF-U! Amid the famous standup comics telling dirty jokes, the most memorable performer was the emcee, Louis C.K. Though his material can be racy, there's also a courtly decency to the man, and he repeatedly mentioned how uncomfortable he was with the mandate to work blue. (In typical C.K. style, his reluctance was so endearingly hilarious that he stole the show.) He gets another shot tonight as host of the Nasty Show, the designated hard-R showcase at the Just for Laughs Chicago comedy festival.
